US bonds sure look promising now.....

WASHINGTON - Republicans promise that a $70 billion election-year package extending lower rates for investors and saving billions for families with above-average incomes will produce economic gains for the nation.

2 things.


1 Money for those that need it least.

2 Don't have enough money to pay for what your currently spending.... so cut your income not your spending??? :hot:

"Above-average incomes?"

Translation: The rich will be saving mucho dinero.

I saw somewhere that these latest cuts will save about $20 for middle income families, while those in the top .2% will save about $42,000.

The price breakdown I saw on the news last night said 0 dollars if your income is under $14,000 per year, about 20 bucks if you are between 35 and 70, 2 grand if youy are above 75, and $84,000 if your income was higher than I think 1 mil. Kinda silly if you ask me, you are returning money to the people who need it the least and putting us further in the hole.
