Tax cuts didn't initially cause a problem fiscally, but he never rethought his economic policy after he started going to war. What was supposed to be stimulating the economy became a giant earmark. <br /><br />Your analogy more closely describesconservative generationhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10614578478747561732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8571885563565623577.post-32138998304205265822009-07-01T16:10:21.340-04:002009-07-01T16:10:21.340-04:00I hope everybody understands that my "ghetto&...I hope everybody understands that my "ghetto" inflation post was a joke.

A tax cut without a spending cut is a credit card. Bush successfully cut taxes which put off economic collapse, but the congressional spending spree negated the Bush tax cuts. Then Bush let Cheney take his veto pen hunting so Bush never vetoed a single pork laden bill till 2006. <br /><br />Here's a "ghetto" explanation of inflation.Andrew33https://www.blogger.com/profile/12727106195950368976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8571885563565623577.post-5174065896813777152009-07-01T06:26:35.034-04:002009-07-01T06:26:35.034-04:00I'll start off with what I agree with.

The war was expensive and the most important thing, Bush never stopped or rethought his economic policies when we realized, "hey we may be in this for the long haul, how are we going to pay for it!" The war is a big part of Bush's role in today's debt.

As I've pointed out before, raising taxes never solves budget problems, because politicians always spend more than they take in, no matter how much they take in.
