Reply To: Nancy Pelosi is Right – The Deal is No Deal: Make the Tax-Cuts Permanent

rt,

Contrary to what Obama is telling you about the ‘failed policies of the past decade’, it was the Democrats that caused the crisis by easing loans for those that couldn’t afford it. Tax cuts boost an economy they don’t fix broken things. President Bush wanted to regulate Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac but the Democrats opposed it. That’s what brought upon this economic crisis. And who tells you it wouldn’t be worse without the tax cuts? If the housing crisis would’ve come on the heels of the dot-com burst, you would’ve seen more than just a reminiscence of the Great Depression. The Bush tax-cuts recovery definitely cushioned the blow before the Barney Frank Doctrine hit.
