GOP Senators Reject Tax Cuts for Middle Class - CBS News

If republicans gave aid to the poor, gave workers higher wages, and gave the middle class tax cuts, then there would be less poverty.

But republicans won't do things to eliminate poverty, they only do this.

Rand Paul's fix for Detroit: lower taxes for the rich, more pollution & lower wages for the poor

Bush Tax Cuts After 2002: June 2002 CTJ Analysis
The consumer determines wages, not the government.

Bush's tax cuts (for the 1%) were rescinded a few years ago, yet the debt clock continues to climb and the economy still sucks.

You think that will ever change ?

The poor get's subsidized housing, health care, food, child care, pre schooling, cell phones, utilities.

Our poor here in the US do pretty darn well compared to most countries.
Would you rather be poor in the US or Columbia ?

The poor are not interested in you.....when is the last time a recipient class member walked up to you as you were leaving work and said "Thank you for supporting me and my family."? It's more likely that they say "F**k you@! You're not giving me enough!".

If you don't have the tools necessary to start a business, then it's really not a business. It's just a pipe dream. Real businesses have a plan and an execution. If the plan can't be executed for any reason, then it's really not a business plan.
