Its not that complicated Rob.
The Republicans want to protect their tax cut. The Democrats want to stop them from doing so.
Yeah, I know more than the tax cut is involved, its also about unions, EPA, campaign financing, gerrymandering and a million other issues. But what it all reduces to is do we want a country where labor rules, or management?
American politics always resolves itself in the final analysis to the age-old war between the workers and the bosses, and everything else is a smokescreen. I see myself as an employee, you clearly see yourself as a manager.
