Republicans proposed “Tax Cuts and more De-regulation" again
As their proposals to the Bailout plan?

Just heard it on CNN – can anyone find me any official documents showing this. I swear people are not going to believe it

My God when are going to finally put the “Myth” of Reagenomics and “Trickle Down Theory” to rest – once and for all.

If the S&L Bail Out of the 1980s, Enron Fleecing investors and Utility Rate Payers of 100s of $Billions of dollars, and finally the “Wall St Melt-Down of 2008”, does not serve as a Gospel like Eulogy of the Failed policies of Reagenomics and the Trickle Down Theory – I don’t know what does

3. The "Tax Relief" claus is the same line of BS they use in every bill
Edited on Thu Sep-25-08 10:19 PM by FreakinDJ
the republicans propose

Swear to God - the wording has not changed 1 word

But my question is this - If the US government ends up insuring all the mortgages, does this not gaurantee the US Government ends up paying should any thing happen to the economy - say like a HUGE depression

9. I don't have a clue..
I do not understand the market at all. It kind of reminds me of when Sarah Palin was dropped on us like a bomb. It took me days to try and make sense, and in the end the sense it made made no sense.

4. Incredible
This should be Obama's first and last statement at the debate tomorrow: "John, is THIS what you call "saving the economy"?"

6. I like the line about executives
... how they shouldn't benefit through from dollars.

However, it says nothing how they shouldn't benefit from INSURANCE dollars, which is what they are ultimately proposing.

8. Wait, so they admitted that de-regulation has failed us all and they want more?
Edited on Thu Sep-25-08 10:52 PM by EOO
That's like Wiley Coyote continuing to buy failing ACME products to catch the road runner. How fucking stupid can they get? Holy shit.

10. When did they admit "De-regulation" failed
As far as I can see they are still staunch supporters of MORE De-regulation.

I wish the Dems would Frame the Debate as a Failure of Deregulation and Trickle Down Economics

I think this is the second Republican proposition calling for additional deregulation. Bush's original bill was the first
