A very self centered attitude. But that is to be expected of an angry leftist. It's not a perfect world. Just because you claim it did not work for you doesn't mean it did not work. You're lucky to have the unemployment check. There are worse places to be in this world. I showed proof in a previous posts, but you thumbed your nose at it. The unemployment rate went down after a tax cut bill JGTRRA went into effect in May 2003 and kept going down until the effing democrats took the House and Senate in Jan 2007 and latter that year, the rate started to go up. All in a previous post and all right here at http://www.bls.gov. The unemployment rate for June 2003 was 6.3%, July was 6.2% and August was 6.1%. So, now we see the rate go down and continued to do so until November 2006, the unemployment rate stood at 4.5% when the democrat party took both the House and Senate in Jan 2007. In June, July and August 2007, it stood at 4.6% which now we see a trend upward at 4.7% in October 2007 and has not stopped since. And btw, No president of the United States can create either a budget deficit or a budget surplus. All spending bills originate in the House of Representatives and all taxes are voted into law by Congress. You cannot get any simpler than that. Why is it hard for the angry left to accept, I don't know. No spin. No ideology. Just what works and works right.
