Here we go again, the Teapublicans pulled another trick on the USA by not passing The Tax cut Bill in the Congress! They added a whole bunch of junk amendments on the original bill which would have lasted a year. The Democrats didn't accept that with the bad amendments so they tricked the Democrats with a "compromise" bill authored by Harry Reid and Mitch McConnel. This would lower taxes for two months and continue unemployment benefits too. The Senate passed it but the Teapublican controlled Congress defeated it. This is business as usual for the Teapublicans who have played dastardly games on us since the Nixon Presidency.
I hope this country wises up and makes sure that they can't do this to us any more! We must make sure we vote Democratic in the next election and retain Barack Obama as our president! We have to tell our fiends and family to vote Democratic too.
Our economy is already on life support and with the loss of unemployment benefits and less take home pay for the employed, our economy will further go down the tubes! Face it, the middle class and the poor are the ones that keep this economy going! The super wealthy don't spend money in regular stores. They only patronize a few high end businesses to buy their Rolls Royce cars or yachts.
The Wealthy will pay for this with less business at their stores and services though so their Teapublican darlings blew it for them too!
