He likely also wants the Taxpayers to fit the bill.
Heck, if he cut a trillion from the budget, i wouldnt mind if the taxpayers fit that bill. It would be worth the cost and we'd still vote him out of office.
Which is what conservatives want with their tax cuts. You just want the cuts to go to the wealthy...at the expense of the poor.
"But but it's already OUR money. It's not the government's money or their choice to decide who it goes to!" You have elected officials. If you want to change what's happening - ELECT DIFFERENT PEOPLE.
Obama's support this time around won't be nearly as overwhelming. The cat's out of the bag. We've seen the magic show.
One of my principles is "A conservative is never so tall as when she stoops to help a liberal."
On that basis, I'll explain the correct way of thinking to you:
"...conservatives want with their tax cuts. You just want the cuts to go to the wealthy...at the expense of the poor." is flawed for several reasons.
1. You are incorrect- need I say 'as usual'?- in that what conseratives actually want is that no one remain poor.
2. Policies of the liberals, the Left, the Democrats make sure that folks remain poor and in dire circumstances. Proof? Sure...look at the
cities that are traditionally Democrat fiefdoms....and you will see poverty and degradation and crime .
3. Now, this next nugget of knowledge may be beyond your comprehension, but bear with me: your post assumes that there is an eternal group known as
'the poor.'
The truth, as explained by Dr. Thomas Sowell is the following:
More than three-quarters of those working Americans whose incomes were in the bottom 20 percent in 1975 were also in the top 40 percent of income earners at some point by 1991, says Sowell.

There's a lot of
income mobility in America, so comparing poor families today with the poor families of 10 years ago can be misleading because they're not the same families. Every year hundreds of thousands of new immigrants and the young enter the workforce at "poor" income levels. But the CBO study found that, with the exception of chronically poor families who have no breadwinner,
low-income job holders are climbing the income ladder.The Poor Get Richer - WSJ.com
Now, show that you are capable of learning by saying 'now, I see,' and never making that mistake again.
