Let me keep my $$, and give it to them directly, instead of giving it to the large black hole we call Government, and hope that 1 or 2 cents on the dollar makes it back out. Mr. Banana, I trust you to do the right thing but I dont trust the rest of the crowd. That's why gov't is there. I agree that we should control their excesses but in this case, the surplus and the resulting reduction of the national debt permits capital to be invested in the private sector yielding productivity yielding the current boom that even greenspan is having trouble controlling. And it is largely a non-inflationary event to boot. So "W" comes along with a Reagan tax cut in a period of boom--its as irresponsible as allowing tax and spend liberals to spend it all away. First things first, target the folks who are having trouble making ends meet, the young married couple and have social programs that allow the eldery to have prescription drugs at reasonable prices and have all children insured. Republicans should be addressing these issues too.
