Tax Cuts Extended

Last week the United States Congress and President Obama came to an agreement to extend the so-called "Bush Tax Cuts." This means that individuals who earn more than $200,000 and couples who earn more than $250,000 will continue to pay a lower federal tax rate. Translation: Wealthy people in America will have more disposable income in their pockets.

you have to wonder about a few things:
1. The US must the only country that gives tax cuts to the top 2% of its richest!!!
2. it doesnt make economic sense , we learnt something different in economics tax the rich and give to the poor.

but it cuts to the core of the values or lack thereof in the US at the moment. Trying to justify their amoral behaviour but disguising it as an economic stimulator is ludicrisy. we all see through it, but do nothing about it. What this extension means in effect is that Bush benefits from his own laws.... i dunno about you, but this sounds like a conflict of interest to me.

Sanity seems to have left the US administration adn so we all become victims to these false morals and false prophets who only think of themselves and cannot think beyond the next dollar in the bank, nevermind the void of resources and values they leave in their wake.
