Don't make the mistake of thinking a tax cut makes you better off if all it does is increase your debts. At the end of the day any over spending now will have to be paid for by you not the party "giving" the tax "Cuts".

BTW if you want to know what the US Govt spends taxpayers money on donââ‚Âà ‚¬ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¾Ã‚¢t look at the budget if you want honest answers, as they discovered many years ago how to hide spending by diverting funds between departments to hide unpopular spending.

I do not object to paying taxes. That money is reasonably spent (i.e. war in Iraq).

However, Clinton stole money from the taxpayers by charging excessive taxes. Bush recinded that, and gave it back to the people.

And I already montioned that I dislike how much Bush is spending, but what I do see is more money in every American family's pocket.

Yes Clinton stole it all and secretly hoarded it the federal surplus, but the courageous Bush found the hiding place turning the largest surplus into the world's largest defecit and there was much bankers rejoicing throughout the land.

Simple question for you Jerrek.

Who will end up paying back the deficit eventually?

Mr Bush?

The fat cats who gained contracts after having funded his election?

Or just possibly the US Taxpayers?

Economics 101 time I'm afraid. :rofl:
