Marco Rubio calls Romney out on his tax paln. Rubio Casts Doubt On Romney Tax Plan Math One of Mitt Romney’s top surrogates acknowledged Tuesday that the GOP candidate’s tax plan will only be revenue neutral if it sparks a degree of economic growth most economists regard as wildly implausible. At the same time he warned Romney against targeting popular tax benefits as sources of new revenue to help pay for his plan to cut taxes by $5 trillion. [Reducing the mortgage interest deduction] is troubling, because it really helps the middle class,” he said. “Do you really want to hurt charitable giving in a country when you are saying that you want to rely less on government and more on private institutions to deal with these issues? And how are you going to raise taxes on people on their health care premiums when you are saying you want there to be a system in place where folks can have more control over their own money?” Rubio’s remarks that he’d want Romney to tread lightly around big, popular deductions suggest that Romney’s across the board 20 percent tax rate cuts could simply end up starving the federal government of revenue.
