This is a table that the Senate GOP didn't want you to see. They were sitting on it for 2 days. It shows that over 80% (yup, 4 out of 5) of ALL households end up with a tax increase or get basically nothing from their so-called "middle class tax cut."

1. Thanks, kpete. I'm going to send it to all my email contacts

and urge them to do the same. Maybe it will open a few eyes.

those who make between 500,00 and 100 billion dollars a year?

3. I'm cross posting this so you can take some action

The tax overhaul before the senate is a Christmas tree with every shiny right wing bauble hanging on its twisted branches. Everything in modern American life is under assault in this package: From Social Security to child healthcare; from small business to drilling in the Arctic Refuge; from cutting taxes for the richest Americans and imposing taxes on the rest of us. This list goes on for more than 500 pages of backroom non-bipartisan sausage making. In this case, the sausage is you and your hard earned dollars.

Nine senators have expressed reservations about this mess. Let’s let them know they are right to have those reservations. You know the Koch boys and their fellow vulturess are working them over.

Congress is under enormous pressure to “get something done.” Wealthy donors have told them the piggy banks are closed until they make these bills law. Let’s add to the pressure. We are many, they are few. Let them know what you will lose.

7. So this is how these monsters will offset the Earned Income Tax Credit

for the poor.
Which is a huge economic stimulus---but the lower middle class hates it because they hate that "those poor people are taking MY money"....
