totally agree with minncai. i can't understand why so many americans buy the
republican bullshit of spending cuts and no tax increase. on one hand,
history already showed spending cuts during an economic recession was a
recipe to the great depression. on the other hand, the tax increases
proposed by Obama totally makes sense: 1) no tax increases for the majority
of tax payers. so no hardship to the masses. 2) raising the tax brackets
only on the top 5% richest in the nation will encourage idle money to be
flowed into our economy, and the collected taxes can be used to fund
infrastructure, education and research. 3) closing corporate tax loopholes
for overseas profits will help bring corporate investments back to this
country.
what republicans are really trying to do is to make our economy worse, so
that Obama will not get re-elected. That motive - that total lack of concern
about the real suffering of people in this country - makes me angry and
sick!
