The Rightwing 53%ers Want To Tax The Disabled, Including Veterans

Economy

The other day I covered how the 53%ers are apparently against the very policies they have advocated for years. The 47% of people not paying federal income tax do so in a large part because of the Bush tax cuts and we know the right has been a long time advocate of those tax cuts. […]
