    When you ask these question, please indicate with sources where it actually aided the middle-class. Please. I am middle-class, earning $38,000 a year for accounting, and yet I only saw a cut that was pocket change.

    Source(s): Florida by the way... so we exchanged good salaries for nice weather.

    As a matter of fact I do not remember that. I do remember everyone who was not a connie saying that the rich are the only ones who really benefited from the Bush Tax cuts. Funny story, the cuts were passed using Reconciliation.

    Most of the tax cuts were for the wealthy.

    Happy now? The republicans voted against the bush tax cuts for the middle class.

    You must have selective hearing. The only thing the left complain about was extending it for the rich too..
