LIAR. Bush's tax cut only benefited the very rich. What are you, a whore who bends over and takes it up the rear for the Walton family even if it costs you personally? Bush's tax cuts would save the Walton family 50 billion. All of which turns into national debt and deficits. Meanwhile your highways aren't fixed. No one responds during natural disasters. Your get poor health care. Your education and energy bills sky-rocket and if and when you need help, the government isn't there.

Also, the book PERFECTLY LEGAL proves than unless you're making over 500 K per year the Bush tax cuts actually hurt you. It's basically just borrowing too against the next decade and generation. Because Bush hasn't cut spending, he's increased it wildly. cutting taxes only works if the government is frugal. If it spends more and cuts taxes, particularly on the rich, it digs en enormous hole which devalues the dollar and takes a decade of future tax hikes to pay back. That's why GHW Bush and Clinton both had to raise taxes after Reagan, to pay off his debt, which is small compared to Bush's humongous one. 13 trillion in total, economists say.

Also when I was growing up paying taxes was a moral patriotic thing to do. Since when it is pro-American or even intelligent to avoid paying taxes and stick someone else with the bill or have to pay it later with interest? You think the US government ought to be a big huge VISA card? Your economic ideas are not only wrong they're exactly why we've just begun a 5 year recession which will wipe out 25% of the middleclass.
