The Dems in the House this past week voted to let the Bush tax cuts expire. Seems their idea of raising taxes on the wealthy is to raise taxes on individuals with incomes in excess of $30,000 and couples with incomes in excess of $63,000. It’s not about raising taxes on the rich or making the tax code more fair, it’s about raising taxes on virtually everyone so that the Dems can raise spending and make everyone more dependent on government. This is SOCIALISM.
And with the economy in a recession, raising taxers will only make things worse, doing far more harm to the middle class.
As for international trade, the Dems are in the pockets of labor unions (and trial lawyers). Their idea of ‘fair’ trade is to raise prices for american consumers. That will be good for low/middle income workers–yes sir, let’s shut down Wal Mart and make the low/middle class shop at Macey’s!
The mantra of most who vote DEm, thanx to the class warfare of the DEms: “I want this and want that, but most of all I want someone else to pay for it.”
Sadly, many a well trained economists buy into this drivel.
