  • set up shell companies in the Cayman Islands and Bermuda to avoid U.S. taxes.
  • calls Obama’s payroll tax cut that would save middle class/lower income families $1,500 a year “temporary little band aids.”
  • plan for a “middle class tax cut” would provide zero benefits to 73.9 percent of the middle class.
  • called for taxes on the poor, saying low-income Americans having no income tax liability is “a problem” that will “kill the country.”
