Tax cuts are for the....REPUBLICANS. It's not "the rich" but themselves that they are rooting for |

Edited on Wed Dec-01-10 04:47 PM by live love laugh
The discussion about tax cuts has been wrong.
These tax cuts are not for "the rich" so much as the tax cuts ARE for REPUBLICANS.
They are holding the country hostage until THEY receive a monetary benefit for themselves.
The Republicans are selfishly advocating tax cuts that will benefit nearly 100% of Republican lawmakers.
They are not worried about any "base" or any constituents. They are certainly not worried about people not making it through the holidays with food or shelter.
No, REPUBLICANS are worried that THEY will have LESS wealth as a result of paying taxes.

5. I think the Republican base doesn't care who gets them |
|
they just want to "win". People that vote Republican clearly have a disconnect in the fact legislation actually affects their lives. It's just not another game.

7. I think people don't care because they don't realize how self-serving this is |
|
That is why I pointed it out. I hope that more people point it out.

6. Another thing I've been saying |
|

13. I believe that the Republicans said NONE will pass ANY legislation UNLESS they get THEIR tax cuts. |
|
There are rich Democrats but they are not holding Congress hostage for tax cuts that benefit themselves.
