Do you ever tire of spewing ideologically based lies and bullshit?
The above is simplistic BS and essentially wrong. In fact, Obama has cut taxes.
But you're a very good sheep.
In his speech at the Democratic National Committee in Charlotte, N.C., President Barack Obama mocked Republicans for turning to tax cuts as the solution to every problem.
"Have a surplus? Try a tax cut. Deficit too high? Try another. Feel a cold coming on? Take two tax cuts, roll back some regulations, and call us in the morning!" Obama said.
"Now, Iâve cut taxes for those who need it â middle-class families and small businesses. But I donât believe that another round of tax breaks for millionaires will bring good jobs to our shores, or pay down our deficit," Obama said.
Obama is often accused by Republicans of raising taxes, and he has raised some taxes during his presidency. Heâs also said that he intends to raise income tax rates for couples who make more than $250,000 a year or single people who make more than $200,000 a year.
Here, weâre going to look at his claim to cut taxes for "middle-class families and small businesses." (Weâve been tracking all of Obamaâs campaign promises about taxes on our Obameter.)
Obama has signed off on two major tax cuts for middle-class families: the Making Work Pay tax credit that was part of the economic stimulus of 2009 and a temporary reduction in Social Security payroll taxes that went into effect in 2011.

It was meant as a little humor. At least the cute little girl who cut my hair tonight likes my jokes.
NO moron, we wouldn't. I despise ten gallon hats.

This shows that we literally spend our money in the direct opposite way of what would be most beneficial, if you were to take the numbers and flip them upside down, that would be the proper way for the government to spend money for the most part.
This is a little misleading, as working people paid into separate social security and medicare funds their entire working lives. There was a promise that you pay now and get benefits later. People were kind of encouraged to believe they had their own social security account that was building up like an IRA, but of course that was a lie.
It's hard to believe NYers could do worse than than tyrant Bloomberg but they did. Hard to single them out though. Can anyone name a big city that is not run by an incompetent, corrupt or hopelessly misguided leftwing wacko? Even Charlotte, NC has joined the list.
