Bush Bite #6 - 19 Sep 2004
The check's in the mail
Your equal share of the 2001-2004 tax breaks was about $3,157. Did you get THAT check? Or did it maybe go to a rich person instead?
38 percent of the benefits of the June 2001 tax cut went to the richest one percent of the taxpayers.
By 2005, three-quarters of all households will receive less than $100 in tax breaks.
Meanwhile, Clinton's projected budget surplus of $5.6 trillion (which included $2.5 trillion for Social Security) is ancient history. Bush's annual $400 billion deficits prove that there's nothing fiscally conservative about conservatives.
