Warning: What Eight Years of BUSH/CHENEY May Do To Your Economy
The most common side effects of BUSH/CHENEY are ill-conceived invasions of foreign countries, excessive occupations of said foriegn countries, tax cuts for the rich, wasting a long-sought-after surplus (a surplus that was really paying down slivers of our monstrous debt; a surplus AL GORE ran on preserving—remember the ‘lockbox?’), no-bid contracts for cronies, military spending unchecked by conscience or fiscal discipline, unfunded mandates on public schools, a completely bungled response to a nearly apocalyptic hurricane, the opportunity for hedge funds and private insurance companies to explode in unsustainable growth, irresponsible or lacksidasical regulation of banks, millions wasted on abstinence education, massive real estate fraud, and upset stomach. Less commonly, blurred vision, restricted civil liberties, hostility towards science, SARAH PALIN, or sensitivity to light may briefly occur.
