Role Reversals

[kentuck]

12. I appreciate your comments..

... but we have to look at the results. Yes, some of our politicians talk a good game but somehow the wealthy always get their taxcuts and we, the people, end up holding the bag.

I don't agree that Democrats have "always advocated" for tax relief for working Americans. I'm trying to think of examples, other than this FICA tax cut?

Yes, "the Democrats proposed a "millionaire tax" to pay for this which the Republicans rejected" but how hard did they fight for it, really?

Everybody likes tax cuts. They are like Santa Claus and apple pie. But taxcuts do not pay for themselves. You must sacrifice something when you get your tax cut. What are you willing to give up? Obviously, we cannot run deficits higher and higher and not expect some sort of consequence.

Do you want programs to help people or do you want tax cuts.? You can't have both.
