Economy is imploding - Republicans propose a tax cut.
Seriously. This is the "alternate" proposal being put forth by House Republicans.

Is there any event that doesn't call for a tax cut?

6. It's a capital gains tax cut.
Which means the superwealthy whose income is solely from investments will be paying, what, 10% instead of the current 15%? Meanwhile the rest of us pay 25%? Yeah, that's fair. :eyes:

4. Yep. Ideology before sanity.
The bad thing is people here don't seemed too worried.

And you guys laughed at Palin's crazy anti-witchcraft pastor.
