I agree.

And, I was for the Bush tax cuts because at the time we were entering into a relatively small recession caused by the collapse of the dot com companies, Enron, etc. All of that was due to deregulation. In other words, a dot com stock would go public and reach $200 a share on speculation - it was speculation because the company's earnings (if any) could in no way support that price in the conventional price models. People were riding the wave and it crashed hard. But, we could afford to quell that crisis with rebate checks and tax cuts, which , again provided a spark to light the economy. Sadly, W and McCain then went hell bent and leather bound into Iraq based on a lie and we are still paying for it. We did not need to go into Iraq and we could not really pay for it at that time, much less now. Now, McCain wants to keep up that insane spending and if anyone dares to talk against it by mentioning that maybe it's time for Iraq to spend its billions taking care of itself, they are "raising the white flag of surrender" wink wink.

Now, let's see how many hard working Americans we can fu*k over by deregulating the health care industry, because history demonstrates less government oversight always helps the common man

I mean please
