What if George Bush ran for office, stating that if he gets elected he would impose a 300% tax on gas - would anyone have voted him in? Of course not, but because it wasn't a "tax" he can say that taxes remain low.

If you calculate the rise of inflation under Bush, the drop in value of the US dollar under Bush, the higher costs of everyday shit, like milk and heat under Bush, etc, etc. it is the lower and middle class that are getting royally fucked!

Assuming it now costs an extra $100 to $200 per week, per person, to exist here in the US than it did before Bush, then who is hit hardest by these changes? Are the rich effected by these cost of living increases? Of course not - it is the lower and middle class!

If Bush promised you that your cost of living would go up, while your quality of life would decrease, would you have voted him in? Think about the big picture.

But thank God he didn't raise your taxes! What a joke!

Wake up!
