As Usual

The Republicans unveiled their tax plan today, emphasizing the money savings to be made by the average, middle class individual, who will get to keep thousands of dollars. Of course, Dumocrats emphasized the fact that "the rich" will get MILLIONS of dollars back. That sounds unfair, and Dumocrats told us YESTERDAY, before the plan even came out, and before they had any idea what was in it, that it was a "tax break for the rich." And it is. But it's also a tax break for EVERYBODY. And the rich, who put the most INTO the economy with their investments in jobs and commerce promoting projects tend to get more DOLLARS because they put more dollars INTO the economy in the very act of trying to EARN more money. They talk about tax cuts adding to the national debt, but experience makes liars out of them. The last big tax cut, made by the Reagan administration, caused the "tax take" to almost DOUBLE. That's because it stimulated economic activity and job creation. That's a number they can't deny, so they just IGNORE it. (CBS Miami)
