It grinds my gears that in this country, the wealthy are being punished so much while the elderly and poor have it so great, living on easy street.
Yeah, my grandmother gets $1100 a month for social security and free medical care. She gets everything handed to her. greatest generation my arse.

Cut taxes on the rich and raise them for the poor, it's the American way and always has been.
Uh...no. We've had a progressive income tax structure for 70 years or so.

Isn't that what counter-proposals are for? Isn't that how this is supposed to work?
Or are we just now relegated to the status quo for the rest of eternity, while the smart and smug amongst us sit back and laugh at anyone proposing ANYTHING and say, "haha look at that, that has not chance."

Sure, but if you want to be serious, you don't present a budget plan that fosters (and, in fact enables) the "GOP hates the poor" argument. If anything, he should have proposed a 5% cut in military spending so he (and the GOP) could argue, "it's all on the table...everyone has "skin in the game"."

With this, I don't necessarily disagree.

It's a waste of time b/c it is not a balanced approach.
