The Dems could give a rat's ass about income equality. What they have done is put blacks into a position of dependency on gov't support by increasing payments to the poor in general. Since 2008, transfer payment (e.g., welfare, rent subsidies, food stamps, etc.) increased over 31% while payments to the "working poor", like Social Security, increase by less than 2%. With programs like free cell phones, tell me politicians aren't buying votes with our tax dollars.
Also, will someone please tell me why income equality is so damn important to libs? If they get their wish and income is perfectly distributed, tell me what you call that kind of economic system. Would it be Pure Communism, which has never existed anywhere? It's never worked and history is strewn with the wreckage of those who tried, yet the Leftists want it for the US. Stupid...
Shumer, et al, complain that the recent tax package it dooming our children to a future of pain to pay off the debt. Really? Instead of you asshats in DC just looking at the revenue side of the debt, how about cutting all your stupid "re-election spending" and concentrate on what's best for us...not you? You all need to be tossed out of office.
“Shumer, et al, complain that the recent tax package it dooming our children to a future of pain to pay off the debt.”
It may be that this only changes when the elites realize there are far too few “Americans” left to pay off anything. How many Americans even have children anymore, where this would be a concern? While it was a news story a few weeks back how many of Europe’s leaders were childless (and therefore indifferent to the Muslimization of Europe), the simple truth is that many Americans now take the same position.
