Senate GOP kills small-business tax cut bill
“…small business owners would get a new tax incentive to hire new workers and/or increase payroll wages, on top of a break businesses claim on capital investments. An independent firm that specializes in economic modeling concluded that the Democratic proposal could create nearly 1 million jobs…
A majority of the Senate supported the measure, but the modern Senate no longer operates by majority rule. Democrats couldn’t break a Republican filibuster so the bill is dead.
Republicans said they felt the need to kill the legislation because Reid denied them the chance to water it down with a series of amendments.
And since procedural concerns are obviously more important than lowering unemployment, the GOP argument doesn’t seem to surprise anyone”

Business as usual for a Congress 9 out of 10 Americans hate.

What became of the GOP motto “they haven’t seen a tax cut they didn’t like”?
