But yes, they despise the idea of their extra 3% going to people who need it but are all for it going to people who already have billions.

The funny thing about this is, who cares how much you're taxed if you end up making more than you were making before because the economy grows. My point is, isn't it better to be making 2 grand a week with them taking 500 from your check then making 100 dollars a week and they only take 5 bucks.
I remember during the Clinton administration there were more jobs than there were people to fill the positions and personal wealth was growing (which I'm sure both things pissed off the big companies) even if we were spending like fools.
Suddenly the surplus is used to finance a war that makes oil, the prime product we invade for, more expensive. Only a republican administration could pull that off and then convince trailer trash republican voters who are surviving on "mayonaise-filled wish-meat sandwhiches" that there is anything left that could possibly be taken from them that they should vote republican to protect.
