when Alaska loses Stevens (and Young). The federal funds received to federal taxes paid ratio has been egregiously in Alaska’s favor for way too long. In the highway bill alone Alaska get $5 in federal highway funds for every $1 they pay in the federal fuel tax.
The only tax McCain talks about raising is the one that most disproportionately impacts middle and lower income Americans, once again leaving the people at the top virtually untouched. Once again McCain shows his enthusiasm for throwing working Americans as well as the vets he has consistently voted against, under the bus while making the care and feeding of the mega-rich his highest priority. The same old trickle down philosophy with crap as the only thing doing the trickling.
How Republicans manage to get people to not notice that their income to cost of living ratio plummets while the national debt sky rockets under Republican administrations while the opposite is true under Dems is a mystery. Chalk it up to extremely low information voters, I guess.
