ParticipantThe cries of class warfare are absurd. The way that Republicans are opposed to closing offshore loopholes for large corporations and fairer taxation at the high end is simply absurd.
Those fortunate enough to be in the highest tax bracket will not notice much of a change – a few points here or there is no big deal (really, it’s not warfare).
I resented Sen. Gregg’s comments along the lines of, “If you raise taxes on the entrepreneurs, they’ll have no reason to work anymore.”
Excuse me?! Raising my taxes a few % in a time of national crisis means I’ll chuck everything? How cynical and just plain wrong.
The conservative pundit David Brooks had it right, analyzing Gov. Jindal’s response to Obama’s speech:
“But to come up at this moment in history with a stale “government is the problem,” “we can’t trust the federal government” — it’s just a disaster for the Republican Party. The country is in a panic right now. They may not like the way the Democrats have passed the stimulus bill, but that idea … that government is going to have no role, the federal government has no role in this … it’s just a form of nihilism.”
Hopefully we are hearing the last squeal of these guys, before we get some level-headed people representing the Republican party again.
