About this cartoon: The Republican Party has been pushing hard to extend Bush-era tax cuts to everyone, including the very wealthiest of Americans. Even though the party claims it wants to control the deficit, giving tax breaks to the wealthiest could cost $700 billion... and the Republicans have been willing to holding working-class Americans hostage (refusing to extend unemployment benefits, even though those expenses create addtional revenue) in order to give the well-off a break that most Americans oppose.
