Perpetually Stupid
According to the Associated Press report on the Shrubbery’s latest radio address: Bush proposes tax changes to address health care costs. In the State of the Union address he intends to request tax deductions for medical insurance premiums of $7,500 for individuals and $15,000 for families.
This does absolutely nothing about the cost of health care, and if the tens of millions of Americans without health care could afford to take these deductions, i.e. if they actually made enough money to pay income taxes on sums this large, they could probably afford health insurance, unless, of course, they were sick, and then it isn’t available at any price.
Tax cuts and killing people are the only solutions the kindergarten class in the White House have.

Yup, how many poor people can afford insurance premiums of the amounts indicated. None that I know…He’s not about helping poor, though. He wants to help the rich because they slip money to those political campaigns.
Exactly right, OWL, all of their “solutions” are designed for the wealthy.
Extra taxes on the people that work, and fewer on those who live on unearned income from family trusts — that’s the Bush Way, all right.
I guess people have to be punished for not being “smart enough” to be born to wealthy parents.
