This started with Clip-Clop saying that no, nobody has ever given tax cuts to the wealthy on the backs of the poor.

The Ryan budget and Walker's budget are the obvious examples of doing exactly that.

Reality - it's far too complicated for some.
Can I see this in writing as proof too please?

Yes. You should read your own posts. You said:

Duh. It exists in Walker's budget bill, where pension contributions by the state were cut to pay for Walker's tax cuts.

Dismissed.

That isn't what you said that I said, first of all. You claimed I said "nobody has ever given tax cuts to the wealthy on the backs of the poor." I asked for proof of that. Not that I researched a document and was unable to verify what you want to believe.
Second asking someone for proof of what they are saying is not denial, it is a request for proof of these documents actually saying what you claim they do.
"It exists in Walker's budget bill, where pension contributions by the state were cut to pay for Walker's tax cuts. "
OK but where???

You said what you said. I said Walker's budget. You say that's not true. Then you went off in a frenzy of parsing. Believe whatever you wish to believe Your beliefs have no effect on what Walker's budget actually did to people.

You are saying that Walker's budget did not cut state contributions to pension funds? Yes or no? The answer is factually yes.

You are saying Walkers budget didn't have tax cuts? The answer is factually yes, it did.

Did the money the state save from pensions and benefits go to pay for the tax cuts? In the face of a massive budget deficit? The reason that pensions and benefits "had" to be cut? Yes, factually, that money did cover the tax cuts. Not the deficit.

I ask for proof, you say look here. I actually go and look and it isnt there. You say no not there over here etc. etc.
Providing only your opinion as proof of what you say, if something is in a budget it is written in there. Show everyone and prove your self right.

You are seriously "demanding written proof" that Scott Walker's budget cut the state's contributions to union pension funds? And gave tax cuts?

BWAAAAAAAA ! You're a loon

Ask Wiphan. And Pointman. And Dell. And the Milwaukee-Journal Sentinel. And Act 10. Look - as I've told you to before - where Walker himself has said the money has gone. Look what fund the money has been placed into. They have all pointed out that has happened. We've sorta been discussing it for some months now? They can explain it to you

Tax cuts for the wealthy and used the specific SAVINGS from asking normal people to contribute to their retirements.

Why aren't you attacking Jerry Brown or Chuck Reed or Cuomo or John Scibak for doing the exact same thing?

I know, I have been down this road too many times and it always ends the same way. Just a slow day at the office. Thursdays are always quiet here.

As an employer, I'll note that you are an interesting representation of the quality of today's work force.

As an owner of two companies and an employer of a great many folks, I am entitled to as many slow days as I can get. See I am non-union and therefore have to often work more than 40 hours a week!! Sometimes even on weekends.
