The current debt talk is just a way for the super wealthy to keep their tax cuts when it's so obvious they need to start paying their fare share.
That's why they created the phony Tea Party, so they can pretend that they have a constituency to answer to that "demands" debt reduction. The only thing is, the constituency doesn't even exist. They just invented a phony voter base to answer to. Pretty ingenious actually and if you don't think this is how the world really works, then you're naive.
When huge corporations are paying ZERO in taxes and people say we have a spending problem, it's just so ridiculous.
But wait, if we raise taxes, the big companies will stop hiring people, right? That's like the abusive husband that tells his wife, "don't make me hit you", then when he hits her anyway he says, "see what you made me do".
Do you really think if we lower taxes that Nike will ever start making shoes here? Will Apple ever make iPhones here? Big companies are never going to build factories here and start hiring people, so we might as well get some of that money they've made by building factories all over the world and exploiting slave labor.
The American voters are in an abusive relationship with the super rich.
