Uh, $200,000 is middle class, Tuc??

Yep.

I guess you earn around $40,000 per year and think of yourself as rich.

Oh well - as long as you are content.

Bush has degrees from Harvard and Yale, yourself?

BTW - ever wonder how Bush got into Yale/Harvard?

....Why don't the GOPers use this more...

Because they are patient and have waited till the last days before the election to plant the seed, see the first growth and the Jack in the Beanstalk super growth in the final days before election.

They want Jack to spend some time looking at the vine before finding an ax to hack with. He can only hack, he can't chop it down.

Methinks GWB cut his economic classes (if he had any) while in college

Me thinks you were so busy being indoctrinated you failed to be educated.

GWB has an MBA and is a superb businessman. He is not a Rat Union thug whose training only includes how to lead a riot against wage payers.

BTW - the ONLY hope to turning this economy around is either significant war, ending immigration or rescinding the tax cut and giving a SIGNIFICANT tax cut to the middle class ($30,000 - $200,000).

You're close. But let's make that a tax cut for everybody. Rich and poor...and the middle class.

In other words, exactly what "the Bush tax cut" was to start with. Let's accelerate it. And make it permanent.

We're in an economic flop? The president keeps telling us the economy is fine.

Just out of curiosity, did you make up that particular criterion yourself, or did you see it somewhere? Who/what defines having a household income between 30 and 200 grand as middle class?

". . . giving a SIGNIFICANT tax cut to the middle class ($30,000 - $200,000)."

That's your opinion, not a fact, so defend it!

the sad fact is, if I am single and make $38,000 , I AM one of the "rich"...democrats are all for the "middle class" as long as the middle class is at poverty level.

The economy is a disaster waiting to happen. No "if's" but "when". IMO in the next 3 - 4 months max most likely within 2 months.

From Tuco's FR profile page, he gives the ultimate description of himself:

I am the most conservative member in the Free Republic. Tuco Benedito Pacifico Juan Maria Ramirez. - aka "The Rat"

See - he even calls himself a RAT. Just as we thought. (Although a Mexican living in Munich sounds like an odd candidate to be "the most conservative member of Free Republic". To me that's like Saddam saying he's the Pope.)

Medicare goes cash flow negative in 2008... Social Security goes cash flow negative in 2012 (just in time for the Boomers).

We have gone from the world's largest creditor nation to the world's largest debtor nation in less than a generation.

The Federal Reserve prints money at its convenience, and the currency is linked to nothing (therefore it is a promissory note secured by the full faith, etc., that means us).

Government continues to grow and continues to drain the resources of the private sector.

The one year "surplus" has in reality become a huge multi-year deficit (don't care why, folks, that's just the truth).

There are in excess of 12 trillion in unfunded future entitlements out there.

And now we're going to throw up to 200 billion (and when did those figures ever come in low) at a middle east war.

Now suppose that one of the unintended consequences of that war (and there are ALWAYS unintended consequences) is that oil goes to ... mmmm... $60 a barrel.

Yep, the economy is sure in good shape.

My tax-cut proposal benefits the wealthy also since it significantly reduces taxes for all income earned in the 30k - 200k range.

Middle class is open to one's own interpretation, there is no one definition.

Boy, I'll bet all those eggheads who got their degrees in economics will be happy to hear that.

Who ever said I live in Munich?

BTW - I am aka "the Rat" not a DemoRAT.
