Comments on: Baucus Proposes His Own Stimulus Plan

Let’s be civil. The Flathead Beacon encourages vigorous discussion and lively debate, but we will delete comments that attack other readers, make accusations we can’t verify, stray too far off topic, criticize local businesses (call them if you have a problem), convict someone of a crime, use profanity or are simply judged to be in bad taste. We don’t always have someone moderating comments, so we ask for your help: If you see a comment that violates these ground rules, or you simply deem it offensive, please e-mail editor [at] flatheadbeacon.com. The views expressed in the comments section do not reflect those of the Beacon.

If the US government wants real economic stimulus they need to extend lower capital gains rates, lower corporate tax rates, make the Bush tax cuts permanent, and eliminate the inflation tax on capital gains, just to start. This stimulus package is a weak band-aid.

You got it Roark…and also, WHY should someone who NEVER PAID taxes get a rebate??????  The leftist-liberal Democrats think they should!
Didja hear the guy last night ask President Bush (as he was leaving the chamber) “How do you get a REbate if you never gave a bate?“
The president really loved that one!
