I love the ones who think the tax cut will hurt the economy.  I guess simple elementary economics must not be a requirement in public schools anymore.

A couple of years ago Clinton actually said:

"We could give you a tax cut, but than, how do we know that you spend it right"

You can't be trusted with your own money.

It is amazing isn't it. Considering the democrats voting base doesn't pay the taxes anyway, ie African Americans, minorities & the lower income sectors, it's all an act though. The class envy thing really shocks me.
And whoever says a tax break isn't good for the economy is talking out his arse. They (the dumocrats in D.C.) just don't want to live, spend, within their means. Same old scare tactics..... and the freakin media spews their trash as if it's Gospel.

This is why they need to come up with a form mailed to every eligible American and on the form would be two boxes:

1) I object to a tax break of my own money due to over taxation and wish to contribute it to the National Debt.

2) I do not object to a tax break of my own money and wish for the refund to be sent to me ASAP along with interest accumulated which the Gov't made off my money while it sat in their bank account.

I'll take my $80 and I will not care if you get $8 or $80,000 back from your tax break as long as it's in the pockets of those who EARN it and not a fat arse politician figuring out the latest government program to insure him/her the largest possible voting block..
towd, you really need to work on your self esteem

 If someone makes 50K a year and pays 25% tax rate, in 10 years he makes 500K and pays 125K in taxes and retires.

 If I am making 100K and pay 33% tax rate, and work for 5 years and retire because the job is very hard and involves very high responcibility, and not work for 5 years, then in 10 years I make 500K and pay 165K in taxes? What is fair about that? Anybody gonna refund the money I overpaid?
 Of course you would say that I should not stop working - that is what communism is about - everybody works and the enlightened few decide what to do with the money.

-towd_ you've got to be kidding! You make it sound like every problem we have right now is caused by Bush. He's been in office less than 2 months and hasn't done toejam yet and your spouting crap like the economy problems are all his fault.

Man get over it Bore lost. And get over this crap that you know the Demos will win the next election. No one even knows who's running yet.

What crap would that be? Poor people paid 80 bucks in and get 80 bucks back rich people pay  200k in and get 80k back. Fair?  I'm sure all you see is the total amount and not the percentage that's paid in.

Or should it be the poor pay 80 bucks in and get 80k back?

Why is it fair to punish the rich? Why is it fair to charge the rich more of a % of taxes than everyone else? Because they have more? Puh-leeze! I'm not rich but I think it's very wrong to make someone pay more taxes than the next person.(I'm talking a % not total money)
I have been reborn a new man!

Towd,

Please take part of your tax refund and buy a dictionary. A thesaurus would be nice too.

 Let's see here.  1980  Republican president, Republican Senate and Democrat House.  1982  Republican president, Democrat Congress (until 1994 correct?)  Ok Towd here's how it works.  The Congress makes the bills that the president signs into LAW. Get that? It means that legislation (spending) starts with the CONGRESS not with the president.  A strong leader can set the agenda for congress, which is what Regan did. However, in the end it is congress that writes the bills that the president signs into law.  You can blame the debt on Regan all you want, and he does deserve 1/2 the blame he did sign the budget into law. Realy he only deserves 1/4 of the blame because he did send a lot of bills back to congress because of "pork barrel" spending.  But the other 3/4 of the blame rest squarly on the shoulders of the Congress, which was controlled by Democrats. AND which was freaking going ape toejam over all the new revenue that the tax cuts had generated. BUT the whole blame truely rest with the American People for putting up with that crap in the first place. You see they got/get away with it because both sides did/do it and it was a mutual thing, they washed each others hands so to say. Meanwhile the people get screwed. (this is why I shudder when I hear the word "bi-partisan") But the people deserved it because they let it happen, IMO.

 I know 1 thing.  I need a squealing tax cut, and more than what they're doling out.  The damned government should learn to do with less or without like we have to out here in the real world.   I wouldn't even realy mind paying taxes if they wouldn't waiste the money on all the stupid toejam they waiste it on.  Damn $10 million for studdies on common sensicle stuff that everybody knows by the age of 10, $5000 screws for rockets, over $100 million!!! for just sending Clinton around the globe. There are plenty more examples from both the Republicans and Democrats.

 Sorry but the DEMONcrats in congress, most of them anyway, are nothing more than socialist.  They look at that money as the governments and think we are too dumb to know what to spend it on.  I for one am smart enough to know that I don't want it spent on what they want to spend it on, and I want my damned money back.  They pay NO, zip ZERO money to me in interest if I over pay, but when I under pay their interest and penalties work just like the squealing mafia.  That's not freedom, that's not liberty and it's defenately enterfering with my persute of happiness.  Oh but wait, that makes me an extremist...

 Realy F'ed up Government we live under.

No it does not make you an extremist. It is a fundamental desire of every normal human being to be able to earn income and accumulate the wealth. This is normal, you are normal. It's the commie types, who'd rather steal than earn that are an abberation. They are the extremists.

Unfortunaly, sixty years of liberal brain washing redefined the terms of a social discusion. Tax increases and government spending are referred to as "investments". Tax cuts are referred to as "spending".

"Who is going to pay for a tax cut?" they say. How absurd can you get? Not extorting my income is an "expense" to them.

Up is down and down is up. Curiouser and curiuser as Alice used to say. And half of this population is eating this siht!  

First thing we should do is to destroy the public education. The public schools do not educate anymore, they are indoctrinating.
