Give A Man A Fish And He Will Eat For A Day
Give a billionaire a tax cut and he will hold his breath until you extend it for another two years.

4. Can I vote that we let him hold his breath?
I mean, as a 'conservative', that's in line with the philosophy.

8. Teach a man to fish
And he'll sit in a boat drinking beer all weekend. ( I know, old joke)

At least he used to, when the common man could afford a little boat and maybe a little cabin at the lake. It's a damn shame the damn billionaires are so greedy and hateful that they look upon any simple little "luxury" that the working class used to have with derision because it interferes with their insatiable wealth addiction. It's a damn disgrace....disgusting :grr:
