We hope to see you on Monday! At 4:15pm (til 5:30pm), outside the Saturn Club (977 Delaware Ave, Buffalo, NY 14209), we and an array of community groups will be sharing our view of the GOP tax plan(s). That is, the 99% including especially
– children whose futures are being mortgaged;
– college students,
– the working classes, and
– homeowners
all of whose interest and state & local tax deductions are being denied,
– those will health problems,
all will be handing over a gigantic check to millionaires and billionaires, including Harold Gottbucks. The majority of beneficiaries of this scheme will be in the Saturn Club listening to Chris Collins extol the virtues of taking from the majority to give to the rich.
