Typical Liberal Stupidity

A liberal blog still makes the mistake of believing tax cuts come out of the government's pocket, and that the money that goes back to the non-rich doesn't matter. They say, " Remember, . . . with record deficits and all the bills from Iraq and the Katrina rebuilding piling up, the Bush administration's tax cuts would give $336 billion to the wealthiest 1 percent of Americans over the next 5 years. That's money we are literally going to give away [Give away? Who owns it in the first place? -RT] to those handful [handful? -RT] of Americans who make an average of $1 million a year or more [Who pays the most taxes? -RT]. We can't afford it -- and it's time for the Democratic Party as a whole make that truth part of its core message moving forward." I ask them: "You think they aren't? That's been their main phony message for years. So long, in fact, that we're getting tired of it. They just refuse to understand that letting investors keep more of their money sparks investment in the kind of projects that create jobs and more tax liability for them, thus bringing in more money to the government. They think if the money doesn't come in directly to the government, there's something wrong. Sheesh! (Sirotablog,9/16/05)
