Too Much Study

This is like doing one more study on whether or not humans are causing global warming.

Families earning more than $1 million a year saw their federal tax rates drop more sharply than any group in the country as a result of President Bush’s tax cuts, according to a new Congressional study.

The study, by the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office, also shows that tax rates for middle-income earners edged up in 2004, the most recent year for which data was available, while rates for people at the very top continued to decline.

We're getting hosed while the rich get richer by doing nothing more than writing checks to the ReThugs & the dumbass members of the Democratic Party.

Another Drowning Victim

This is the kind of thing that Ashland, WI, needs to think about when some on the city council want to cut the fire department. The desire by ReThugs to cut taxes led directly to the death of this woman. I hope they & the sheep that followed them are happy.
Gloucester firefighters took more than 11 minutes to reach a burning house late Sunday, only to find a 42-year-old woman dead inside, 1 mile from a fire station that had been closed recently because of budget cuts
