Reply #30: Tea party is for taxed enough already

[abelenkpe]

They were anti tax protests. After Obama was elected they all thought their taxes were going to go up. They still think the president is trying to raise their taxes.
Somehow they miss the point that when democrats talk about letting the bush tax cuts expire that they are also trying to keep the tax cuts for everyone making under 250,000 a year (200,000 for individuals) but ONLY raise them on those who can afford to pay more. (thank you FOX news)
They blame the economic crisis on government regulations and policies, the poor, immigrants, and irresponsible youth for taking out loans they couldn't afford. Never do they blame the financial industry, banks, lobbyists or the wealthy. Tea partiers are part of the 99 percent but still fight for policies that harm them and keep them down.
Do they belong at the OWS protests? Despite not wanting them around because I'm sick of their stubborn stupidity, they actually are part of the 99 percent but I'd be surprised if they showed up at all. And if they do, can't imagine tea partiers or libertarians would stay once they realize that unions also support OWS. Especially after spending the past two years foaming at the mouth at how all public sector unions are evil.
