What’s black, white and red all over?! The massive federal tax and spending bill currentlymoving through Congress after our track changes Xed out all of the things that would make billionaires wealthier and more powerful while the rest of us are left to get sicker and poorer. And while the Senate is attempting to ram the bill through to meet its self-imposed July 4th deadline, the administration is running a pump fake to divert America’s attention from the greatest redistribution of wealth in history to an unnecessary military entanglement in the Middle East that is barreling us ever so close to world war. You might wanna pour up a double for this one.
