Bush gave 850 Billion dollars to big business. This is almost a TRILLION, aint saving anything , is it? It is what you do with that amount that can save this nation. Of the people, by the people and for the people. Is ANYONE getting this message, besides Thomas Jefferson? get real
Bush Sept. 08 "The fundamentals of our economy are sound"
He must have meant for the upper3% However- What we do need to do is change the tax structure!!!
I think we need to go to a flat income tax of 12% A capital gains tax of 15% An import duty of 8% on all imported goods And a National sales tax of 5% on all products
Simplify the stupid Tax system Get rid of all the loopholes
A 15% capital gains would spur business -- Increasing domestic spending and Manufacturing
An Import duty would bring in Trillions To a Gov''t that''s cash starved --
And in the end changing the tax structure would even the playing field.
We need something new that''s for sure Steve Forbes has it right.
stop calling people sheep. you are are sheep yourself. you followed ideologies created by other men (they also had their agendas). if you are an extreme liberal or an extreme conservative- you are about the same.
The President nor the VP add ''earmarks'' - - and the taxing and spending is done by ''bring home the bacon Congress'' dummy ! ! ! ! ! And they have no term limits like the president - they stay in office for life dummy ! ! ! Those elected officials approve a pay raise for themselves, spend your money and raise your taxes - and you blame the President and his relatives ? ? ? And you really think your newly elected savior can end all that - based on his experience and background ? ! ? !
U.S. Debt Approaches Insolvency; Chinese Currency Reserves at Risk by Maurizio d''Orlando
In a few months, America''s public debt has grown to more than 100% of GDP. Fear of a valuation crisis for the dollar, with tremendous consequences for Asian countries, major exporters to the United States.
Milan (AsiaNews) - In the United States, the danger of debt insolvency is growing, putting at risk the currency reserves of foreign countries, China chief among them. According to new figures published by Bloomberg in recent days (Nov. 25, 2008), the American government has employed a total of 8.549 Trillion Dollars to stop the financial crisis. This means a total of about 24-25.4 Trillion Dollars of direct or indirect public debt weighing on American taxpayers.
Actual U.S, Debt is around $60 Trillion, so this story is total bullsh*t. Get ready to see things you never imagined possible. Collapse of Social Safety-Net Programs like Unemployment Insurance and Food Stamps, Massive Tent Cities of Homeless and Destitute Families, Shortages of basic necessities, Food Riots, Martial Law...... It''s going to get really, really, REALLY, bad. Get ready now or be sorry later.....
Well Bush''s last act was to give away almost a trillion dollars to big business, Americas WORST PRESIDENT EVER!!! Us American people? Heh, after Cheney''s ''Haliburten'' oil company at the Iraq oil wells preformance, and fleecing us on the gas prices while he and Bush had the power, heeh, they about decimated the United States of America. Poor Obama has his work set out for him, what a mess they left for that guy.
What Reagan, Bush and the big tax breaks for the rich now we know just how it works for the working people in his country thanks to all you Republicans.
