Quote:How does it "hurt" the middle class to give give them a tax rebate? How is it "moronic" to think that an incremental $300 to the poor/middle class will mean more to them than $300 to the rich and therefore THEY are the exact ones who benefitted from it?
This reminded me of a Lewis Black bit about the same topic. It cost the government millions to mail out the letter notifying people that they would be receiving a check. Lewis' retort, why not include the letter with the check?
Another thing, logic has been brought up in the argument about voting and politics. The reality is there is no place for logic in politics.
