New way to counter the "I've never been hired by a poor person" [View All]

[zbdent]

You've heard the mantra. Bush's tax cuts help everybody because they give the money mostly to the top 1 percent. Top 1 percent (according to paper/theory) spend the money, creating jobs.

"I've never been hired by a poor person." - apparently never was a plumber who responded to a call to a working poor neighborhood.

The counter:

"Would you rather get $10 each from the 1 percent that benefitted from the tax cuts, or would you rather get fifty cents each from the other 99 percent?"
