It was a tax cut for the wealthy......
if by “wealthy” you mean “anybody with a job who is not on every type of public assistance known to man.”
The Elderly are expecting poorer treatment under Obamacare. Thus I predict a Historic Backlash sweeping many Democrats out in November. Their Traditional Constituencies, The Elderly and the Young being upset and the vast majority of Independents and common Americans will abandon them and fund their opponents in droves.
We don’t tax wealth in this country.
We tax income. Income is a measure of how hard you work, how much you produce that society/economy needs, and how good you are at investing in things that the economy needs. Taxing income simply keeps more people out of the “wealthy” club.
There is no sweat on a wealthy liberal’s money.
I drive past a “Section 8” publicly subsidized apartment complex everyday. It is a mile from my house. Today, there was a guy standing on his balcony in this complex, talking on a cell phone. What struck me was that he did not have one, but TWO small, modern TV satellite dishes mounted to the rail of his balcony. Two satellite dishes and a cell phone. This is the “poor” in America??????
Yet another scam by the limousine liberals. “We got ours, now we will kick away the ladder so you working commoners can’t get near us” or as Ann Coulter would say “Beat you over the head with polo mallets to make you go down the ladder”.
But wait a sec, you think our Dear Leader will stop there? Why, Dear Leader will need even more funds for his largesse! So the limousine liberals will gladly fork over part of their accumulated wealth and trust funds. So, Biff and Muffy, how did that negotiating with the crocodile to get eaten last work out for you?
