The greatest stimulus package on the face of the earth is a tax cut.

It is a tax cut.

I want some of you to check this next time you have a chance, just check and see if your property tax every year is higher than what you’re paying for health insurance. Not what your benefit is. If your company provides you 80% of — what your out-of-pocket health care expenses are, find out if your property tax is higher than your health care. I’ll bet a lot of people’s property tax is higher than what you’re paying on health care.

I’ll bet you that you’ll be stunned to learn that in most of your cases — not all of you, of course — but in most cases, you’re being taxed, or charged, far more for other things in life than your health care is costing you. Check that out.

And would you ever stop to think, well, maybe somebody ought to do something about your property tax and cutting that? What kind of stimulus would that be? Or maybe further income tax rate reductions or making these current tax cuts permanent?

Mrs. Clinton wants to give 250 or 300 bucks per person? Big whoop. We’ve been through this before. The last time somebody came up with this plan — it was enough to go out and buy a muffler for your car. Another thing with the stimulus package, you know what’s going to happen, most people are going to take it and retire debt with it. Well, that’s what happened last time, anyway, statistically.

Hillary Clinton has put out a press release:

“Hillary Clinton, joined by New Jersey governor John Corzine and Michigan governor Jennifer Granholm, discuss solutions for the American economy on a conference call today.”

This is absurd…

She’s going to have a conference call with two governors whose states are fiscal basket cases, to discuss how to improve the economy!

It’s worse than absurd.

It is stupid, and she just had a shocking night in Michigan last night. I mean, 70% of the African-American vote went over there and voted for Uncommitted, not her.

People in Michigan, do you believe this? Hillary in a press conference call with Jennifer Granholm to discuss solutions to the economy?

The Democrats in their debate, talk about a stimulus package.

It’s just a joke, folks.

It’s just a ruse to grow the government, to get you more dependent on the government, and to get the government bigger.

A seventy billion dollar stimulus package? Whipppeee! It’s not going to accomplish anything. That might be able to go buy a muffler. That’s what you were able to do with the last stimulus package, remember that?

Of course, the last stimulus package, if I’m not mistaken, the last stimulus package was instituted by a Republican, Bush… and the press made jokes about it. Where do you think the muffler thing came from? The Media and the Democrats, said, “Well, this is really no good. All you can do is just go buy a muffler with this thing. It’s not really a stimulus.” It was Tom Daschle, who was the Senate majority leader from South Dakota. It was the Bush stimulus package early on, coming out of a recession; they made fun of it.

Now the Democrats are talking about much the same thing. “Oh, it’s wonderful! They care. We need this to stave off the recession.” So, it is what it is, and that’s a sad thing, because the people up on the Democrat side are all disasters. Some on the Republican side are just as bad.
