Middle Class Task Force.........YEAH RIGHT!!

Middle Class Task Force.........YEAH RIGHT!!

PostBy: plantman On: Sat Mar 07, 2009 3:01 pm

Was happy to see that the "Middle Class Task Force" got going this week. The "blurp" that I read about it gave annual salaries of all the members of the "MCTF". Lowest was $130,000.00, to just over $220,000.00. "Joe" is in charge of the thing, and I'm sure he has a real connection with the middle class........ ;) .
Your comments as to how these "clowns" will have any effect on the Middle Class?? Maybe it would be a wise idea to include just ONE person from the Middle Class.............yeah right!!!

Whiners.

Instead of yanking your cranks here, why don't you guys submit your ideas -- that is, if you have any. :roll2:

Self employed here and business is good. Not crank yankin at all. Would just like to know WHY there are no middle class on the "Task Force"?? The key to a strong middle class is to cut taxes for employers, that way we have the ability to employ more.

Thanks for the link, thought you'd like a copy of my "civic duty"

Try paying your middle class task force less than six figures so they can see what it's like. Maybe have someone on the panel who actually is middle class. Washington has a history of making things worse instead of better. As someone who aspires to be middle class, I'm not confident in your team.

It's not like I'm worried about "standing out". I was at the Freedom March in D.C. You'd be surprised at how many cameras disguised as street lamps there are down there.

And I ran as a delegate for Ron Paul, as well as donated money during the "money bomb" so I'm sure I'm on all kids of troublemaker lists.

I also put in a little time stuffing envelopes for the mayor's re-election and talked to the local Republican committee about running for city council. If "they" want me, they know where to find me. :D
