food for thought

first happy thanksgiving to all and may god bless your table,your home and family!

who knows who "Grover Norguist is" and who he lobby's for? He is considered one of the most powerful men in washington and the one who made the republicans sign a no tax increase of any kind! (what happens if they do vote to increase the taxes on the wealthy-the makes sure the wealthy gives them no campaign money) he is also tied up with the koch brothers (who made their money from dad's oil business-check out where good old dad made his money-russia)
He is one of those people that have pulled the string of these puppet congressman to shift the tax burden from the top to the middle class. remember the top 5% earn 90% of the money in this country yet they pay only 70% of the taxes-thats as 20% tax shift to the middle class no matter how you spin it!
around the time that the supercommittee was impaneled. The findings regarding major cuts in domestic spending are consistent with polling data from late summer.

Overall, two-thirds support increasing taxes on wealthy Americans, while 32 percent oppose it. Americans overwhelmingly oppose any plan that would include a tax increase on the middle class.

“Nearly 7 in 10 independent voters don’t have a problem with raising taxes on the wealthy and corporations,” says Keating Holland, CNN
as you see 2/3 of this country is being over ruled by 1/3 who are influenced by lobbyist working for the ultra rich! that's class warfare no matter how you slice it!
