The Bush Tax -- How Much is it Costing You?

Yesterday, when he announced his proposal for a new social contract, Governor Dean spoke about the Bush Tax.

George W. Bush talks a lot about "tax cuts," but he doesn't mention how much his fiscal irresponsibility costs. Call it the Bush Tax—what we are all forced to pay because the president gave away your money in tax breaks mostly for people making over $300,000 per year. The Bush Tax shifts tax costs to states and communities, which then raise your taxes to make up the difference.

Because of the Bush Tax, the typical American family will owe $52,000 more on the national debt. Because the President refuses to fund his own education plan, property taxes have skyrocketed more than 27% in Dallas, 25% in Houston and 18% in New York City.

We've started a new website, BushTax.com, where you can find out how much the Bush Tax is costing you.

The Bush Tax costs the vast majority of families far more than they received in their so-called tax refunds. George W. Bush did not give you a refund. He spent all the money you sent to Washington, and then took out a loan in your name to cut you a check.

The only way to get rid of the Bush Tax is to get rid of George W. Bush. Join the campaign now, contribute what you can afford, and spread the word that change is coming—Howard Dean will repeal the Bush Tax.

2. very very clever

should be a living document, cleaned up periodically, turns the issue back on their head

I'm for Clark, but if Dean gets the nod I'll be quite fine with it.

This should be in general discussion alot more will view it!!!

6. Great idea for a site!

People should refer to it when writing letters to the editor, visiting freeper bboards, etc. Get it as much press time as possible since big media isn't likely to give it much coverage.

8. Also, be sure to call the Iraq war just exactly what it is "Bush"s Folly"

7. Very clever

Hats off to the Dean campaign for thinking this one up. I can't wait until they get all of the states listed, so I can see how Bush's taxes have increased in my state. I hope this site gets a lot of hits.
