Quoted: The way i see it Bush hasn't helped me at all.The 200 or 300 tax refund was nice but it was a bandaid on a much bigger problem.since he has been in office gas prices just keep climbing and that started in march of the same year he took office..maybe cause he is in that business or backed by alot of foreign interest.i dont know but i'm going to give the new guy a shot if it comes down to me..

On the off chance that you were serious, let me explain.
You see, the $300 refund wasn't really supposed to do much for the economy.
It was just to help get the real, confiscatory taxes lowered on the upper bracket payers, by bribing you with $300.
Why? Because you don't hire many employees on you $5-25/hour paycheck.
But folks in the upper tax brackets don't like to sit on their money, in a mattress.
They prefer to re-invest it, to make even more money. (You know, greed. But it's good in this instance)
They hire people, and pay them, so those people can spend their paychecks on food and cars, and houses.
Which means someone else gets a job building those things.
It's a great circle. Money goes from person to a business, who pays an employee, who buys something from a business that pays an employee, that buys something with that money from a business, which pays an employye....
And every time that happens, taxes get paid.
My scenario is much more effective than the gov't taking the money from that first rich guy, because they only get tax revenue that one time, without all that other commerce going on.
The economy slows.
