NYTIMES TELLS IT LIKE IT IS>>>>>>>>>To be blunter, Mr. Bush's entire economic program is built on a stunning
combination of social inequity and flawed economic theory. He would
spend more than half the $2.2 trillion non-Social Security surplus on a tax
cut at a time when the economy does not need that stimulus. Moreover,
as Mr. Gore has said repeatedly and truthfully, over 40 percent of the
money would go to the wealthiest 1 percent of taxpayers. Mr. Bush
would expand some programs for schools, but he also embraces the
Republicans' ideologically driven approach of using vouchers to transfer
money from public to private schools. There is nothing compassionate or
conservative about blowing the surplus on windfalls for the wealthy
instead of investing it in fair tax relief and well-designed social programs.
