So, once again. Heres what you people who gave the senate and house to Republicans voted for back in November. This is your fault. When you look around in two years and wonder why the rich keep getting richer, and you keep getting poorer, dont look to Obama, the democrats, or anyone else. You did this by giving Republicans more power, all because they managed to scare you into thinking they were about something other than robbing you to give your money to their wealth friends. From the article: The centerpiece of the proposal, set to be unveiled Monday by Rep. Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.), is a “paycheck bonus credit” that would shave $2,000 a year off the tax bills of couples earning less than $200,000. Other provisions would nearly triple the tax credit for child care and reward people who save at least $500 a year. The windfall — about $1.2 trillion over a decade — would come directly from the pockets of Wall Street “high rollers” through a new fee on financial transactions, and from the top 1 percent of earners, who would lose billions of dollars in lucrative tax breaks. Boehner’s position that tax cuts add to the deficit apparently only applies to tax cuts for the middle class because it was only last month that Speaker Boehner supported a $440 billion tax cut for corporations. John Boehner is fond of referring to the House as the People’s House, but it clear that the people the Speaker is referring to arent working folks or middle class Americans. By the People’s House, Speaker Boehner means the Koch brothers, corporations, or other special interests. If Republicans were serious about governing, they would seize the opportunity to pass a middle-class tax cut that Democrats would support and the president would sign. Instead, Republicans are using their power in Congress to harm the middle class while claiming to be carrying out the will of the people. A middle-class tax cut would put money back into the pockets of those who need it most while providing a boost to the economy. Boehner’s rejection of the Democratic proposal is another reminder that the Republican Party doesnt care about ordinary hard working Americans. politicususa/2015/01/12/john-boehner-screws-american-people-blocking-2000-middle-class-tax-cut.html
