Default Re: OT: Rating the President

O.K. Let's say the millionaires deserve a tax cut because they have been taken advantage of by the system.

W is claiming that EVERYONE is getting a tax cut. What he is doing, however, is giving the top 5% a tax cut and financing it with the money collected through the social security tax which is meant to be used for social security.

If your in the top 5% make over 128k I suppose you'd want this, but if your not then your being duped into thinking that your getting a tax cut and the money your putting into social security and supposed to get back is being spent.

As I mentioned Social Security amounts to 44% of revenue which people forget and it is NOT being put away for social security.

EDIT: If you don't care about Social Security fine just tell people that the money they're paying for Social Security isn't for Social Security and call it what it is: Income Tax.
