Political Comment

Last week I posted a message arguing that tax breaks that went to the lower segments of the working citizenry would have a better chance of stimulating the economy than additional tax breaks for the upper 5% (with the idea that the benefits would somehow trickle down). I came across a chart that backs up my assertion, though it covers other areas than just tax breaks, including expanding Unemployment Insurance, spending on infrastructure, and various other ways to put money in the hands of those who would actually spend it. Check it out.
