this is why i said i didn't want to see a tax cut-it's not enough to affect any one persons day to day existence, but it sure can add to the debt that will affect future investment in this country.

The thought that tax cuts will lead to future deficits is the same thinking that racetrack execs make when raising takeout. You may want to reconsider that theory. I do think it is ironic that the liberals here (not you) who are so opposed to tax cuts are also so opposed to raising takeout though in effect that produces the same results as eliminating tax cuts or raising taxes.

i don't know if it leads to a larger deficit or not-i'm no economist. but i do know that deficit spending is not the way to go, and i would gladly give up 10$ a week rather than have the budget go even more out of whack than it already is. it won't make me spend more money-which is what a stimulus is supposed to do. i think it's a real waste to have congress work their butts off(hehe) if that's all i can get out of it. i'd be better off cutting my hbo/stars/cinemax/showtime channels each month from dish!

so all this money is going to a bunch of unproductive parasite people/ bureaucracies and to pacify the tax payer they don't steal $10 more a week.

Heard high-pitch Hannity say that it's now the 'Obama recession' on his radio show this afternoon. LOL ... uh, nice try Sean, but your boys George and Dick ... who you sooooooo enthusiastically supported back in 2000 ... are still the primary owners of this mess.



Just hilarious watching the pubs scramble around now. Bush literally brought this poor party to it's knees. Probably set them back a dozen years or so...

Never too late to hop on that Trojan bandwagon, GBBob.

[hi_im_god]

getting back to the original subject...

inflation? really?

i guess i understand the concept (thanks chuck).

it's a product of a growing economy, right?

i'd love if someone can dig up this post in 3-4 years and throw it in my face. seriously.

i'd like to be wrong.

I'm sure it's a fascinating clip, dellinger63. Too bad I can't access it here.




Oh my, will ya look at that ... about 5 million getting unemployment benefits now.



And the Bush-Cheney economic carnage goes on and on...........

I see Bubba's been taking Bush behind the wood shed in that abcnews.com article.


Yeah, this is what can happen to an economy when you put an overmatched empty suit like Bush in the White House.




Did my best to get Bubba back in the big house so that he could clean up the Bush-Cheney economic carnage.



Good luck Obama ... if you're smart, you'll seek Bubba's sound advice on a regular basis...
