The tax-the-rich lie

The Democrats never change. The party of bureaucrats, big unions, and most of the news and entertainment media, always justify their enlargement of the bureaucracy by claiming they will tax the rich to pay for it.

As usual, however, their latest tax-the-rich scheme turns out to have reached down and clobbered the lower middle class: folks earning $30,000 a year in payroll checks. Which Barry lied about, of course.

But many of these folks (as usual) bought the lie and voted to tax the rich, presumably because they hate people who are better off than they are. So they are getting what they deserve, one more generation of suckers.
