Let\u2019s eliminate General Electric\u2019s special tax deals so it actually pays some income tax. No more subsidies for billionaires to promote phony green energy proposals. If you want to talk about defunding the rich I\u2019m all for it. Let\u2019s stop giving $140 million to AT&amp;T, $202 million dollars to the United Auto Workers. In fact, let\u2019s stop giving automobile companies to the unions. You want to defund the rich? Fine, stop giving tax breaks to GE, your corporate crony buddy. <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Just to repeat: You got Van Hollen and Pelosi and Reid, the whole Democrat Party with their cliched reaction to the Ryan budget, which is: &#8220;Tax cuts for the rich! Health care cuts for the sick! All of these people are gonna be put out of their homes,&#8221; the same old stuff they\u2019ve been saying for 30 years. Okay, let\u2019s cut taxes for the rich. You people in Mediaite getting this? You people at Media Matters? Start writing: Let\u2019s cut taxes for the rich. TARP was for the rich, rich banker bailouts. Not all of it has been spent. Let\u2019s defund what remains. Let\u2019s return the money to the taxpayers. General Electric, in bed with the regime, paid no federal income taxes. <\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s eliminate whatever special deal they\u2019ve got so that they will now pay some federal income tax. GE\u2019s a rich company. And how about we just eliminate subsidies of millions of dollars for billionaires to promote this phony &#8220;green energy&#8221; idea. Let\u2019s get rid of ethanol subsidies for massive farm corporations. Let\u2019s get rid of the federal laws that make trial lawyers among the richest people in the country.<\/p>\n<p>END TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>*Note: Links to content outside RushLimbaugh.com usually become inactive over time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: I\u2019ll tell you what we\u2019ll do.
