“no tax increases on nobody”
Hensarling Remarks:
“Where are the jobs? The Democrats have tried to spend their way into more jobs with the stimulus. Three million of our fellow Americans have lost their jobs. Unemployment hovers around 10%. The Democrats have tried to ‘bailout’ their way into more jobs – serial bailouts of Fannie, Freddie, and UAW. The list goes on. Unemployment hovers at 10%, and three million have lost their jobs.”
“The Democrats have tried to borrow their way into more jobs: two deficits in a row over a trillion dollars, highest debt in American history. Unemployment hovers around 10%. Three million have lost their jobs.”
“Now Democrats want to try to tax their way into more jobs through a tax on small business and investors. I don’t know if it is ideological blindness or economic incompetence, but the Democrats do not get it. Republicans are united: ‘No tax increases on nobody.’ Now that may be poor grammar, but it is sound economics. We demand on behalf of the American people, an up or down vote on tax relief – tax relief for all Americans.”
