No "Stimulus Package" Needed

Well, not the way the Democrats and most Republicans view it. All we need to do is continue, and maybe augment Bush's tax rate reductions, which have done more in the last few years to stimulate business and increase the "tax take" than any other single factor. But most politicians want to do something that will take money from those who earn it and give it to those who don't, or won't. That's simple socialism, and will never work. All it will do is give more power to the politicians while giving a temporary "lift." Lowering the tax rate is a proven strategy, and has worked every time it has been tried. Try to convince the politicians of that -- including Bush, who authored the latest one. The one that created the latest business boom (which the Democrats hate). The Democrats will always do something that makes the economy worse, criticize the Republicans for it, and then promise to "make it all better" if they get elected. (National Review)
