No they aren't. The poor get SFA

It's a fucking fact, the amount those tax cuts provide the poor is fuck all.

But they are providing tax cuts, aren't they?

You said they're providing tax cuts for the bottom 3 brackets when the reality is that that don't make a jot of difference for anyone but that rich. I don't take an issue with your assertion that that the tax cuts exist, i take exception to you implying that it especially targets the lowest brackets
