Obama budget: Tax plans aim at rich
When it comes to taxes, President Obama's 2013 budget proposal released Monday includes a host of repeat performances.
In fact, many of the proposals he makes have appeared in every budget Obama has put out since taking office.
One addition this year: a so-called Buffett Rule to ensure that those making more than $1 million pay their "fair share," which President Obama has defined as paying at least 30% of their income in taxes.
But his budget proposal offers few new details about how the Buffett Rule would actually work, other than to say it would be "equitable, including not disadvantaging individuals who make large charitable contributions." The fiscal blueprint reiterates that the Buffett Rule is a guiding principle for overhauling the tax code.
Obama's tax recordObama includes other more concrete, oft-made proposals that would increase the tax bite on high-income households, while calling for expanding or making permanent other tax breaks for the middle class.
