Not only is your post paranoid, but you're completely ignoring the fact that ALL of George W. Bush's economic policies benefit the rich almost exclusively.

SMALL businesses employ the majority of this country.

My brother-in-law and his brother run a small business and employ five people. Bush helped them.

If 50% of the people pay 96.4% of the income tax. The bottom 50% percent, you know the ones John Kerry, Ted Kennedy, Howard Dean are seeking to so heroically avenge, are paying 3.6% of the taxes. The wealthy one percent, who by the way are 83% Democratic, pay nothing because thr wealth is not derived from current income.

Members of the Wealthy Democratic Party Ruling class have thr estates structured in ways that prevents them from having income. This takes us to the tax code which liberals so poorly attempt to defend.

The Democratic party ruling class, or the limousine liberals as they are called include names like Democrat Senators Kennedy, Rockefeller, Corzine as well as families like the Duponts, Vandebilts, Gettys, Annenberg, Harrieman ect...... The companies that gave these American aristrocrats thr fortunes are long gone from there family control.

However, thanks to Democratic party control of the tax code thr staus as Americas ruling class is protected.

the U.S. economy?"

Small firms
? Represent more than 99.7 percent of all employers.
? Employ more than half of all private sector employees
? Pay 44.5 percent of total U.S. private payroll.
? Generate 60 to 80 percent of net new jobs annually.
? Create more than 50 percent of nonfarm private gross
domestic product (GDP).
? Supplied 22.8 percent of the total value of federal prime contracts (about $50 billion) in FY 2001.
? Produce 13 to 14 times more patents per employee than large patenting firms. These patents are twice as likely as large firm patents to be among the one percent most cited.
? Are employers of 39 percent of high tech workers (such as scientists, engineers, and computer workers ) .
? Are 53 percent home-based and 3 percent franchises.

small businesses DO employ most of the people and are responsible for most of the job growth.

W's tax cuts DON'T help small businesses. they help those who live from wealth. Coupon clippers, hiers, etc. If he wanted to help small business then the tax code would be changed to allow for tac CREDITS for new hires.

BTW no amount of tax cuts is goinf creat a job if the emplyer feels he/she doesn't need the employee. and no LACK of taxcuts is going to stop an employer from finding a way to hire if they need to.

I know I've had to meet payrolls.

and what the heck is Rebel smokin'? The top 1% are mostly Dems...get real or share!

what are you labeling "small business"?

Is WalMart a small business? Isn't that company one of the largest employers in the country?

I just highly doubt that 99.7% figure. Most people I know are working for a large corporation, or a company that has been bought out by a large corporation, etc.

Whoa, before you go off foolin yerself again...

Wal Mart is not the largest employer, those 99% small business is.

What Wal Mart is, is the nation's top PROFIT maker, and that's mostly cause we get the most productivity we can outta our lowest paid workforce - heck, we even make 'em work fro nothin' at times and tell 'em it's TEAMWORK!

HArdy hah har, I just love me this capatilist sociaety - Yahooo!
