Reply #13: Middle Class Tax Breaks are GOOD, but

[bvar22]

.... not the best stimulus.
Most of the people who really NEED the Money, and who will spend it immediately pay very little or no income taxes (and rightly so).
Put the money directly in THEIR hands, and you will see "stimulus."

The other problem is Structual.
Money spent at WalMart or any other Big Box does NOT circulate in the local economy providing the Stimulus Effect.
It is sent straight back to Corporate HQ (or out of the country), and into the pockets of the Ownership Class in one quick step.
FDR didn't have THAT problem to deal with.

Before this country can get back to a REAL Middle Class and Local Economies, the Big Boxes MUST be broken up.

Teddy Roosevelt, your hungry nation calls out for you!
