Representation without taxation |
|
Bush and his buddies and their "tax reform" will give the wealthiest people in the country the opposite of what the Bostonians fought back in 1776. They will get their representation, plenty, but with no or minimal taxation.

Oh, this is what the Bostonians fought against. This was the rule of the day, giving nearly all wealth to the top 1-3% of the population while allowing the rest to have just enough to scrape by. And this election is almost a remake of the battle. Think about it: John Kerry, a man from Massachusetts, battle King George II from Texas. This is beyond irony, its the sequel.

2. Wish we used this as a slogan. |

Sigh. The good ol' 20/20 hindsight
I came with this while debating a RW who consider himself and Bush "moderates." What a joke. And the talk about only the rich benefiting as "fear mongering." I wish that we used the numbers of how many pay more in SS taxes than in income one. I know that the numbers are available
