Conservative dichotomy regarding taxes
First, they scream for more and bigger tax cuts.

Then, when taxes are cut so deeply some of the people at the lower end of the spectrum no longer pay taxes, they scream about freeloading.

The question I always have is, "What exactly did you think was going to happen?"

1. it's not a dichotomy. it's all about scoring propaganda points, not logic.
they say whatever they need to to *win*.

2. Conservatives are kings of the double-bind.
The common thread to their logic is "I'm entitled and you're not"

3. The CONservative/RepubliCON f*ckers want to increase SALES TAX all the time
so that even the working poor have to pay them.
