so 15% on dividends is not low enough- he wants zero. He wants zero tax on capital gains. Who has dividends and capital gains? Not me- not you.

If you a 401K or any money invested..... even an investment property....the profit on the sale of the asset is generaly subject to capital gains tax.
Romney said he would drop the rate to zero for people making less than 200k. But the wealthy would still pay.

only for people making less than 200K

This will encourage middle class people to SAVE for retirement, education, etc.
and yes, I do have dividends and capital gains. Anyone with $50 and can buy a mutual fund does
