Is Paul Ryan’s Budget ‘Un-Christian’? TIME MAGAZINE (August 14, 2012) http://ideas.time.com/2012/08/14/why-paul-ryans-budget-unchristian/ Americans often tell pollsters they yearn for a return to the Christian principles on which the U.S. was founded. If so, they should take a closer look at the Romney-Ryan ticket. Jesus’s teachings regarding wealth are nowhere to be found in Paul Ryan’s budget proposals. As near as we can tell, Jesus would advocate a tax rate somewhere between 50% (in the vein of “if you have two coats, give one to the man who has none”) and 100% (if you want to get into heaven, be poor). Mostly, he suggested giving all your money up for the benefit of others. And Jesus made no distinction between the deserving and undeserving poor; his love and generosity applied to all. What about Paul Ryan? Ryan hasn’t released his tax returns yet, so we don’t know what rate he pays. But under his budget plan, according to a recent analysis in the Atlantic, Mitt Romney would pay only 0.8% of his income in federal taxes. That’s right: in Ryan’s budget scenario, one of our wealthiest citizens would pay less than one percent of his income in taxes, or less than $200,000 from a taxable income of almost $22 million.When it comes to paying taxes, Paul Ryan is Mitt’s wing man. …… Note：it is so weird to see this article. Anyway I don’t know whether it is right or not, we should check it! it is from the time magazine.
