Why, tax breaks of course! I assume you own a home. There's no telling how many thousands of dollars that I and the rest of my taxpayer friends have given you to live there. You never even invited us over for coffee! Sheesh!

The 2003 Bush tax cuts are annually $91,000 on average to those making more than $1 million dollars. the tax cut for those making less than $1 million, the average tax cut is $100 annually. My house was paid for prior to 2003. And those that make above $1 million get the same deductions for mortgages.
So what is your point again?
What do you think you give me in terms of thousands of dollars a year?
It's their old tired mantra - every Dem/Lib is on handouts - never mind that Libs are now the richest in the country, those poor ole Republican middle-class people, they've been taught that giving to the poor is bad, giving to the rich somehow benefits them more......it'll trickle down someday!
what was your tax bill last year?
I can tell you I didn't get a $91,000 tax break, how about you Apdst?
Yes, people evidently have been waiting on that trickle down for 30 years now, and this is as good as its ever gotten:

My company doesn't make a million a year, thanks to Obama, but I did get the same tax cut that every other corporation got.
.
Do you even know what trickle down economics is?
Those making over a million appreciate their annual $91,000 tax break you help provide them each year! And you do it so happily while your business gets worse and their profits go up. That is so selfless of you! You would at least think they would give you a gold star or something! :sun

even with the 91K "break", they still pay more taxes than you will ever dream of. what's your point?
Yes, I just posted an illustration of it above, it is the system that hasn't worked for the last thirty years, but some evidently are still waiting on their trickle.

So, are you actually trying to parrot the same dollar amount, in the hopes that people will believe that large corporations got $91,000 tax cut? Wait, tax cut, or tax break? There's a difference.
Care to tell us how much you paid in taxes?
The point is that since there was no funding source provided for the $91,000 on average in tax breaks we give each year to everyone that makes more than $1 million dollars, it is added to the debt which the middle class and our future offspring than become responsible to pay back

I do not discuss my personal finances online, if you wish to, go right ahead.
.Ok, well obviously that means you don't have the first ****ing clue what trickle down economics is.
Here goes: I'm in the turcking business. Before Obama cocked things up, I used to pay a man to bust my tires
Now, I do it myself and he doesn't get that money anymore. I used to take my trucks to a mechanic for everything. Now, I do alot of minor stuff myself and the guy I used to use doesn't get that money. He went out of business and had to go get a job with Peterbilt. Get the picture?
you really don't understand how taxes and tax breaks/cuts work, do you?
Yes, I do. If you cut revenues from one class and continue the same spending levels, you create debt which all classes must share in. That is one of the reasons our debt is so big and the middle class is failing.
Here then, let's cut some of your entitlements...it is after all the spending that is breaking us.
Can you handle a little less welfare?
bolded...there's your problem. stop the handouts
The problem is you cut revenues from the top income class while not providing a living wage for the bottom. Of course that is only going to increase the welfare roles. Sure, you can eliminate welfare and have a 50 million people out to cut your throat for a loaf of bread, that makes sense., or you can cut back a little on the tax breaks for the wealthy and help cut back on the National debt so that every one has less debt.
That isn't going to happen. Even the GOP when they were in charge did not eliminate the social safety nets. Why do you feel the Middle class should continue to subsidize tax breaks for everyone that makes over $1 million dollars.
How has that helped us since 2003?
