Republican appeals to the greedy.....
"Most Americans have more money in their pockets because of the taxcuts," Bush says. "After all, it is not the government's money, it is the people's money"... As if it doesn't matter if we have a tax base that will not even support a third-world country. The millionaires will get theirs and everyone else will be at their mercy. That's the way it is supposed to be in the Republican World.

They are not really concerned that 5 million more people are now without any health insurance since Bush took the office 4 years ago. Or that we are in debt up to our eyeballs. That just means we can't spend any money on people. And that's OK with Republicans.

1. Don't forget too - they earned all their money in a vacuum.
Roads, public schools, a national defense, laws protecting against unfair business practices, all those had NO ROLE WHATSOEVER in helping people earn all that moolah.

5. The idea that his tax cuts have put money in the pockets of the people is
Edited on Sun Oct-31-04 08:14 PM by KlatooBNikto
a myth.Even if they were true three years ago, the gas price rise alone ( over 100%) in the last twelve months has eaten up all of that money.And it ain't over yet.The fat lady ( inflation) hasn't even started singing.
