Can't see the trees for the forest! When they get finished it is still a myth. Claim they give you "$13 a week" but in reality take much more. Eh, you know me. Can’t see the trees for the forest!

When they get finished it is still a myth. Claim they give you “$13 a week” but in reality take much more.

There are idiots out there that seem to think that Comrade Obama's tax cuts will stimulate the economy and put people back to work. My answer back to these government educated moron's is that if they think $13 a week will save the world, then why wait for a tax cut? Start doing it now.

Exactly how many movie tickets does that buy in your area? That will pay for ONE adult here. Fast food? That's not 2 meals I normally get at Wendy's. Consider it one adult at Golden Corral. Perhaps that "$13 a week" would mean something if the price of groceries, other taxes, health care and other items were not increasing much more than the "$13 a week"? Sales tax went up. Property tax increased. The cost of my physical required for my licenses went up. Vehicle license plates increased. DirecTV bill went up. Cell phone taxes increased as well. So, just because a claim of some federal politician that they are not going to charge me "$13 a week" does not mean they are finding other ways to take that "$13 a week" and then some... “$13 a week” huh?
