Why I like Susan Collins

[Flaylo]

Sen. Susan Collins: Tax The Rich To Fund Payroll Tax Cut For Workers

But Collins, often a maverick in her party, made a telling departure from the prevailing orthodoxy, arguing that job creators and the rich are not one and the same, and that actual job creators are businesses, such as small corporations and partnerships, that hire people."What I've been looking at is can you carve out those businesses from the surtax, and you can," Collins told reporters just outside the Senate chamber, explaining that there's a difference between working enterprises and idle rich.

"There is already a body of well-developed law in the tax code having to do with active business participation versus passive business participation," she said.

"I think that's the answer to this dilemma. I do not want to impose additional taxes on the employers at a time when our economy is very fragile and we want to encourage them to hire," Collins said. "On the other hand, I do believe that multimillionaires and billionaires who are not running businesses could pay more of their income to help us deal with the deficit."

Basically, the "hurting the job creators" excuse is out of the door, not to mention that the Bush tax cuts produded no created jobs.

By the way, its telling that the Repugs are now saying that tax cuts have to be paid for when they've been arguing before that they don't have to be paid and or that they pay for themselves- but only when it comes to a tax cut for the middle class that doesn't involve the rich. If they want to pay for the tax cut, take Obama's plan to keep the Bush tax cuts for the Middle class intact and let the tax cut for the top 1-2% expire.

I think your IQ can play hand ball against the curb. I guess its beyond your limited comprehension, like many left turds, when you tax some one you are reducing or lowering their purchasing power.

Susan Collins is an archetypal RINO. Thus beloved by any leftist.
Who was it who said raising taxes during a recession was bad policy? Oh yeah, Obama.

And you are complaining about IQ?

You are absolutely not hurting the purchasing power of someone making 20 million a year by raising their taxes.

There's only so much money one can spend in a year..or a life time.

And "the very rich" seldom risk their own money on new enterprise.

Money is not blood. The Constitution mandates revenue for the government be generated from taxes. And it makes sense to tax those who have benefitted most and use most of the government goods, infrastructure and services to accrue wealth.

The North won the civil war dear. The whole "State's rights" thing should have been settled back then..along with the slavery question.

Libs answer to any money problem is to TAX the rich. How but we cut some spending before you hit the RICH for even more money. They pay most of the taxes as it is. The Libs wont be happy until they take 100 percent of their income!
