Kansas' Tax Cut Disaster


"The largest tax cuts went to those at the top, and Kansas actually raised taxes on the lowest-income families. Nothing in the Kansas economy’s subpar performance since these tax cuts were enacted suggests the benefits have “trickled down” to ordinary Kansans."

The same America that elected Obama President twice?

Remember, he ran on a net spending cut.

And his has been a fiscally responsible Administration, like most Democrats.

There's a vast sea of difference between that and disasters like Kansas. What's unfortunate in all this is that you're dreaming red in a blue state. I mean if you were in Kansas, and could report from the inside, that would be interesting. Especially with your wife being a public school teacher. I'd be fascinated to hear what it's like trying to work in fully gutted-out education system.

No, it hasn't. He piled on more debt in his first four years than Bush did in 8, for example, and that's with giving Bush all the hits for TARP and no credit for the payback.

She wasn't a public school teacher, but reporting from the inside wouldn't tell us much, anyway.
