The darker colors indicate density.
Bush/Cheney "tax cuts" have led to a (currently) 9 Trillion Debt (I think it was only 4 or 5 Trillion when he took over).
I think the Bush/Cheney "tax cuts" (I keep on using that quotes, it's more of a patronizing "tax deferment") should be undone, and see if the $$$ balances again, just like in Clinton's term. For your average middle class worker, the tax rates of Carter-Reagan-Bush-Clinton-Bush are trivial; for your average CEO, the Republicans have been EXTREMELY beneficial, always reducing the corporate share of keeping America strong, and always reducing the share of the ultra-rich, hoping that "trickle-down" economics works towards employing yachts-craftsmen and the skilled makers of Rolex watches...
Also, cut off the corporate dodge of headquartering in the Cayman Islands, or in Halliburton's case, Dubai.
The projected cost of the Iraq oppucation (and thus, creating a Phloigiston-like "laboratory" of anti-American hatred) has been detrimental, economically-destructive, and diplomatically-diminishing...
"Staying the Course" should not be an valid option given the extraordinary cost of soldier's lives and American $$$ to try to make this five-year Iraqi occupation somehow magically make sense...
