"The nonpartisan Congressional Research Service concluded in 2010 that “by almost any economic indicator, the economy performed better in the period before the [Bush] tax cuts than after the tax cuts were enacted. .?.?. GDP growth, median real household income growth, weekly hours worked, the employment-population ratio, personal savings, and business investment growth were all lower in the period after the tax cuts were enacted.” The years 2000 to 2007 were the period of the weakest job growth in the United States since the Great Depression."

wow the warmest it's been in 70 years on a planet 5 BILLION years old, run for the hills.

Did you know there's no trend in temperatures in TX over the past century?

Which doesn't mean it doesn't get hot there.



    National Climatic Data Center records of the temperatures across TEXAS show no significant TREND (straight line) from January 1895 to December 2011.
