The GOP's solution to the economic slow down?

Feed the Rich and Starve the working poor.

'Fiscal Republicans' believe that giving tax cuts to the rich
is the solution to creating jobs and stimulating the economy.
These are NEW tax cuts.

At the same time Republicans feel that the working poor
who are now unemployed should not be helped, in fact
this extension of benefits would be creating greater debt.

Understand, the GOP has given no cuts in the Budget to
offset the lost of revenue due to new tax cuts, and do not
feel the need to do so BEFORE the New Tax Cuts become law.

Again these are the 'fiscally conservative republicans' who
are not offsetting tax cuts with budget cuts.

Also if in fact the last 10 years of tax cuts did create jobs,
why were the last ten years of job expansion the most
anemic in recent history, culminating in job loss totaling
over 800,000 a month!

Why also are Republicans demanding that before unemployment
benefits are extended, the revenue cuts in the budget most
first be found? Yet the same standards for the tax cuts are
not necessary.
