This has to be on of the oldest, most tired out sayings I have heard uttered from anybody's lips: "tax cuts for the rich"
The mere mention of the phrase "tax cut" causes most liberals to immediately spew this remark with absolutely no factual basis.
Rodney - back it up, show me the proof how this tax cut "primarily" helped the rich. I am not rich and it helped me, significantly. I know several people that are classified as "rich" and they still pay more in taxes then I bring home in my paychecks. I know a guy who constantly has to pay late fees on his tax payments because he sometimes doesn't bring in enough to pay the tax bill.
It is utter nonsense.
Proportionately, the "rich" get a bigger cut, but they are already paying several times more in taxes then we do. Our percentage of the cut is bigger then theirs. Look at the facts on the latest rounds of tax cuts before posting such dribble.
god, this phrase is overused, tired out and old.
Do you want to know who benefited "primarily" from this last cut? Parents, pure and simple. You want to bitch, bitch about that.
