The Bush tax cuts DID NOT! create a better economy in the USA.
In fact it created a true collapse of our economy which required what some call unAmerican bail outs to save US from a second Great Depression.
these are facts. Cutting taxes has always created big bubbles in this country's economy.
GOP's say they want less spending by Govt, but when you ask them what to cut they are dumbfounded.
You want to live in third world country? Keep this up. We are headed there about as fast as we can go. Cut civil service paychecks? The civil servants that you call when you get in trouble will get there when they can take time off their real job.
The GOP's are speaking with forked tongues and Obama is allowing them to.

"Why shouldn't people be able to keep their own money"
some people claim taxes take thier money from them?
LOL... more VooDoo... take your so-called "money" out of your wallet and read what it says.
you may not like it, but it's just a peice of paper and guess what? it's tender not money... Somebody waves their chicken leg-bone complete with bloody feather over the incense and then wafts the fumes to the papers et voila ici, it's "money". worse yet? you use more electronic messages now than you do paper to trade with other people. The Govt is what makes that paper and those elctronic signals worht ANYTHING. You want real money? Gold and silver are it. You own them and an you don't need the Govt to tell everybody what they are worth.
The most important reason we agree to all of this VooDoo is becuase using this system we have created the most successful (even with all of it's faults) economic system in the world ever. So, we have to pay for this convenience. Because it's hard to run with the weight of gold......(RIP Jerry)
Think of it like this, you have to either pay rent, or mortgage or you can buy your house cash. Gold and silver requires a fort (right?) The Govt (or more correctly the The Fed Reserve, which is actually private) doesn't even ALLOW you to actually own your house (the country). You can at least own real gold and silver today but you still need to be protected from the rest of the world, so we pay our taxes, and pretty soon? our debt will increase past our annual GDP, because we don't pay ENOUGH taxes.
It's plain and simple, and all the VooDoo in the world won't change it. In a free world YOU take what you want and PAY for it. Pay today and tomorrow will be just fine. Tomorrow will not be fine if you take take what you want today and do not pay today.
