Subject: RE: BS: The Republicans (US)
Exactly, TIA...

If the tax cuts aren't helping small businesses, as the Repub claim, and they are contributing to the deficit then, duhhhh...

Plus we now understand the rich are so flush with money that they are just letting it sit??? GNP is dependent on money changing hands and if you take $1.8T and hide it under the matress then it isn't in circulation and therefore the GNP has to suffer... There are one shitlaod of people out there without jobs or grossly underemployed who would certainly allow them bucks to circulate... There are also alot of single women out there living in projects and Section 8 housing trying to take care of kids while working in minumum wage jobs... Heck, the minumum wage doesn't even get a family of four within shotting range of the bottom of the poverty line... Those mothers wold certainly help circulate them bucks... But, no... The $1.8T ain't gonna be used that way 'cause the rich thinks it's better to just let the pile of cash collect dust???

Tell me agin why we need to keep funneling cash to the rich???
