[QUOTE="BoltNut, post: 56115383, member: 262230"] Tax cuts for middle income earners was part of the Stimulus plan, very true. If Obama had done that and left things like the health care plan alone, he'd have most likely gotten more "atta-boys" for it. Instead, spending increased and drove the debt up further and further. Any economic "benefit" that could have come from the tax cuts, was eaten up with all the continued spending. What Bush did was no better and I'd be one of the first to agree with that. Just because a Republican did it, doesn't mean anything. Spending is still spending and both did too much of it. He would have been better off to just extend the Bush tax cuts and been done with it. He wanted to let those expire and install his own "version" of tax cuts. If the Bush tax cuts would have expired as Obama wanted, what tax cut would the average tax payer have realized overall? Not a whole heck of a lot. Smoke and mirrors. [/QUOTE]
