Another lawmaker spills the beans

Senator John Kerry showed his true elitist colors on the Senate floor last Friday when he spoke about the "stimulus" bill, as caught and analyzed by Mary Katharine Ham at The Weekly Standard:

I've supported many tax cuts over the years, and there are tax cuts in this proposal. But a tax cut is non-targeted.

If you put a tax cut into the hands of a business or family, there's no guarantee that they're going to invest that or invest it in America.

They're free to go invest anywhere that they want if they choose to invest.

God forbid that the peasantry would actually get to keep their own money and spend it (or not) on whatever they wish, instead of mindlessly doing what the Senators think they should be doing with it, because only the mighty overlords know what's best for the unwashed.

What a patronizing jerk.
