JackY Posted January 8, 2004 Share Posted January 8, 2004 ..the following were true? "I was especially surprised to find that some of the biggest tax breaks for the rich are not even in the tax code, and that the IRS was completely unaware of many widely used tax fraud schemes. But what surprised me more than anything was the realization that our tax system now levies the poor, the middle class and even the upper middle class to subsidize the rich." -David Cay Johnston Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mtguide Posted January 8, 2004 Share Posted January 8, 2004 (edited) Well,I see someone else has figured it out,too.... (pssst; it's been going on since Reagan's tax "reform" of 1986,the most massive transfer ever(until the Bush tax cuts)of wealth from the lower,middle and upper middle classes to the top 1%.)

ChickenShiite911 Posted January 8, 2004 Share Posted January 8, 2004 Sorry kiddo, but I believe that he's gonna be re-elected because he's done got us in to another "hearts and minds" guerrilla war, and there was a whole generation of perfectly trained American killer youth, (kill some commies for Christ and country) who were raised in the 'Rambo/SWAT' era who were just waiting to loose their skills in a fury of death. That aside, Americans hate to lose a good war, or any war, for that matter. So we'll rally behind this president and the good 'ol US of A. We'll not stop to consider that there might actually have been something to learn from past conflicts. This president will be re-elected by a landslide, because to vote otherwise would somehow imply that you are un-American. Sadly, that's the way it'll play out.

tshimko Posted January 8, 2004 Share Posted January 8, 2004 Although I'd never vote for him, I also am certain he will get re-elected . Excellent article in the PI that explains why: The S factor explains Bush's popularity Neal Starkman, guest columnist: Millions of words have been written as to the motivations of voters. Particularly in close elections, as in the 2000 presidential contest, pundits and laypeople alike have speculated on why people voted for whom. The exit poll has been a major tool in this speculation. * Read the full article at: http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/opinion/155107_firstperson05.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
