The economy IS shrinking.
The government SAYS the money from the Obama TARP Takeover is coming back. I don't buy it for a SECOND!
SOCIALISM DOES NOT WORK! STOP THE STALINISM!

Let me first say that any site that presents "news" but does not allow comments from readers is beyond suspect nowadays.
As to this press release presented as an objective news report, notice the purposeful ambiguity of the reputed facts in an article decrying ambiguity. "A program...." starts one claim and yet somehow they don't find the time to expand the facts to include naming the program and it's magical tax break.

These, of course, are not tax breaks but giveaways that are shouldered by non-qualifying taxpayers.
This kind of shoddy, blatantly biased reporting in a day and age where the length of articles are essentially unlimited is quickly coming to an end. Lower denominator articles that create more questions than provide answers and clearly regurgitate basic bullet points of the left are becoming as obvious as the Naked Emperor. To a certain extent, reason will prevail.

Let’s talk ‘welfare reform’...Corporate welfare reform.

LOL! Your creative byline drew me in ;)
