Cards On The Table

I'm gonna lay it all right out here:

After all that's been said and done, all the things they've inflicted on America, the American people, and the world, anyone who supports the Bush "Administration" falls into one of these categories:
  1. Stupid
  2. Delusional
  3. Corrupt

I would lose the current minimum wage job that I have. The fellow was only able to expand his hiring because of the Bush tax-cuts, which Kerry has said he will repeal.

Actually, unless your boss is quite wealthy, it is unlikely that his tax-cuts would be repealed under Kerry.

He is quite rich and the business is a sole proprietorship, the tax cuts are the very reason he hired me.

As I do have a degree in economics, he now and then has me look over things and pays a consultant's fee. I can't really say much beyond that, as it is a private company other than I'm pretty sure he's speaking the truth unless he's cooking the books outside my knowledge.

If the tax-cuts go away, it's much more economical for him to just lock his money away from the into his overseas investments.

So he got a big tax break and used it to create a bunch of shitty jobs below a living wage with no health care.

Yeah, that sounds like what Bush intended.

You really don't see how much you're getting assraped, do you?
