lmao. This poll is too stupid for words! Especially since you didn't allow for middle ground. This administration gives tax cuts while spending like crazy. Your great-great grandchildren are going to be paying for this war. Nice move. Shift all responsibility to someone else. Typical Republican thinking.

I totally agree. the past 8 years have been "Charge and spend." it's so easy to label something a "death tax" while avoiding the difficult questions and consequences.

Did you know the "death tax" was a republican based PR move, because no one wanted to repeal the "estate tax"? It floors me how many people buy propaganda and never think it through. I guess that would be why China owns us now...;-)

Since there aren't enough choices here I'll have to go with the sane choice. "Dole out" is the answer.

If lower class voters have to see their taxes spent on stuff that will never help them, like the war in Iraq, which hurts far more lower class people than any other class because they are the ones most often used to fill the ranks of the volunteer army, it's time the government does something to help them.

Most of us know whenever you go to the hospital for any kind of serious pain the first thing they do is a very expensive CT scan.

An upper class person can easily afford the medical bills. A middle class person is likely to have a job where health benefits on the job will pay for the test. But a poor person is probably going to be working at a Wal-Mart or some substandard employment that does not pay health benefits, so as a result the tests will all be out of pocket and the poor person may be paying for many years.

Have the government do something for people that need it most. Only pay for unnecessary war after everyone's basic needs have been met. Only pay to send astronauts to the space station after poor people get the medical tests they need without having to be reduced to more hardship than they already face.

Maybe not easy choices for some. Heck, if you have 7 houses why not work on getting house number 8? Some probably think that way but I think we need to help people here at home first, then help everyone else after those who need help at home get what they need.

Really? I was in the volunteer Army. I don't wish the government to give me a means to live. I want to earn like a TRUE AMERICAN which is what I have done my whole life. So you openly admit you are a Marxist. You don't believe in the principles of capitalism that have made this country great. I am sad to hear thet there are people in this country who don't appreciate the blessing of being an American citizen. WOW!
