Well…just go suited up to get on the bike and it started to rain again and it is nowhere near warm enough to get out in the rain, so I thought I’d come back here to do one of these while I wait for the weather to cooperate. Just read a short little article on Kos that is just another small bit of evidence that the tax cuts for the rich and corporations that the repubs passed, using investment and job growth as the reason for cutting taxes, is just the scam that those of us in the reality based world said it was. The Federal Reserve does a survey every quarter to judge the state of the economy, asking CEO’s to report if they are going to invest the tax cuts and/or crate more jobs….I think you can guess where this is going…almost 80% of those surveyed said that they have NO plans to increase investment or to hire anyone for both this year and next…let that sink in a minute…the entire reason that the repubs gave for screwing over most of the US and exploding the debt was to get the economy going and that they would create good jobs….but, I guess they didn’t check with anyone other than their masters when they did the tax cuts that ended up benefiting only their masters…with the rich getting over 90% of the cuts. But, don’t expect anything to change as long as the repubs are in charge…after all, they don’t believe in facts or empirical data…just their “gut” feelings….so, let’s get out and vote this fall…they need to go away soon….geez…
