Politicians always get into some serious semantics gymnastics during campaigns. Obama says he is going to give a tax cut to 95% of the American workers. Since almost half of the people do not pay income tax that is impossible. His explanation is that he is going to give them a "refund" even if they pay no tax. This really means he is giving them a welfare payment. To me, this is not semantics, but rather is an outright deception. He is going to take money from those who pay taxes, and give it to those who do not. Obama calls this social justice. It sounds like a bribe to me: vote for me and I'll give you money. Republics often end when the citizens start voting themselves money. That demise may be accelerated in the current situation as the Democrats and Acorn endeavor to sign up people who are not citizens to vote themselves money.
