Mr. Moore had better re-check the national debt...

Moreover, the federal government is now $150 billion in debt. There is no revenue available to "share."

The actual figure is in the trillions. Growth is the only way to pay it down. Stimulating the economy is a fine idea. I'm always for tax cutting. Now if we could go the whole hog and cut some federal regulations, agencies, and other pork we might actually regain a bit of Freedom.

You're right, and that's normally what all the conservative economic commentators would also say, except they are all in cheerleading mode right now. Either Karl Rove has threatened them with exile, or they realize this is the best they are going to get from an administration that has a rather warped, elitist view of how our economy works.
