Guess whats next on the chopping block before tax cuts for the super-wealthy…
….this is going to be a long series, I would guess. Once you put yourself on an unsustainable path (and without new revenue, we’re on one), it’s just a matter of time until everything gets the ax. First up…those guys that fought in that war we cut taxes on the wealthy to pay for (and [...]
