In effect, a large part of our political class is showing its
priorities: given the choice between asking the richest 2 percent or so
of Americans to go back to paying the tax rates they paid during the
Clinton-era boom, or allowing the nation's foundations to crumble -
literally in the case of roads, figuratively in the case of education -
they're choosing the latter.

not only that, but we're borrowing to finance the gifts for the rich

Once again, 49% federal tax rates for all income over $250,000, and
*every* dollar coming in in any way, except for long-term capital gains
on investments made in the United States, should be considered income.

another article the other day pointed out that the richest 1% have
seen their effective tax rates drop by 50% in the last 10 years.

this country is getting more like mexico every day

Hey pubhic, you think none of those rich are Dems? What a f'ing joke
you are. If the liberals had their way, we'd have a government just
like Mexico's, with those in power having all the wealth. When will
you liberals wake up?
