That is true, the Republican Governors are more than happy to use the Presidents proposals but to fund them on the backs of the Middle Class and Poor. That is the difference. The President wants to close loopholes to pay for the American Jobs Act, while the Republican Governors have absolutely problem further burdening the majority of taxpayers making less than $200,000 per year.
I have a question. For the amount of fuss the GOP raises over taxing those above $200,000 because there are many small businesses in that bracket, aren't their actually MORE sincerely small businesses in the tax bracket under $200,000? So, why tax them more? Taxing the lower income people will only sink them further in debt away from prospering and increasing their need for employees? It is ridiculous what the GOP Governors are doing to their states. They aren't giving the lower tax brackets a fighting chance at buying homes or improving their businesses to increase their wealth.
The GOP is not a good party to benefit the American people. They are draconian and ideological and corrupt. The only resemblance the GOP Governors have to President Obama is the fact they have copied his priorities; proving once and for all, the Republicans have no ideas and the President is 100% correct on the economy. The GOP causes more contracture in the USA economy and do not help the country recover.
...Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder (click title to entry - thank you) has cut business taxes, signed a balanced budget and squeezed the state bureaucracy, achievements his fellow Michigan Republicans hope to use to help defeat President Obama here in 2012.
Mr. Snyder also has proposed spending billions of dollars on roads, bridges, broadband service and mass transit—the kind of programs advocated by Mr. Obama and scorned by many Republicans as a waste of money....
