Let me take a wild stab here. You are against Bush's tax cuts because they favor the rich (while liking such poor candidates as Gore, Hillary, and Edwards). Now who do you think $6 gas will hurt more: (a) a garderner's assistant making $30K/yr or (b) Al Gore?
Bush tax cuts--well, I think we ought not run huge
deficits. But I'd probably axe a lot of stuff that
goes to seniors--after all, I am 40. I really don't
get a lot out of all that money that sloshes toward
the AARP set.
And no, I do not care for any of those names, although
it would not surprise me if Gore ends up running. Anyway,
if there is one candidate I like here in the early early
going, it would be Rudy Giuliani, but I have to be honest--
I'm not looking to closely yet, they all seem pretty flaky.
$6 a gallon gas might get some folks off the road, and
then I could go faster. So that is good for me. And it
might get me on my bike an extra dozen or so times a
month in the summer--which would be good for my fat gut.
Win win. Oh, and I'd like to see more stuff shipped by
train and those big semi trucks off the interstate, so
expensive diesel would be good.
You seem angry, what is up with that? Are you underfed and
underentertained. I think not. No American can complain
about much of anything we have it so good. |
