Let's dissect this steaming pile that you dumped here...He could have created millions of jobs by directly hiring people Government "make work" jobs never have, and never will, contribute to economic growth. And before you spout about FDR and his New Deal, here's a link where you can begin to educate yourself:cato.org but just gives it to the richest How many G** D*** times must it be repeated?? Cutting taxes allows people to keep more of what is rightfully theirs in the first place. It is not "giving to the rich". Are you leftists being disingenuous or just plain stupid when you keep repeating this sort of crap?it will trickle down someday Using "trickle down" as some sort of smarmy code word for capitalism can't hide the fact that free people trading in free markets have created all the wealth that you and your fellow statists are so prone to want to confiscate and redistribute.Problem is most of the big corps are moving the jobs overseas. And Bush hasn't done a damn thing about it. What do you want him to do, nitwit?? Nationalize corporate America? Business in this country has been laboring under tremendous tax and regulatory burdens for quite some time. If you were truly concerned about jobs departing for greener pastures, you'd be advocating the creation of a more business friendly environment here in this country.He has the power but he won't do anything for the working class. You simply don't have a clue, do you? Spouting tired old class warfare slogans accomplishes exactly zilch. It's business, which you and your fellow lefties never get tired of bashing, that creates the jobs that have given your "working class" the highest standard of living in the history of the world.he cares only about the executive investor class Do you know anything about capital formation and financial markets and the role they play in economic development? If you did, you wouldn't be blabbing such idiocy.the plunderers of the natural environment. Without the products such "plunderers" provide, you'd be riding a horse (if you were lucky) and sleeping in a cave on a bearskin rug. It's truly amazing that in this day and age of wealth and prosperity, there remains so many with the mentality and awareness of barefoot savages...
