Yeah, they were lying bigtime, blaming Bush’s “tax cut for the rich” for the state of Social Security,
when the revenues increased, and the rich actually paid a BIGGER PERCENTAGE of the tax burden due to the decreased rates.
This is the line I use against libs on this topic -
Since revenues have been shown, every time, to increase whenever the rates are reduced, your argument for higher taxes must not be about revenue. It must be about your need for control, or some sort of childish jealous vindictiveness that you’ve been brainwashed into by the democrats.
Got another explanation? errr stammer uh...
Or like my sis, the social worker, would say -- when confronted with the facts you mention -- "I don't believe those numbers. They're not true."
So, does she have some numbers of her own? Nope. But she just knows mine are wrong.
Liberalism is a religion...and I have attacked an article of her faith.
