From the article:

"The White House believes the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 helped avoid a depression and end a recession, saving or creating about 3 million jobs so far.

Good points. I should be more wary of these serpents in suits...

"Tax cuts" - another stealth/phony liberal/"progressive" scheme. "Tax breaks" - for all I know, probably another term these snakes use that doesn't really amount to tax cuts.

Amended comment: GOP, I hope you're listening. After 2010, you better

- CUT TAXES...BY A LOT, and

- REPEAL CommieCare

Nice to get a polite and humble response, Thank you. My call is 9% flat tax rate for all, everyone gets a tax cut, and the whining will be progressive bull. Outlaw double digit taxation. Until then, Congress should impose on themselves, their highest rate on any American entity, no deduction.

Much more to be done, but a 9% or 10% flat tax (I prefer sales tax to income tax (including abolishing the IRS)) would, I believe, launch an even greater era of prosperity than that launched by Reagan.

I’m with you on the sales tax, though I think when Republicans calling it the “Fair Tax” it was a mistake, for that makes it too easy Democrats to demonize. They should have stuck with calling it what it is, a sales tax. Leave the double talk to Democrats.

You're right. Another way to put it...

Government creates poverty.

Government never creates wealth.

Free-market capitalism creates wealth.

This “PLAN” is only going to benefit the UNIONS!

No small business is going to be able to afford the bonding capacity necessary to do the kind of major work Obama is talking about.

And if a small business does bid on a job and by some miracle gets it you can be assured the UNIONS are going to be on his A** from the get-go like the Tuck pointer mason in St. Louis who call on Rush's show a couple of weeks ago!

HOW STUPID DOES OBAMA THINK WE ARE???????????????? ALL THOSE FOLKS IN MILWAUKEE WERE SHIPPED IN BY THE UNIONS!
