3. Tax Cuts that prop up a corrupt economy that enables un-reformed Wall Street gambling with other tax
Edited on Mon Dec-06-10 03:30 PM by patrice
cuts and SUBSIDIES of all types to the moneyed-class, will do little but TEMPORARY "good" - ON PLUTOCRATIC TERMS - for the Un-Employed.

The first step we can take toward power that could at least reduce the kind of dynamic that resulted in the black hole of Bush's Crash, which some are proposing that we pump more money into now, the first step we can take toward at least slowing all of that down and starting to build a base politically capable of acting TOGETHER even more in the future against the plutocracy, is to end ALL of Bush's Tax Cuts now.

7. Awesome! That's exactly what this bill should be called:
The Tax Cuts that prop up a corrupt economy that enables un-reformed Wall Street gambling with other tax cuts and SUBSIDIES of all types to the moneyed-class bill

8. That's why I am with Senator Harkin on this. & It IS probably going to cost me at least Un-Employmen

t benefits, if not some more taxes, if I don't keep myself poor next year.

I want us to invest in us, not in the plutocracy, which, without REAL banking and Wall Street reform, that's what we are going to be doing by putting Bush's Tax cuts back into this CORRUPT economy.

4. It easy for the GOP to be that way
Edited on Mon Dec-06-10 03:33 PM by formercia
They know where their paycheck is coming from for at least the next 2 years and most are well off, if not wealthy.

They can be total assholes and impose collective punishment on millions of innocent people whose only crime is they are poor.

This is a perfect example of Class Warfare.
