I Just Don't Get These Democrats: Another $1.1 Trillion Pork Bill

The Democrats have been crying about extending tax cuts to everyone as adding debt, even though history has proven that reducing the tax burden on the wealthiest 2% increases revenue. It increased revenue when President Coolidge, JFK and Reagan cut taxes to everyone including the rich. But the Democrats want to play the class warfare card to gain power over the people. Those same Democrats that cried deficit spending when it comes to giving tax cuts to everyone want to add to our debt with extending unemployment benefits and now with this new 1,900 page $1.1 trillion spending bill. The Democrat also told us that after the last stimulus bill they wouldn't add any earmarks or pork to their bills. Talk about dishonest. But the left-wing will still give the talking points given to them by the Democratic Party like little sheeple. How do you explain these idiotic and relentless attacks on our economy with debt,pork and anti-capitalist actions?
