(Ed. John has had more than enough with this one...)
The Bush tax cut for the super-rich was pandering to his power base. And look at what Bush-Reagan did to our Economy.
By rolling them back, we can return to a strong, vibrant economy and come close to balancing the national government budget. Instead, Obama took so many Wall Street donations he is afraid to roll back Tax Cuts to the Rich. They are a very powerful lobby.
Instead, Tea Party freaks - who have no understanding of economics or the corner-stones if "America", pander to the rich who are manipulating them - against their own self-interests.
I just had a Hedge Fund broker on my trip who said he CEO makes $500 MILLION/year. I suggested that making this kind of money without paying his fair share of taxes is TREASON.
These corporate whores prefer to maintain their tax cuts and cut government services that turn America into a two class society - rich and poor, with no Middle Class - the backbone of American Society.
I propose we start telling it like it is, and start labeling the Super Rich and the politicians who oppose rolling back the Bush Tax cut as "ECONOMIC TRAITORS". Their greed is killing America more than any spy could ever do; it is an ACT OF TREASON.
Let's start telling it like it is - The TRAITORS AND TREASON
movement is killing our country.
Republicans (and Democrats who vote to support the Super-Rich) are committing TREASON more damaging than any Spy. The short-sighted, greedy Super Rich who refuse to count their blessings and pay their fair share of taxes are TRAITORS – more harmful than spies in wartime.
Let's start telling it like it is!
