DISQUS

This is a phony issue that McBush has raised to keep people from noticing that he want to continue to support tax policies and regulatory policies and labor policies and health policies and education policies that favor the rich and penalize the average American. Here's the bottom line: Since World War II, the economy has grown almost twice as fast under Democratic Presidents as it has under GOP Presidents. Furthermore, the smaller growth under the Republicans has been concentrated in fewer hands. Or to put it another way, the economy has grown faster under Democrats because Democrats have supported opportunities for everyone while Republicans have supported growing concentrations of wealth in the hands of the few. So which do you want, slower economic growth and growth that benefits those at the top while often leaving out those at the bottom, or a healthy economy in which everyone benefits.
