Bush has cut programs for the middle class and poor. What programs did Bush cut? Taking money from the poor.. Cutting taxes on the poor is not taking money from them. I'll be specific: Doubling the per child tax credit was good for the poor and middle class. Do you have a problem with that? Making more people eligible for the earned income tax credit, which the Bush tax cuts did by raising the level where they are phased out, is good for the middle class. Do you have a problem with this? Taxes are an issue that is easily demagogued. The fact is taxes were cut for everyone. The wealthy pay more income taxes than anyone else so a tax cut will of course benefit the wealthy.
