But that\u2019s not what they\u2019re really interested in. They\u2019re interested in class warfare and getting you to hate the rich. They want you thinking the rich aren?t suffering while everybody else is. They want you thinking the rich are causing all this so that you\u2019ll vote for them. <\/line><BR\/> They claim to want all this money to spend, but they don\u2019t care, they spend it anyway. Ever heard of deficits? They spend money left and right. You ever heard of a budget program going down, ever heard of a Great Society program being reduced, ever heard of a health care program being reduced, genuinely cut? Doesn\u2019t happen. If they have to, they\u2019ll borrow the money to increase spending. Hello deficits. Ain\u2019t causing tax cuts. Tax cuts are what\u2019s causing the economy to come back finally. <\/line><BR\/>Bush\u2019s tax cuts are causing more economic activity, hello, the economy is starting to grow and if it continues to recover like this, we\u2019re going to get rid of this deficit lot sooner than anybody thinks.
