For lower taxes, vote Republican. |

Well, that's what the moran's bumper sticker said. Of course it was on an oversized gas-guzzling SUV.
I want one that says "For fiscal responsibility, vote Democrat!

3. We should pass a consumption tax of some kind on cars |
|
If you want to buy a gas-guzzling SUV, you should be allowed to do so, but you should be made to pay for the disproportionate amount of damage your vehicle does to the environment above all other vehicles. I say the best way to do that is to levy a tax on the type of car one purchases. If you want to buy an SUV and it's not for business or necessity but leisure, you should pay several thousand dollars worth of tax on that. If you want to purchase a fuel efficient vehicle like a Corolla or a Civic or any of the hybrids, you should receive a tax credit worth several thousand dollars.

4. That fool probably never looks at his paychecks. |
|
Mine keep dwindling thanks to increasing taxes... last time I checked, Dems aren't in power. And how much of a difference would it make? (sorry to offend anyone, but I'm not sure the veracity of any politician anymore...)

5. We'll see, as all of those new people get hit with the AMT this year |

Any Bush tax cut that they got will be eaten up, along with the higher electric bills, gas bills and health insurance premiums.

6. Don't read the fine print. Just vote Republican. |

You get lower taxes.
Lower taxes only applies to wealthy. And you get global warming, no health care, wars, higher gas prices, lousy economy, corruption in government, debt, torture, hatred from rest of world...

than lower taxes. And more to the US and the needs of it's citizens than lower taxes. The stupid lower tax fucks shit when they hit a pothole with their "Beemer" but scream bloody murder if their taxes go up. You get what you pay for and you don't get what you DON'T pay for.
