The passing of NAFTA and GATT by both sides of the isle to protect the exporting industry, which comprised about 15% of the GDP, doomed the remaining 85% of our economy. With Mr. and Mrs. America asleep at the wheel, lots-a-luck trying to get your living standards back. Dominick

Undoubtedly, Bush's plan is meant to stimulate the stock market- and also to bring the investor back to buying stocks for the right reasons: To buy companies that make a profit (re: pay dividends). It simplifies the investment process for the layman. (BUY STOCKS THAT PAY YOU BACK). Enjoy the profits tax free. It eliminates the DOUBLE taxation on dividends. What's so wrong with that?? It lowers the tax rates for all. What's so darn wrong with the taxpayer deciding where to spend his money rather than the government?? You'd have to be a socialist to want the goverment to decide where all your income goes, rather than yourself. Of course the wealthy will benefit most. They by far pay the most taxes. That's a tired argument bandied about my left wingers for decades. I do think there should be some benefit to IRA holders worked out. That doesn't seem fair as it is now. Obviously it doesn't solve all the worlds' problems- but it's a start..
