If you miss the way America used to be....
Then tax millionaires, support unions, and buy American!

This is my simple response to all the conservatives I know who claim this country is going into the shitter while they support the very policies putting us there.

3. That's what Bush did.
He inherited a surplus then blew it on his rich buddies.

5. Why was having a surplus a "bad" thing? Why wasn't it a "good" thing to keep paying down the Debt?

6. It *was* a good thing until Bush came along.
It didn't him long to spend it all and more.
