I like the plan, as far as it goes, but I have to disagree with the President's reasoning.

He wants to tax us less so we will spend and invest the difference and help the economy.

He should tax us less because our taxes are outrageously and immorally high, regardless of whether it helps the economy. The fact that it will is just gravy.

Shalom.

Local reaction to Bush's plan that I have heard includes;

Dividends? All my stocks are worthless, what good is that?

Income tax cuts? Now? My problem is that I can't get a job and have no income. Where were they years ago?

Job training? My problem is I'm overqualified for everything already.

Here, the unemployed are fiftyish homeowners with kids in college. They are basically screwed.

I figure I'll open up a cyanide cool aid stand and clean up.
