My taxes have went up, my health care premium has went up, and the deductible has went up.

I haven't figured out who this 95% is.....

>Yeah, that's really smart. Cutting the funding of an entitlement program that already has financial problems is brilliant and has little or nothing to do with stimulating job creation.

I didn't say I agreed with it. But you say he's not known for tax cuts and he made a HUGE one.

And yes, it does stimulate jobs. There are plenty of well-established statistics that show that. Just not as much as other methods. But in order to try to please the mouth-breathers in the Republican Party, he had to have some tax cuts in there, and in order to please Democrats, they had to somehow be on the working and middle classes.

IMO, he shouldn't have cut taxes at all. Still it's wrong to say he didn't cut taxes.
