Clinton Joins McCain on Gas-Tax Holiday; Obama Opposes
We're in the middle of a 3 trillion dollar war. That's $3,000,000,000,000 ... Now is not the time to be cutting any taxes at all, it's just plain fiscal irresponsibility. Besides, this is simply a game. Taxes will be cut on gas over the summer, only to be raised on something else... or worse, more money will be borrowed. The money WILL be collected regardless of how much McCain panders to people trying to get something for nothing... i.e. Republicans that want a 3 trillion dollar war and less taxes. How about McCain be a REAL Republican and insist that the government stop subsidizing oil? McCain is nothing but another corporate welfare moron.
I didn't vote for Bush, and he's got the worst approval rate since polling was invented, but we're all in this together. We can't keep pulling out the credit card and borrowing more money than we already do currently.
Name me one other time in history when we cut taxes during a war. The concept is insane. In fact, the income tax was started BECAUSE of war: the Civil War. The federal government attempted to start the income tax earlier but was defeated... during the War of 1812.
