the rich aren't getting richer and the poor aren't getting poorer. Bush has given more tax brakes to the poor and middle class and he also added a new free prescription plan for people who can't afford the medicine that they need. bush has done wonderful things to help the poor, which i disagree with i don't think people with money should have to pay for people who don't wont to work or can't cuz they have no education. Bush is the best pres since reagan
who gets the biggest tax breaks? The tax breaks given to the poor arent as large as the ones given to Bush's wealthy friends, which was intentional. Now in order to balance the favors he gave to his friends, Bush has to make major budget cuts to a lot of programs such as: Head Start, the early-childhood education program for the poor; The Women, Infants and Children nutrition program and other programs that Bush has been touting on the campaign trail.

I for one want to see our troops shipped home, they are fighting a war they themselves probably question. What have we done in Iraq? We haven't done anything. But Cheney & Co. have done a few things: Make billions off the reconstruction phase and are preparing it to be a military stage. I am dumbfounded at what other business we (the U.S.) has in Iraq. The 9/11 comission has already discredited any links between Bin Laden and Hussein (bc there werent any to begin with), so what excuse is left?
Again can someone clear up this economy thing for me? Are we talking affluent economy or poor economy??
And ChukiDori's right on the money! Bush is for outsourcing, even though a good chunk of America's working corp is unemployed. If Bush gets elected, the youth of today might find it a tad difficult to find a decent paying job in the U.S. let alone their city!
