There's just no denying that there's a class war happening in America. On one side, you have the Koch brothers and all the scumbags who work for them. On the other side, you have about 98% of Americans.
So whose side is Congress -- you know, the public servants who derive their power from the consent of the governed -- on?
The answer is quite clearly illustrated in one simple graphic, on the other side of the jump:
Just look at the last item, there:
* Total cost of all the cuts to safety net programs that millions of Americans rely upon: $44 Billion
* Total cost of the tax cuts for the wealthy, who apparently don't need to make any sacrifices, ever: $42 Billion.
This is disgusting. I think we should all print out this image and mail it to our senators, representatives, and President Obama with a simple question attached: Whose side are you on?
