The GOP's Class War

George W. Bush’s alliance with the rich and big business makes his politics entirely predictable. Following the GOP’s form of class warfare, Bush always protects his favored class, whether giving huge tax cuts for the country club class or massive economic incentives for corporations that pay CEOs hundreds of millions.

His proposal for health insurance is nothing but a huge tax increase for taxpayers that will once again hit the middle class the hardest. The plan will surely lead to reductions in care by employer organized health plans and increased numbers of individuals scrambling to obtain decent coverage on their own.

With the Bush health insurance tax increase, working people lose big again, while the rich will find a negligble relative cost. I’m afraid this is a chance for Bush to do for healthcare what he’s done for peace in Iraq!
