STFU, Conservatives
itsallabitharrypotter: ryking: Infographic: Tax Cuts for Millionaires vs. Nutrition Assistance House Republicans recently proposed $833 million worth of cuts to the Special Supplemental Nutritional Program for Women, Infants and Children, or WIC in next year’s budget (FY2012), the equivalent of kicking between 325,000 to 475,000 eligible mothers, infants, and children off of one of the nation’s most cost-effective programs. Ultimately over $650 million in cuts to the program are on the table in the bill that Congress will debate later this month. [Right-wingers] justified the cut on the grounds that tackling our nation’s deficits requires “shared sacrifice.” But the tax cuts they recently fought to extend will give away more money to America’s 300,000 millionaires this week than it will cost to adequately fund this critical nutrition program for all of next year. Not exactly “pro-life” of the GOP to throw women, infants, and children under a bus just to make millionaires and billionaires even wealthier, is it? I want to make posters of this and put it all over the Capital building. Or I would if it wasn’t illegal to fart in the wrong place there. They’re pro-life, unless you’re already born and actually need to eat.
