I think ya need to look closer as to who and why before supporting cuts. You have been very hard hit out there and remember hungry people traditionally turn to crime.

The Republicans will tell you that they are courageous for standing up to the Dems, and preventing them from pandering to the masses with another extension of unemployment payments. After all, if the great unwashed continued to receive benefits, they would just go out and breed and come back for more.

' The Economy Is Headed In The Right Direction' - Quote from Barrack Obama's speech in Racine, WI. today.
Another great one: ‘The stimulus worked. You just don’t know it'.
I feel so much better now....LOL.

why cut at all? why not simply do away with tax exemptions or enact a tax on investment income?

I know you are different but I'd rather give money to people who can't get a job than to folks who make money without working.
