huh?! Wasn't the theme of this thread, "let's all be super precise in our language and make sure that we never ever say anything that isn't 100% technically true"???

I could of course be shooting off my mouth here. But I think not. In any case the statement "the tax cut's don't benefit the top 1%" seems to be blatantly false on its face. The top 1% got *something*.
Teal, No, I don't believe that is the theme of this thread, but I did mispeak. I left out the word "only". Rex's statement infered that the tax cut
only benefitted the top 1%. That wasn't his use of words exactly, but that seems to be his meaning from the contrast against a "payroll tax cut". I was disagring with the notion that it
only benefitted the top 1% of wage earners. This is patently false.
