Even though I am on disability, I paid into it when I was working, and therefore I get the benefit of the income, the stock market does not have that benefit. I do give to help people in need, and I do give to my church. The Bible speaks about a rich young ruler that Jesus told him to sell what he has and give it to the poor, but he went away sorrowful.

For the 2% of the most wealthy people of America, which they said and it is documented, that they do not need a tax break, that is what our President was wanting to spread around to the people of America that need it. Do you remember the good hero "Robin Hood" ? He took from the rich and gave to the poor....well we thought it was good of Robin Hood, why can't we think it is good of our President to help the poor.
So...You don't pay any taxes yourself except for property taxes.
And... the one tax you have to pay you complain because it's too high.

And yet you are angry because someone else didn't have their taxes go up?

In a nutshell you are angry because something didn't happen to others that you already don't want to happen to you?

Anybody noticing a contradiction here?
