I propose a new program: I'll admit it's wealth re-distribution.
I think we need to help out the job creators.
That's why I think anyone who is registered as a Republican, but not in the top 10% (wealthy wise), should have to pay for the tax cuts and debt associated with giving the rich tax cuts. I also propose a new form of wealthyfare: a tax levied, yet again, on the bottom 90% of the Republican party (wealth wise) which will go straight into the hands of the job creators.
That way, they can give money straight to the rich, and if they really believe in their orthodoxy, that means it should trickle down on them, right?
Right.
I have a counter proposal dummy. How about we tax welfare, section 8 hud, food stamps, medicaid, etc. It's income right? Why should these people get a free ride? While we are at it... how about eliminating the Earned Income Credit for people with a net tax of $0.00? Their tax is already zero so why should they get any money? You complain about tax breaks for the rich, well what kind of break are the people on the above programs getting? Betcha it is a lot more.
