But you say you are a libertarian.]

You really don't get it.

Do you suppose a union, say the teachers union, got a 2% raise for its teachers, but an equal reduction to be made in contributions to the pension fund, it would be happy?

This is no tax break this is just moving money from your right pocket to your left hoping you don't lose any in the transfer.

Me? You are the one who professes to be "libertarian", yet you are blindly defending and trying to maintain an unfunded tax cut for the wealthy that cost this country trillions and put us in debt, while on the other hand trying to justify the poor and middle class paying increased taxes.
