54. We all go, or nobody does
Edited on Fri Dec-10-10 01:29 PM by Hawkowl
What about the 99'ers? Eh? So fuck them? That's your attitude? Not to mention fucking over the entire economy so that a lot more WILL become unemployed as the rich get their welfare payments(borrowed from the Chinese) and send them off shore?

Not to mention undermining Social Security with a tax break on the low end, but no elimination of the income cap that could easily pay for the tax break. Obama's proposal further feeds into rightwing propaganda that SS is insolvent.

The DADT and Dream Act should not be wrapped up in tax breaks for the rich. Sorry Obama has done this one too many times--lying about his progressive intentions, then pulling out the rug at the last minute to side with the Rethuglicans. He did it with the Public Option and he is doing it now with Welfare for millionaires. Once he gets his Welfare program passed, he will drop the Dream Act and DADT like hot rocks--because, "whine, whimper" po lil Obama doesn't have the votes.

(And my taxes will go up if it doesn't pass. I'll pay between an extra $4,000 - $5,000)
