Bush's economic policy is damaging American society. #1 |
Summary and Analysis of the President's 2004 Budget
Harmful Cuts
Cuts to Education, Employment, and Training
Cuts Funding for No Child Left Behind Act - The $22.6 billion to fund
programs under the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB) in the President's budget
is $1.2 billion below the 2003 enacted level, $1.4 billion below the amount
needed to maintain purchasing power at the 2003 level, and more than $9
billion below the amount authorized for 2004.
Cuts Major Education Programs - The budget cuts many programs below the 2003
enacted level and even farther below the amount needed to maintain
purchasing power at the 2003 level, including the following:
- 21st Century Community Learning Centers after-school program receives $600
million, a cut of $392 million from the 2003 enacted level and of $411
million (40.7 percent) from the amount needed to maintain purchasing power
at the 2003 level. It is $1.2 billion below the level Congress authorized
for 2004 in NCLB;
- Teacher Quality Programs receive $3.1 billion, a cut of $268 million (7.9
percent) from the 2003 enacted level;
- Education Technology programs receive $722 million, a cut of $53 million
from the 2003 enacted level;
- Impact Aid receives $1.0 billion, a cut of $173 million from the 2003
enacted level and of $192 million (15.9 percent) from the amount needed to
maintain purchasing power at the 2003 level;
- Vocational Education receives $1.0 billion for 2004, a cut of $336 million
(25.1 percent) from the 2003 enacted level;
- Fund for the Improvement of Education receives $35 million for 2004, a cut
of $284 million (89.0 percent) below the 2003 enacted level;
- Safe and Drug-Free Schools receives $694 million, a cut of $22 million
(3.0 percent) below the 2003 enacted level and of $28 million below the
amount needed to maintain purchasing power at the 2003 level; and
- Perkins Loans receives $68 million, a cut of $99 million below the 2003
enacted level and of $102 million (60.3 percent) from the amount needed to
maintain purchasing power at the 2003 level.
Eliminates 46 Education Programs - The President's 2004 budget eliminates 46
programs that receive a total of $1.6 billion for 2003.
Cuts Maximum Pell Grant - The budget cuts the maximum Pell Grant award by
$50 from the 2003 enacted level of $4,050. It is the second straight year
that the President has proposed keeping the maximum award at $4000. This is
in stark contrast to the last six years, in which Congress raised the
maximum grant by totals ranging from $50 up to $450.
Cuts Campus-Based Financial Assistance - The 2004 budget reduces
campus-based aid by $160 million (8.2 percent) below the amount required to
maintain purchasing power at the 2003 level and by $127 million below the
2003 enacted level. It cuts Perkins loans to $68 million, which is $102
million (60.3 percent) below the amount needed to maintain purchasing power
at the 2003 level.
Slashes Direct Aid to Students - The budget eliminates four student aid
programs. In addition, it cuts the program that provides child care for
student-parents to $15 million, which is 7.4 percent below the 2003 enacted
level, and for the second year in a row freezes all other assistance for
students at their 2002 enacted levels, thus undoing the increases enacted
for 2003.
Cuts Adult Training - The budget includes $3.1 billion for a new block grant
that combines three programs (adult training, dislocated workers, and the
Employment Service state grants), a cut of $60 million below the 2003
enacted level.

Most US workers saw their earnings fall or stagnate last year, with those at
the bottom of the income scale hit hardest.
The trend, coming alongside a slack job market, explains why many Americans
feel left out of the economic recovery - and why President Bush faces a
tough sell with his campaign-trail message that there is "good strong
growth." Democratic rivals point to "two Americas," one for the rich, one
for the poor.

WHAT ARE THEY SMOKING AT THE LABOR DEPT.?
By JOHN CRUDELE
May 11, 2004 -- DON'T get too excited about all those new jobs that were
supposed to have been created in April.
I'm not going to waste a lot of my precious space on this, but the bottom
line is that most of the 288,000 jobs that the Labor Department says were
created last month may not really exist.

A pattern of deception
A hard truth appears to have escaped the notice of the public and received
scant attention from the media: Bush is the first president in American
history to use deceptive propaganda as his main means of communications in
selling his policies. His pattern of deception continues unabated and in
direct conflict with the notion of the public's informed consent that is
central to American democracy.

What this ***** monkey really is say:
"I don't like facts, truth, reason, rationality, keep it away from me."
Under Bush's 'plan' we have had $2 trillion in deficits,
theft of all Social Security surpluses with no end in sight,
26% growth of the size of government, lied us into a $100
billion tar baby war, doubled size of pure pork spending
in two years.
We have a squabbling GOP Hopuse and Senate
that now cannot even pass a budget and are considering putting it off until
well after the election.
We have the Congressional Budget Office warning us Bush's plans
will double our $7 trillion national debt in 10 years and that interest on
the debt will grow to be as large as all discretionary spending both
domestic and defense spending.
www.cbo.gov. See the March report for details.
Pure, unadulterated incompetence.
***** monkey Asmodeus loves it though.
It will destroy America far more thoroughly than a dozen
Osama Bin Ladnes and not a single far right Bush supporter
even cares.
You have to hate America to accept Bush's recipe for disaster.

At least attempt to rebut the article's subject instead of dribbling out

Actually the most important is not. The stock market is saying that at best we
are just floating by. That is very bad news because the extra billions that
George W. Bush has wasted is going to hurt when the bills come due.
Every week for the longest time over 300,000 new claims for Unemployed have
been filed. That is a number that the lie boys cannot screw around with. It
pretty much states that the rosie numbers that you are pushing are not correct.

False.
All economic indicators show positive growth.
You confuse Bush economic propaganda with the wellbeing of American
society.
At least attempt to rebut the article's subject instead of dribbling
out
your unsupported opinion.
You're the one perpetuating a false story that Bush's economic policy is
damaging American society without qualification.
Go ahead, look at any economic indicator you choose, they're all
positive.
Interest rates and inflation rates?
Yes Sherlock, they're both still extremely low and a slight uptick only
indicates a growing economy - especially coming off record lows.

Well, the best interest rate I could get under Clinton was 8.25%,
and under Bush I got 3.25%.
But I'm not one of those who thinks the president has a lot to
do with making the economy good.
