J LHLS Issue 8!"] 11/10/2005 Entry: "Don't eat the rich, tax them" "'Last month, at the Democratic Leadership Council, Maya MacGuineas, who heads the bipartisan Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, proposed a "grand bargain" between the parties. Democrats would agree to cut entitlement programs, and Republicans would raise taxes.'" Christ in Birkenstocks. Go read the whole thing, you'll be glad you did. Well, we know who they're gonna try to raise taxes on (us wage slaves). Cut what entitlement programs? "Health services that could be cut to these children include coverage for eyeglasses, hearing aids, speech therapy, crutches and other treatments whose costs are prohibitive for many low-income working families." And that's just for starters. Your Congresspeople can be found here. Let them know how you feel about this and to fight it. Like you should have to tell them, but these are the times we live in, and it is time for the rich and the corporations to pay their fair share. Posted by Ginger Mayerson
