Do all Democrats agree about everything?
Governors and Senators have different concerns, and different people have different opinions whether they're both Republicans or otherwise. The fact remains, however, that if Republicans, and Libertarians, have to suffer through inflation or taxation for this spending package then we have as much right to the services that will be provided as the Democrats.
What about the districts whose Congressman voted "Yes," but the Senators voted "No?" Do they lose out on the funds? What about the family whose Congressman and Senators voted "No," but they supported it themselves? Do they not deserve the funds?
Also, I believe the whole point of this spending package is to "jolt" the economy back to life like it's Frankenstein. Some Keynesians are saying $800 billion isn't enough, and now you want to say certain sections of the country can't get the money. Doesn't that defeat the purpose all together? If you believe spending on a massive scale is what's called for then neglecting certain parts of the country makes no sense at all.
That is not a good argument, all governors and all senators disagree in the way they act: governors all accept the money while the senators vote against the money the governors are so glad to accept. It is hypocrite for republicans to take the money (governors) if you take no responsibility for getting the money from the taxpayers (senators).
Republicans are just being incredibly hypocrite, they let the democrats take the pounding for getting the money from the taxpayers and yet the republican governors are the ones who seem so glad to receive the money. I thought they voted against it because they thought spending was bad?
You know what is very appropriate here?
PUT YOUR MONEY WHERE YOUR MOUTH IS!!!!!
soon as every democrat returns their tax cuts we will do it.. we are right behind ya.. hypocrite.
That is an incredible ignorant statement:
Because you think that the governors are responsible for giving federal tax cuts? The federal state is responsible for the federal taxes, the governors never have anything to do with it.
My point is that democratic governors didn't cut taxes and never got any electoral gain from it, the republican governors will get electoral gain for the spending they will do with the money that the republican senators voted against.
I never stated anything about republican voters, I always spoke about politicians: BIG DIFFERENCE .
