Can we all get a round of applause for Bush's tax cuts in 03 over here? Definately helped me out a lot as?

Question

a middle class citizen, Glad to see he put a little more of the tax load on the rich. Have you noticed that taxes actually inspire less wealth? Like in Nevada where the taxes are non existent and the money keeps poaring in, we should take example from this and lower taxes all around, its better for the economy too.

But back to the topic lets all thank Bush real quick for cuttnig taxes. Something the democrats despise.

@ Infobro

Lol I kinda want to rally all republicans to vote for Hillary so we can prove just how BAD it COULD be in the U.S., but I dont think we would be able to stabilize afterwards.

.

"what you forget to mention is that bush never vetoed a spending bill or even talked about vetoeing one because of pork until the dems came into power."

Umm... Bush did this in 03.... Dems came into power in the 06 November elections.

Lol, you tottally suck at life.

"Yeah, the wealth of the upper-class just exists for the government to siphon off into its useless spending projects, right?

I mean, it's not THEIR wealth, it's "society's," and so we're all entitled to get a little piece of their estate, right?"


No actually I don't agree with income re-distribution which is why I dont vote liberals, however the liberals think that Bush is only for the rich and I was illustrating how he actually helps the midddle class regardless of what you libs think.

"Too bad the dollar has lost nearly half it's value. "


Well actually 30%, this number goes up and town all the time but basicly this is why we need to sacure the oil in the middle east, we must make sur eti is sold in dollars ebcause fi Iran gets ahold of it and starts selling it in Euros than demand for the dollar will go down and that means the US dollar will be worth pennies to the dollar bythe end of the day.

Geeze,hmm, maybe exxon is actually helping us.

Answer 1

You didn't mention how you spent your extra $20

Answer 2

Has made more each of the last 3 years, paid more into Fed and State taxes, and received back less in tax refunds each of the last 3 years. The tax cuts have had zero benefit to me. It been pretty well established that Bush tax cuts benefit only the top 15% of income earners. Add to that the huge, and growing, national deficit he's been responsible for and I'd say he deserve a swift kick in the butt, not applause.

Answer 3

No applause. I looked right into the mouth of the beast for the numbers. Do the math. If they say they are cutting the tax on the middle class to the tune of 700 billion...big number until you divide it by the number of people in the middle class if it's about 200 bucks, but you are paying interest on the public debt, you are losing ground. The death tax eliminates tax on people who I (not having millions laying around) say are rich. Why do you think they call it the Paris Hilton Tax. Paris gets her dough, uses her dough to make more dough, has kid and dies, and kid gets dough for nothing. Rich got tons of money to dump in stock market. money makes money, but they don't think they should have to pay tax on that.

We are in expensive wars, but handing out tax cuts. Shame on all who profit from this war, and praise the sacrifice, as long as it comes due to someone else.

There is nothing conservative about letting spending run out of control, taking out a charge card, handing it to the Communist Chinese and saying "charge it" That's why your taxes were reduced by $200.00. So who is going to pay the bill? Santa Claus? No. you will pay.

Conservative Republicans believe in the trickle down theory, but haven't heard that term since Regan. """theory""" is: cut taxes on the rich, and you get more jobs. Maybe. The lobster farmer has to get more lobster, the maid has more sheets to wash. The Africans have to mine those diamonds a bit faster. If trickle down is so great, then why are wages stagnant, and why is concentration of this country's wealth collecting in the top 1% of the US population. Why did stock market do so well, but foreclosures go way up? What is missing in this equation?

Answer 5

Wow. The tax cuts went to the rich. If you think you are doing better it is because our economy is spending money it does not have.

Answer 6

Congratulations on the tax cut for the wealthiest Americans. Your kids and grandkids will pay for the debt which financed the taxcut. It's held by Saudi Arabia, Japan and Communist China.

Answer 7

thanks for reciting that four year old talking point.

what you forget to mention is that bush never vetoed a spending bill or even talked about vetoeing one because of pork until the dems came into power.

bush is all about party and not so much about nation...

i can add onto comments as well...

bush has never even considered vetoeing one of the pork laden spending bills that the republicans laid in front of him that expanded spending across the entire govt once.

bush has never vetoed or even questioned a spending bill.

the truth is that bush is a radical who prefers that people replace good ole american common sense with fear.

i'm not afraid of bush, but i'll never vote republican ever again and something tells me that i'm not alone on that.

oh, and unlike you, i'll skip any of the obvious personal insults that i could toss your way, as i actually sort of pity you.

thank god that americans have started to see bush and followers like you - who prefer talking points to any common sense or the old fashioned truth - for what you really are.

not tough.

not fiscally responsible.

not capable of running this great nation...

Answer 8

i am a middle class citizen some day to be upper class and i love the idea of tax cuts but don't put it all on the rich. THE RICH MAKE JOBS!!!

Answer 9

"On page 301, the Joint Committee projects that the President's proposed standard deduction for health insurance, coupled with repeal of the exclusion for employer-paid health insurance, self-employed health insurance deduction, and itemized medical deductions, would result in a $333 billion tax increase over 10 years."

Sounds more like the administration hates the taxpayers..

Answer 10

Too bad the dollar has lost nearly half it's value.
