http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,317998,00.html For working families: We cut middle class taxes; raised the minimum wage for the first time in ten years; helped families avoid foreclosure on their homes; made college more affordable for millions of students; and passed historic new energy legislation to lower gas prices, raise fuel economy standards on cars and trucks for the first time in 32 years, and begin to stem the tide of global warming.
1) What middle class tax cuts?
2) Why was there a need to help families avoid foreclosure on their homes? Why is this the government's job? What has recently changed that caused all these foreclosures?
3) Raised fuel economy standards? Don't you think that the auto manufactures would be making vehicles with higher fuel economy if they could (while still making a relatively safe vehicle)? So what will happen? We'll start to see lighter, unsafer cars OR the same as we have now but at a much higher price.
4) What is being used to quantify that the tide of global warming is being "stemmed"?
