“Sure and that is what we need to face. If you are going to have tax cuts then, for goodness sake, have the honesty and the integrity to pay for those tax cuts so it is not coming out of the hide of the most vulnerable among us. There are some tax cuts in the Democratic proposal, but they are aimed at the broad middle class in this country. They were designed to stimulate the economy and they are paid for. And in all three of those respects they contrast with these upper-bracket tax cuts which our Republican friends are trying to peddle as an economic stimulus when I do not know any economist who is going to tell you you get much bang for the buck from cutting the tax on dividends for goodness sake. The estimate I have heard is 9 cents on the dollar. That is not a very good return.”
