All those predictions about how much economic growth will be created by this, all of those new jobs, would be created by the things we wanted - the extension of unemployment insurance and middle class tax cuts. An estate tax for millionaires adds exactly zero jobs. A tax cut for billionaires - virtually none.

  • -- Anthony Weiner 韦纳

所有这些关于经济增长的预测,所有这些新的就业机会,都将由我们想要的东西创造出来——延长失业保险和中产阶级减税。对百万富翁征收遗产税,就业机会几乎为零。为亿万富翁减税——实际上没有。
