Tax Reax

NPR asked reporters in Dallas, Chicago and Boston talk to voters about what they think of the tax cut plan that President Bush sent to Congress today. Wade Goodwyn found a lot of support for the plan at the upscale North Park Mall in Dallas. NPR's Mary Ann Akers found mixed reviews of the tax plan at a state office building in Chicago. NPR's' Anthony Brooks visited Boston's financial district. He found support for the tax cut among people in the financial services business. But more average voters wondered whether the money would be better spent on such programs as Social Security and Medicare.
