Help!

John Bahener, the head of the congress or something just explained his economic policy vis a vis government  spending and I don't get it.

He wants more tax cuts. Haven't we had more tax cuts? He wants to keep tax cuts for the very rich, allow tax loopholes for oil and gas and any other group that owns a lobby.
Hasn't that been the theme of "economic thought" since Reagan? Have you notices an improvement in the economy? I know it's good in Asia, but I thought supply side economics were supposed to help the US.

He doesn't want regulation. BAD REGULATION. We haven't had much regulation for a pot of years. Anyone notice a problem with banks?

Thanks to these conservatives the following is true. Our hard worn money invested in US Treasuries may well give us back less than we put in. We won't just lose interest, we'll lose our money. The stock market goes on in another reality, the small investor will lose money. Social Security will be banished by the Republicans along with Medicaid and Medicare. We can't afford them.

Worst of all, we put our children to die in an unnecessary war and the Conservatives won't pay for their care either, not in the end, not when they see what a closed head injury really means.

Explain this for me. I really don't understand.
