I'm not embarrassed to be ignorant, because information addresses ignorance. Stupidity believes things because it wants to. Here is pandering: Why "spend" our surplus on the richest 1% when they don't need it? This is pandering: Let's the rest of us soak the fat cats. The top 1% pays 1/3 of all taxes--let's keep soaking them. The top 5% pays 96% of all taxes--let's keep soaking them. They want us to spend "our" surplus on them!" The 95% that is left, who pay 4% of taxes get the message. Let's keep them paying and call it our surplus. That is pandering my intelligent and informed friend. As Clinton says, if you want to live like a republican vote democrat. Cynicism pure and simple. Buying the poor man's vote by promising to take from the rich.
