Fool Me Once - Shame On You - Fool Me Twice - Shame On Me - How Many Times Are We Going To Fall.....

for the same crap the Repugs are pushing for tax reform. They might throw some crumbs out to the middle class - but we all know that this tax reform is targeting the rich and the corporations.

They say 'jobs, jobs, jobs' - but in reality - just because corporate taxes will be cut - doesn't mean the corps will hire more people or raise wages for current employees. We all know that this won't happen.

Yes - their tax plan is going to benefit the wealthy and the rest of us will be sold down the river. Any advantages that the Repugs say will be directed to the middle class - will only be in there to try and get the Dems to vote for their plan. They will use Dems not getting on board with their plan against them - by saying that it is the Dems that are obstructing and not wanting to give tax cuts to the middle class. And guess what - a lot of the American People will fall for that.

The Repugs will push for lower taxes. They increase the deficit immensely. And when the Dems get into the WH and back in power - the Dems will - as always - have to play clean-up. They will have to push for tax increases and the Repugs will use that against the Dems as well.

Sad isn't it?
