The $300 check was an advance on an ESTIMATED lower tax, and an effort on the part of Bush to take attention away from his overwhelming failures as a president in environment, foreign affairs, economy, etc. Many people at the end of the year had a $300 higher tax burden because the ESTIMATE was wrong. The fact is taxes WILL be raised. How long do you think government can keep deficit spending before it must actually start paying the bills?
Let's see Reagan and the Bush family are Republicans. All of them increased the size of government faster than anyone before them. All of them deficit spent (bought on credit) like a drunken sailor and left the bill to someone else. All of them were horrible presidents, and unworthy to call themselves American. --- In [email protected], "Eric Dondero Rittberg" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > What was that $300 check I got from the government in August of > 2001? > > Clinton never gave me money back, IN THE MIDDLE OF FRIGGIN' AUGUST. > Don't remember Carter doing that either.
