I have yet to see tax credits, rebates, abatements change what comes out of my pocket.
Mayor Bloomburg recently gave us NYC property owners $400 credits for property taxes. Whoopdefuckingdoo. After he raised property taxes he gives some of it back after a year of holding it?
When I lived in California the voters voted for better auto insurance. I believe all that media, I was going to get money back for all the insurance redlining and disproportionate charging of rates. I didn't even get a nickel back. I moved out of the state and as far as I know all my friends and family that live in CA still haven't seen dime one from that voter mandate. It was a bunch of hogwash and I'm not buying it again.
People are wronged let's make some sort of class action suit, let's get the company to pay. Yeah I have coupons from Microsoft for $150 so that I can buy another Microsoft product. I have $20 coupons from AT&T so that I can feel better that they fucked me out of monies but in order to get my "$20" I have to spend more money with them.
Maybe you don't feel fucked by Steve Jobs because he charged $599 to the first iphone people and then when the new ones come out at $399 everyone cries found and he "gives" back $100 to be used in Apple stores. He's still got your $200 dollars.
No, it's just as much how I see the government working just not as efficiently.
