Right now the President is trying to hang himself and Kerry is staying out of his way. Heck Kerry likely will win this election even if he does nothing except give voters a reasonable alternative to the status quo.
And BTW, Yankee has outlined very clearly why tax cuts for rich people do nothing to stimulate anybody's economy except the rich guy. It might make capital cheaper because it makes it more abundant. But the tax cuts that really matter are the ones that allow a family to replace that sagging mattress in the kid's room.
Now you can ignore payroll taxes and give me some lame story about a meal paid for entirely by a rich guy but, as Moneyguy points out, if that was written by an actual economist, then there was a deliberate intent to deceive and the story's target audience is ignorant people. It's a suckers' story.
And BTW, Moneyguy, my hat's off to anyone who has earned a degree, particularly an advanced degree, in economics. That can be tough stuff and mental calisthenics are mandatory in that field of study.
