Kerry's payroll tax cut is paid for by rescinding the budget-busting estate tax on the very richest Americans,

You fool. The estate tax doesn't even come CLOSE to providing the revenue to replace even a SMALL payroll tax cut. The so-called "Kerry" plan is smoke & mirrors:

"One obvious objection to the idea is that a onetime tax cut is essentially a gimmick. It’s not certain to have any short-term impact and it makes no long-term contribution to the economy. The other objection is that a FICA cut could be seen as jeopardizing the sanctity of the Social Security trusts, which it doesn’t. "

Again, you're totally out of your league trying to discuss these subjects. You understand only what Kerry has told you.
