What happens when you repeal tax cuts, raise taxes by 110 billion, increase costs to large businesses, and subsidize small businesses? Anybody heard of inflation? How about employee wages? Will they go up or down while businesses are simultaneously forced to increase employee benefits while paying higher taxes? Let me guess, another minimum wage increase. Why don't we just let Hillary determine how much all businesses can charge for goods, what their profits can be, and how much they have to pay employees? Better yet, why don't we just let China take over our government?

Hey Moderates Unite. I'm with you that taxes will probably have to be raised, but raising them enough to pay off war costs while simultaneously funding a $110 billion dollar government program is insane. What is more insane is thinking that it will only cost $110 billion.

Hillary is out for Hillary and all the power and wealth she can accumulate. She is a spot light hog. She will promise you the moon. Once elected her memory of those promises would fade. She has no solid plan and no one in their right mind would vote for her.

You didnt see the piece on 60 minutes last night with Alan Greenspan did you?
First off, Bush spent away our budgetary surplus, something Greenspan, a devout Republican, couldnt even believe. The across the board tax cuts were wildly reckless and irresponsible. Couple that with massive spending, the likes of which our country has never seen, and you have a recipe for disaster. Bush's prescription drug plan alone could end up bankrupting the government and Bush is just going to leave it up to the next administration to handle (or take the blame for).
You are correct about the minimum wage increase. I just cant figure out what the democrats dont understand about minimun wage and inflation.
However, taxes WILL HAVE TO BE RAISED. Get used to it now because its going to happen and whining about it doesnt get us anywhere. Bush has spent us into danger and the bill is coming due. Where do you think the money will come from?

So you think the president is a dictator and can do all of that. Bush has got that idea and his supporters seem to think the president has such powers. Congress, according to the Constitution makes those kinds of decisions. You've heard of the Constitution haven't you? That is the document George W. Bush called a goddamn piece of paper.
China may just take over our government because we owe them so much in debt due to the borrow and spend policies of the Administration and their supporters. They will call in the debt and we won't be able to pay because we don't have enough money. We will have cut sources of income (taxes) so much that we can't pay the bills. The scare tactics of the far right crack me up. All these threats and nothing is proved to be so. We have had Democrats in power before and the economy boomed and it is under Republicans that we've had our worst years economically.

What and actually read beyond a headline that Hillbill is the popular PRECEDENT? Please, it is not what you know it is who you snow over with enough propaganda to get the ball rolling. I am with you. It is evident it is Hill don't care.
China? Who needs weapons when they poison our pets, kids and food supply? Yet if you research the great alliance between the Clinton's and China it is if they are our greatest ally. Forget the fact they are a communist country? Huh? Does anyone read a whole page of a paper anymore?
Thank you.

I say that we cannot let Hillary take over the government. Particularly on a single issue which was pushed by a Hollywood movie.
Particularly when the last time Hillary put forth universal healthcare it was denied.
Americans have short memories these days.

What do you get with a government that borrows a few trillion dollars then pretends that it's tax cuts are increasing government revenues?
9 trillion dollars of debt.
And every point you try to make has nothing to do withreality.

Repealing those tax cuts is not raising taxes. Guess what Brad.....we are already getting hit with inflation now under the Bush economy. That's why we have the fed to keep inflation low no matter what the government does. Democrat or Republican.

Everyone SHOULD already know that Mrs Bill Clinton is a socialist.
The 'Progressives' do not care, they embrace her as salvation.
Why anyone would want a nanny state is beyond my comprehension.

You are singing a song the democrats will love. They do not even realize that they are pushing us ever closer to socialism. Wait I will get a multitude of thumbs down and you are in for deluge of hateful answers.
