Dishonesty and the Bush tax plan
By: Hank Kalet
Sometimes I feel like I’m becoming repetitive, but with such dopey policy coming down the pike, I feel like I have no choice.
Take the tax bill that passed in the U.S. Senate today. As I’ve written before, several times, this is a bad tax bill that will drain the treasury without helping the economy. In fact, what we’re looking at here is a concerted effort to shift income into the pockets of people who already have plenty of it while creating an atmosphere in which there will be little cash available for social programs.
Matthew Rothschild, editor of The Progressive, offers a stinging analysis in his This Just In feature.
