Tax cuts work. Democrats don't want you to believe it. They want you to think that to pay for their pie in the sky things, they need to raise taxes. John Edwards' ideas will cost this country 1 TRILLION dollars. To put that in perspective, the Iraq war has cost this country $450 billion so far. In other words, you could have fought Iraq TWICE and still have $100 billion left over.
We have record revenue and it's during Bush's tax cuts. The Federal government took in $1.5 TRILLION dollars in April. So tell me, if they roll back taxes, do you think that the Federal government will take in that much money? John Edwards wants to hike capital gains taxes. Those are taxes on profits you make when you invest your money. If you have a higher tax rate, you're less likely to invest your money. That hurts everyone as lack of investor funds trickles down to the lowest level of our economy.
John Edwards wants to GIVE AWAY $3 billion dollars to the poor in $500 work bonds to help the poor. I had to work for my money and education, so if it's good enough for me, it's good enough for them. I grew up DIRT poor and made a life for myself because I wasn't lazy. You want to be lazy, fine. But don't expect a handout from me. I'll gladly give a hand up to anyone who wants to help themselves and their families.
John Edwards wants to spend $3 BILLION to give an education to every child on the planet. Since when was THAT our responsibility??
The bottom line is that tax cuts work, fiscal responsibility needs to happen, and Democrat's aren't responsible enough to do that. Yes, Republicans have gotten out of hand in terms of spending, and that needs to change, but would you want a guy who wants to take your tax dollars and educate children around the world when we have a crappy public school system here in America?
