“Republicans favor tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations, but these had no stimulative effect during the George W. Bush administration, and there is no reason to believe that more of them will have any today. As for the idea that cutting regulations will lead to significant job growth, it's just nonsense. It's just made up.” BelieveMadeIdeasReasonTodayJobsGrowthCuttingEffectsRepublicanTaxesFavorsSignificantAdministrationCorporationsNonsenseNo ReasonWealthyRegulationTax CutsJob Growth Author:Bruce Bartlett

“It's obvious that a lot of Tea Party members tend to be elderly. You've seen that famous sign, 'Tell the government to keep its hands off my Medicare.' And I think as long as the government does keep its hands off their Medicare, they're fine with talking about low taxes. But once they start to realize that the Republicans really do want to not just cut Medicare, but essentially abolish it, you know, I just think those people are not going to be part of the Tea Party. They're going to be over with Occupy Wall Street.” PeopleThinkingKnowsWantLongDoeHandsGovernmentRealizingPartyTalkingCuttingStreetsWallFineRepublicanTaxesMembersLowsObviousTeaElderlyMedicareAbolishTea PartyOccupy Wall Street Author:Bruce Bartlett
