Much has been made of the $2 billion tax loophole for corporate jets. For the right wing, it's insignificant and petty when trillions need to be cut. But as Rachel Maddow points out, the austerity budget pushed by the GOP goes after programs that only cost millions, not billions. So which is it; million dollar cuts add up and need to be cut for the poorest and most vulnerable, or the wealthy's small $2 billion write-offs for corporate jets isn't worth touching?
Or how about restoring that $2 billion job training program in exchange for the corporate jet subsidy?
You failed to mention the billions in humanitarian bombs that are costing lives in Libya on the 2 week or days experiment in military leadership.....what was that national interest again?
