The Republicans support a ten year182-billion dollar plan
that cuts taxes about a thousand dollars for the average couple filing
jointly. But it only benefits couples making at least 70-thousand dollars a year.
Democrats argue couples that use the alternative minimum tax would be
left out and the GOP plan simply costs too much.
