GOP do-nothings do nothing, again

[Guns Guns Guns]

More grandstanding from the party of the super-rich...


Cantor & Co. are trying to pretend they are "creating jobs" again...with more tax cuts for the rich...

​

The House GOP measure would have let employers with fewer than 500 workers deduct 20 percent of their domestic earnings this year — a calculation that would let businesses show a smaller income before determining the taxes they owe.


More than 99 percent of U.S. employers have workforces that size, Census Bureau figures show, but that didn't stop Republicans from naming the legislation the "Small Business Tax Cut Act."


The bill was too unfocused, providing the tax cut if a company hired no new employees or even if it fired some.


One estimate by the nonpartisan Tax Policy Center said 49 percent of its tax breaks would go to taxpayers with income exceeding $1 million.


The Joint Committee on Taxation, Congress' nonpartisan tax analyst, said 18 percent of the benefits would go those making over $1 million and 57 percent would go to taxpayers earning $250,000 and up.

odd that when the House passes a bill and sends it to the Senate and the Senate takes no action on it or anything else, it's the Republicans who are accused of doing nothing....

The House Republicans knew their bill would die in the upper house before they made their grandstand play, PiMP.

So they wasted time and money on another "symbolic" gesture (like "reaffirming that In God We Trust is our motto) while doing nothing to help the people who elected them.

Let me know when you need simple concepts like this explained again.

I wish this wasn't so funny.

If yurt speaks and no one listens, does he still lie?

Did I say that, PiMP?


I said the House Republicans passed a useless bill they knew had no chance in the Senate...

What have the conservative Tea-rorists done since they gained the House majority?

Name their accomplishments.
