I have been listening and reading about what Bush wants to grant our country for taxes, yet I don't understand. We are in debts so much but our country has so much to spare. In Iraq and other country burdens we are and have been hurting for a very long time. There is alot of questions that we all have. The Republicans feel that they are just giving there money away to the Democrats just because they are a minority and lower paying jobs and dont deserve any returns just because of children. Most of low income families will receive more money because of the EIC is that their fault? No. We have some taxes that were voted on and its hard to understand why the money isn't going there. Like property taxs and school funds. This is crazy. Not to mention gas prices will reach $4.00 or more by the summer. This country has so much but is so selfish within ourselves till it's sad. They say not to spend the money. Hello! That's because we will have to pay it all back next year. Watch and see. I would love to hear what you have to say about this subject................

I really need mine to pay off a bill. It could hurt alot of people if they do not spend it wisely. They are trying to vote four our state to do away with property taxes and I sure hope it goes through because we supposedly live in the poorest county in Indiana, yet we have the highest taxes. Gas prices are rediculous. You cannot hardly even afford to take the family for a Sunday drive anymore. This country does not treat all Americans fairly or we would not have hungry people or homelsss. We would all have jobs and a home and food in our belly every day. We will definitely be taxed on that money they give us for sure. They will get their money back anyway because every time they give out raises, bonuses, credits, etc. everything else shoots up in price and we have to pay more than usual to live. Stamps are going up again for instance and the gas prices are going to skyrocket worse.

The way debt for a country works is that we are not in debt if our GDP grows more than the speed of the debt grows. Countries have trade deficits not debts.
The democrats don't have that great of a economic policies either, they tax the rich give health care to the poor crowd.
