A trillion here or there to bail out too big to fail banks... multiple off budget wars...60 billion a year for a redundant Dept. of Homeland Security...A tax rate of 15% for millionaires whose stated income comes strictly from capital gains(interest on investment)...corporations off shoring profits to eliminate paying any taxes at home at all(GE and dozens of other corps.
And Social Security which provides a minimal income to 50 million elderly poor seniors who payed a lifetime of payments into it, and WIC which provides nourishment for new born infants in poverty is on the chopping block, and at at the top of our agenda?
If big banks are “too big to fail” then so is social security.
Want to guess how those 50 million seniors will vote next year.
50 million people living off the taxes of 131 million workers. Wow.
