29. That is the point.
Edited on Sun Dec-12-10 08:01 PM by RandomThoughts
If they are going to lie about a compromise, as they will, and as they did.

Then they don't get it.

They trashed health care, then blamed that on the Democrats for it having the things they said on the news they pushed for.


My point is simple, the rich don't need a tax break, and can not explain why they should have it. Furthermore, they lie through media saying what they get in compromise is the fault of democrats.


If they want that as a compromise, they should say that is what they did in every campaign speech, or don't compromise with them. That would be an honorable integrity compromise.



Although not always possible to even know how much is what is correct, and what is spin, so the point is the ideal.


If the bill says that it is giving tax breaks to consolidated wealth, either the bill is wrong, or those saying that is what the bill is doing is wrong, so it has to change. And it seems the narrative is they used tax breaks for rich to get other things, if that is not the case, then the problem is the news. There is also a narrative that they used threats of not passing other bills and blaming the democrats to get tax cuts for those that don't need it.


If the information is not correct, or will not be correct on what is done, then don't do it, if you do then you are helping liars. If you know they will lie about it.


If the media is lying or distorting, then someone should say that till it is corrected.

See the point.



Side note, if it is about other things, and people are not told, then the system that does that has to come down, or be repaired.
