i know, it is just too complicate for people to understand, so just keep lining the pockets of the ultra wealthy and trust the ultra wealthy. ha ha ha! bush was on the news yesterday saying how if taxes go up, the ultra rich won't pay any more taxes because they have accountants to reduce their tax bills and any tax increase would fall on the middle class. so, if his tax cuts didn't actually lower their taxes any more than their accountants could have... why did we have them again? oh, what a web we weave when we first set out to deceive. i understand your "gimme" politics and "gimme" economic policies. just don't tote out total crapola as fact and then cry it can't be disproven when the data sure looks like it disproves your total crapola. be honest and come out and say, "while this can't be proven, i thin republicans help the poor... b/c, well, that's in my self interest to believe that and the republicans believe in self interest. greed is good, baby!" your problem is you try and justify greedy as somehow being good for others. why do you care? it is as though you want to do greedy, self interested things, yet want to be thought of as altruistic. bizarre, really.
