Since when is a tax cut for a lower paid person some kind of communist plot? As Rolex says most middle income families are three months away from homelessness if something happens to their jobs. These people are the bedrock of the community. They are the wealth producers who make the wealthy rich. Without them the rich wouldn't have a customer to sell to. The key to any economy is to have a strong and comfortable middle class with money to spend. That keeps the Paris Hilton's of this world in champagne and diamonds.
First you must realize that the Cons in here listened to OxyRush and his kind blathering on and on to much. The actually believe that being called a dem,liberal or lefty is a put down. They believe that dems,lefties, or liberals dont love this country, fight for this country, or work.
They also dont understand that taxes pay for the things that make the values of their homes increase.
And they dont understand the consequences of catering to the top 1% by giving them all the benifits even though they control the largest % of the $ and value in this country/world.
They actually think that corporations are what make this country great. Why else would they keep voting other cons into office who give corps incredible tax breaks and outright permission to rape the people and the workers?
Recently Swift company was raided for illegal workers. Since these workers were picked up and deported Swift has had to raise its pay scale for the USA citizens that will work thier to replace the illegals. The intent of the cons is to break the unions and create a large pool of poor workers so that corps dont have to pay decent wages. This isnt a secret.
