I find it absolutely amazing when liberals...and the liberal media...talk about how tax cuts are going to "cost" the government!! Cost to government?? How can it cost the government to give us tax cuts?? It's OUR money...not THEIR money!!For instance...the AP ran a story on February 3 in which the writer, Andrew Taylor stated: "The cost of renewing those tax cuts exceeds $300 billion by 2013, according to congressional scorekeepers." THAT logic simply escapes me!!
It costs the government nothing to keep Bush's tax cuts in place because it's not money they would have anyway!! Now, does it mean they can't spend as much...yes it does. Does it mean it costs them something...no it doesn't. That's the arrogance of Washington D.C....they think our money is their money!!
I don't know...maybe I'm just crazy...but saying tax cuts costs the government money is like saying my boss cutting back R&D cost me money because the company can't grow as much and therefore I can't get a bigger raise. That's convoluted thinking....but then again, we're talking about liberals!!
