Paul Ryan’s Budget Plan: More Big Tax Cuts for the Rich
No surprise here, but the tax cuts in Paul Ryan’s 2013 budget plan would result in huge benefits for high-income people and very modest—or no— benefits for low income working households, according to a new analysis by the Tax Policy Center.
TPC looked only at the tax reductions in Ryan’s plan, which also included offsetting–but unidentified–cuts in tax credits, exclusions, and deductions. TPC found that in 2015, relative to today’s tax system, those making $1 million or more would enjoy an average tax cut of $265,000 and see their after-tax income increase by 12.5 percent. By contrast, half of those making between $20,000 and $30,000 would get no tax cut at all. On average, people in that income group would get a tax reduction of $129. Ryan would raise their after-tax income by 0.5 percent.
Nearly all middle-income households (those making between $50,000 and $75,000) would see their taxes fall, by an average of roughly $1,000. Ryan would increase their after-tax income by about 2 percent.
Ryan would extend all of the 2001/2003 tax cuts, and then consolidate individual rates to just two—10 and 25 percent. In addition, he’d repeal the Alternative Minimum Tax, reduce the corporate rate from 35 percent to 25 percent, and kill the tax provisions of the 2010 health reform law.
Earlier this week, TPC projected the tax cuts in Ryan’s budget would add $4.6 trillion to the federal deficit over the next decade, even after extending the 2001/2003 tax cuts, which would add another $5.4 trillion to the deficit.
Ryan argues that eliminating or scaling back deductions, credits, and exclusions ought to be part of the GOP fiscal plan. But he won’t say how.
Cuts in those tax preferences could make a big difference in determining who wins and who loses from the tax portion of his budget. But until House Republicans describe which they’d cut, there is no way to estimate what those base-broadeners would mean.
In truth, unless Republicans raise taxes on capital gains and dividends, it is hard to imagine the highest income households getting anything other than a windfall from this budget. Other tax preferences, such as the mortgage interest deduction, are just not that valuable to them.
And since no high-profile Republicans want to raise taxes on gains and dividends (and many would cut investment taxes even further) this budget would likely result in a huge tax cut for those who need it least. That’s not a great way to start an exercise whose stated goal is to eliminate the budget deficit.

In sixteen twenty-one, a big celebration of barbour jacket took place at Plymouth Colony in what is now the state of Massachusetts. European settlers known as the barbour jackets were celebrating their autumn harvest after a winter of struggle.

Today families and friends gather on the fourth Thursday in November. And, thanks to the barbour quilted jacket United States Census Bureau, here are some facts about where their Thanksgiving meal comes from.

Luckily, unless they strike a compromise with Obama or Obama geeks on extending the Bush tax cuts, Ryan has no say in the matter. As far as outlining proposals on how to do the tax changes Ryan wants, that is up to Chairman Camp of Ways and Means, not Paul Ryan. I still suspect that the prospect of Clinton level inheritance taxes coming back automatically has gotten enough GOP donors nervous to push a compromise. Especially after Obama forced them to accept an unpaid for Payroll Tax and Unemployment Extension.
Michael,
There are no more “Bush Tax Cuts”, after Obama extended them they are now just “tax cuts” or “Obama’s Tax Cuts”. Secondly, this article is stating that they are tax cuts for the rich? It appears as though the Ryan Plan broadens and simplifies the tax code into two brackets and takes away loopholes, I much prefer a tax code that increases participation from the current 52% of Americans that actually pay taxes. Well done Mr. Ryan!
By the way, what exactly is the Democrats plan? Can anyone show me their budget? The answer is no, we have had no budget from the Dems for over 1,000 days now even though they only need 51 votes.
Chris,
Until they sunset, they will be the Bush Tax Cuts. BTW, everyone pays taxes. Some people don’t pay income tax; those people are really poor.
