Dwarfing Bush’s Tax Cuts

Chuck Marr graphed Pawlenty's tax cuts by income:

[I]n 2013 the Pawlenty plan would give people in the top one-tenth of 1 percent on the income scale (i.e., people with incomes above $2.7 million) an average annual tax cut of $1.8 million — which is more than four times what they got last year from the Bush tax cuts.

Jonathan Bernstein sighs:

Kevin Drum, of course, is correct that in the context of the Republican nomination process these are exactly what people want. I expect Mitt Romney to match Pawlenty, in both size and skew of tax cut proposals.
