Christian Democrats in the United States

Domestic Issues - Jobs and Taxes

We demand a living wage for all workers in America and object to attempts to establish a flat tax because of the comparative value of one dollar to one's total capital. We insist on closing tax loopholes for the wealthiest people and corporations, and support tax incentives for corporate programs with substantial public benefit. America must find a way to increase manufacturing exports since service jobs add less to the economy in the long term. We support a shorter, smarter work-week for all Americans.

Decisions by the Secretary pursuant to the authority of this Act are non-reviewable and committed to agency discretion, and may not be reviewed by any court of law or any administrative agency.

Excuse me?

Are you starting to wonder why "your pal" George W. Bush would push this kind of legislation? Because he hates you and wants your money, maybe?

Why not give $700 billion to forgive all debts to the Small Business Administration, and use the rest to pay teachers and build high-tech factories and distributed green energy systems to give us jobs and help us regain an export surplus. We might have to cut up our credit cards, but that would do far more good than letting failed laissez-faire economics continue.

Besides, where does this $700 billion come from? You think the government has those assets? No, we're borrowing it from China through T-bills. You think the Dragon's going to forgive your mortgages when the U.S. goes bankrupt and has to turn over these "assets" i.e. your house to foreign countries to cover the maturing bills?

Traitors in our midst. Traitors running the show. Traitors taking your money, sinking the ship, and selling us out.
