But all that is pretty beside the point of the thread.
This is exactly why I mock the Hollywood liberals like Streisand. They scream about injustices for the middle class while they sip Long Island ice teas next to the pool on their $50M estates and claim that they care.

Is this what you all call "small govt."?

So many so-called conservatives are willing to give corporate welfare, but they aren't willing to give a hand-up to the middle class.
At least he has a plan for this. He also does want to help the middle class by eliminating all taxes on capital gains, interest earned from savings, etc for all families earning less than 200k/year.

Unlike McCain who has NO plan for taxes. Interesting how you completely avoided that thread I started.

So some govt. programs that interfere in commerce are actually good?

How can this be?
