If McCain really believes that lower tax rates on the super rich will create jobs then . .

If John McCain really believes that lower tax rates on the super rich will bring 8 million jobs - as his campaign manager is blabbing on MSNBC now - then why doesn't the McCain campaign have the guts to stand up and cut or eliminate all taxes on the super rich so that 30 million jobs will be created and everyone's wages rise - the middle class can then bear the load of the government and the super rich will, while getting richer, create even more jobs.

Go ahead John I dare you - apply your own idiotic logic to its logical but yet absurd conclusion.

2. Hell, why stop at tax cuts for the rich only?
Cut ALL taxes to 0% for all wage earners. Just imagine how many jobs that would create, and imagine the infinite revenue stream of the government!! We could afford 5 wars at once that way!!

:sarcasm: (as if it was needed)

3. I would like someone to ask McBush why he expects lowering
taxes on big business will create jobs in this country. Big business will milk their profit and outsource the jobs to a country with slave wages and universal or no healthcare.

5. hmm ... how come you never hear the term "tax shelter" any more?
Oh ... probably because people put money into other businesses to write off some of their profits ...
