1. Signed two income tax cuts, one of which was the largest dollar-value tax cut in world history. There are a few economic principles that most economic scholars subscribe to, one of them being:
Save in good times, spend in bad times.
A budget deficit when the economy is running high makes no sense whatsoever.
Tax raises would effectively chill down the economy, and likely would've prevented a lot of the real estate problems currently seen.
It's not a matter what the taxes are used for.
It's the effect the taxing itself has, it chills the economy. And to lower the taxes, when the economy is over-heated, it's irresponisble.
And now there is no money saved for when the economy eventually cools down. Those taxes could've been saved for future needs.
Run a budget surplus instead during good times. Reserve a buffert.
Fight Europe's ban on importing biotech crops from the United States.What's so great about gene modified crops? Why force Europeans to import those?
10. Reduced taxes on dividends and capital gains. Again, look no further on who is responsible for the current economic instability.
2. Reduced and is working to ultimately eliminate the estate tax for family farms and ranches.It's almost like Bush wanted to create a real estate crisis.
