1. great chart

2. great. there was a newspaper one too I saw on DU the other day

showed where tax cuts and increases would be - basically Obama tax cuts for 99% of Americans, all but the very very wealthy. Can't remember who or from where...

I'll grab the image in a second but like to give credit...




so it seems to me like all we have to do is get 95% of Americans to vote their real self-interest and not fall for the "average" tax cut crap.
