I was driving home from a very late work day and I caught about 5 minutes of Mark Levin on the raidio.
Finally, a major Conservative media figure that let's me know I am not crazy. Levin lambasted the Republican for this garbage tax bill. He stated that the last minute scramble tonight in the Senate for more taxes is evidence this thing is an ill conceived beast not worthy of becoming law.
Levin stated that this bill is NOT even close to the philosophy of the 1986 Reagan Tax cut.
Further, Levin basically said it is immoral what the Republicans are trying to do to hard working middle class familes. He stated that people are laboring at their jobs, trying to save for retirement, trying to pay their bills, trying to put kids through college. People bought homes under the assumption that deductions that have been in the US Tax Code since 1913 (like state, local, and property taxes) and the mortgage deductions that they count on to survive are suddenly being ripped out from under them by Republicans who did not run on doing what they are trying to do to people.
This bill will hurt so many people: those who deduct medical expenses and who are trying to care for sick parents, those with large families, and on and on.
Shame on these Republicans.
Oh, they will be back tomorrow in the Senate, with another gimmick that is being dreamed up as I type this.
What a crock!
