Fairy Tales from Washington

Dec 11, 2017

The politicians in Washington are planning to pass a tax bill, even though the polls show that the majority of the population is against it. And there is a good reason why most people are against the bill. It is all about cutting taxes for the wealthy and corporations, even though the rich hardly pay any taxes as it is.

Trump and the rest of them are telling us that if they give more money to the corporations, the bosses will share it with their workers. In other words, they tell us that if they cut Ford’s taxes, Ford is going to turn around and give its workers a raise???

Anybody who believes that fairy tale, please raise your hand!
