Tell the GOP Their Plans are Unacceptable

 Let's review what the George W. Bush Presidency with Republican Congress (6 of 8 years) did for America from 2000 - 2008:

  • Cut taxes to starve (GOP Perceived Big) government.
  • Deregulate to bring unfettered free market principles back to business
  • Create Government Budgets which do not account for all government spending (GOP never budgeted for off balance sheet expenditures like Middle East Wars) widening deficits.
  • Create larger and larger government deficits with full knowledge our citizens were aging and therefore would be cashing in on the insurance programs the people paid for during their entire working life. (GOP failing to properly budget for and fund for an entire decade)
  • Allow corporations to damage the environment and our financial system then prevent subpoena power to congressional oversight committees entrusted by our constitution to protect the people from such acts.
  • Now, today call for further tax cuts and tax cut extensions due to the depressed economy brought upon the nation by the very same policies they call to action today.


In short the activities which caused our problem today were imprudent tax cuts when our government officials ought to have been planning to secure the benefits citizens paid for their entire working life rather than offering corporate socialism and fighting unpaid for wars should now be corrected by offering more tax cuts and the sacrifice of benefits by citizens whom have already paid for the benefits of the insurance plans for their entire working life.

MEDICARE Premiums Paid for Service to Be Rendered at retirement.

  • 30 year old paid insurance premiums for at least 10 years
  • 35 year old paid insurance premiums for at least 15 years
  • 40 year old paid insurance premiums for at least 20 years
  • 45 year old paid insurance premiums for at least 25 years
  • 50 year old paid insurance premiums for at least 30 years
  • 55 year old paid insurance premiums for at least 35 years
  • 60 year old paid insurance premiums for at least 40 years
  • 65 year old paid insurance premiums for at least 45 years


The George W. Bush temporary tax cuts have been in place over 10 years and business had so much certainty we created a depression, we created no jobs, we lost great value in the dollar, our standard of living for the Average American dropped, some of us went bankrupt, lost our house and our savings.


Tell your elected official the Republican Parties solution for our countries economic problems are unacceptable to you as a citizen of the United States of America.

  1. This is silly. The problem isn't "not enough taxes." The problem is too much spending. You'll never tax the nation into prosperity.

  2. I don't get your point.

    There is no talk of taxing to prosperity in this post?

    I agree these GOP policies were and are silly.

    The statements of fact made in this post are exactly what happened in the eight years of George W. Bush with GOP congressional control at the start of 6 of 8 of those congresses.

  3. If we go back to the Clinton years, no millionaire went bankrupt paying more taxes, we can't keep relying on the trickle down effect. Angela, get a grip, 2 wars, Medicare D, well I said my piece. The thing is, why is health care an entitlement? I still believe it's a right of every citizen.
