JDC Government Machinations: Why does Congresswoman Debbie Halvorson choose to tax everything against the peoples' will?
Illinoisan Congressional Representative of the 11th District falls short as a proponent of what the American people want. . .an ear of concern, a voice of reason and a humble servant. Could that shortfall be because she is an inexperienced first-term Democrat or because she's afraid to ruffle the skirt of Nancy Pelosi, voting with the Speaker of the House 93% of the time according to the investigative reporting of the Washington Post.
In the fall 2010 issue of The Examiner, the Taxpayer's Voice states: "Hurricane Debbie on Destructive Path."
Hurricane Debbie landed a long time ago. She has contributed to a Democratic cauldron bubbling over with a fiery mix of economic job loss and irresponsible spending by choice. Her demeanor condescending, side stepping issues with what is Democratic political rhetoric in placating voters with spin.
Democrat Halvorson sends out emails touting voter concerns, yet the content doesn't sound as if she is listening, let alone care what a voter thinks, why a voter thinks it and what a voter expects her to do. By her actions and written messages, it comes across not about the wants of the American voter, it's about what politicians generally do - cover their backside in political posturing and the stroking of We the People.
Glue your pockets America: Her to do list has been to side with the majority in putting off a vote to extend the Bush tax cuts, until "after" the November 2010 elections. Humm, I wonder why? Even now the Feds are printing the new increased payroll deduction brochures going out to all employers later this year. The decision was already made; Democrats must believe Americans to stupid to realize it.
Could it be Democrats believe by ignoring the vote it will help reelect their party? Could it be they still don't understand how the economic cycle works? The more you earn the more reinvestment into economic and social issues occur that many on Main Street find more difficult to do.
The earned capital and profits allows for reinvestment, keeps the cogs in the various wheels of opportunity moving, growing and strengthening the business cycle with innovation, job creation and the level of living patterns Americans have grown accustom too.
Depending on allowable tax deductions, this lack of action will cost an income earner of $40,000 a year, a hefty $2600.00 more in payroll taxes. One would think the sane thing to do would be to extend the cuts into 2011 and seriously evaluate its effect on the economy short and long-term, and not in the middle of an economic plunder.
After-all, if you the taxpayer spend it, you pay the consequences, if any . . . but, if big government does, they don't and you do. How far are you willing to bend over?
Can Illinois residents afford Debbie Halvorson's political reach from within the Beltway into the pocket books of hard-working citizens? To understand how Ms. Halvorson thinks and what she has done or not done, look at her congressional record at: http://thomas.gov and click on the Congressional Record link. You may be surprised at how much of her legislative sessions is insignificant.
