Dixonrants Fanpage: www.tinyurl.com CORRECTION: The bill would actually cut federal income taxes for the first $35000 everyone makes, which would imply that people making that, or less than that, wouldn't pay any federal income tax, and those that make more would also get a cut. In this video, I explain the new proposal made by Representative Alan Grayson, a progressive liberal democrat from Florida (and one of my personal favorites,) in Congress that would cap spending for the two wars (Iraq and Afghanistan,) and use the saved money to make it so people making $35000 or less and families making up to $70000 won't have to pay ANY federal income tax.

Florida's firebrand Democratic congressman, Alan Grayson, shows the courage, clarity & conviction that Democrats will need to win in 2010 Elections. This iPhone clip (the real camera wasn't on hand for Grayson's surprise visit) captures the kind of messaging strategy, strength and enthusiasm that can help win back Democrats, Independents, and reasonable Republican voters who may have lost track of or been distracted from the critical nature of just how much is at stake in these 2010 midterm elections. As US Rep. Grayson makes so clear, we face nothing less than a path-defining choice in these 2010 political campaigns - in Florida & nationwide - a choice between a mainstream, moderate Democratic Party vision for the future that seeks social and economic fairness and progress for All Americans - and radical right wing Republican Party rhetoric, values and policies, designed to stir up Racial & Class conflict, divide the country, and grab as much more power as possible...While working behind a cloak of anti-government "populism" to serve only the best interests of the wealthiest individuals and corporations in America. TIME TO START ROCKING THE VOTE...
