John
Ashcroft here...
I've been roundly
criticized for WARNING America that SOMETHING
is about to happen without saying WHAT or
WHEN. Someone said yesterday, "What, are
you consulting a psychic or something?" |
|
| Well,
the answer is YES, in fact the RENOWNED Television psychic Miss
Cleo was the one who told me that an attack on America was imminent!
I asked her from for more details, but until now she
didn't have any. Now though, she says she is seeing more. Let
her speak for herself: |
| "And
I'm gettin' a strong feeling that
this terrible t'ing daht's a comin' will be perpetrated
by someone right here in the OO ES of AY! |
| I'm
seein' a travesty thaht will cost the good tax payin'
people of this country BILLYONS
AND BILLYONS of d'eir 'ard earned money-- |
| And
I am sensing that the man 'oo will do this terrible crime is
the son of great wealth and privilege. Osama Bin...wait!...no...what
is this I see? President George W Bush! |
|
He
is sure to give away HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS OF DOLLARS
to tha big corporations who paid for his campaign. Yes,
I'm seeing it oh so clearly now--AND IT'S TRULY TERRIFYIN'!
The Senate bill about to be passed, backed by the
president is sure to cost the nation BILLYONS YA HEAR?
A true act of financial terror!"

 Shut
up Cleo, YOU'RE FIRED! Look, what's good for
Business is good for America! And we found dozens of
ways to hand out billions to America's biggest businesses.
Not only tax breaks: we're actually writing checks and
sending out billions direct from the treasury. Yes,
YOUR TAX DOLLARS. But remember: crisis requires sacrifice!
|
billion$
this
year! |
How
we did it: (see
NYTimes 10-25) |
| $25.4 |
We
repealed the Alternative Minimum Corporate Income Tax,
and we are going to refund all the money paid to this
tax by corporations dating back to 1986. IBM gets a check
for $1.4 billion alone! GM gets $832 million, and GE gets
$671! |
| $39.3 |
Corporations
will get to write off 30% of the cost of future
capital investments--up to 3 years into the future. |
| $4.7 |
Extending
from 2 to 5 years the period in which corporations can
offset previous years' tax bills with this year's losses. |
untold
billions! |
Reduce
the top rate on capital gains from 20% to 18%. |
