my favorite part of the 3rd debate:
McCain: "He wants to spread the wealth around... That means class warfare."
It's as if he was pointing and shouting, "Socialist, Socialist!" as though that's guaranteed to mobilize the US electorate against Obama.
Where does a $900+ billion dollar bailout charged to taxpayers score on the "commie-meter" compared to higher taxes on the richest 5% of Americans?
Maybe when the money goes to corporate America, it's not socialism....but every tax dollar that goes to health care and education for regular people, has got Karl Marx on the front of it.
Glad you've got the gumption to at least attempt to understand this economic stuff, and to write about it in your blog. Also like your new Flickr badge!
