The child tax credit should have been taking away long ago in hard times like we are facing and its about to get worse. why give someone money because they had a child??? Why not make a statement tax those with children the population is growing way to fast and welfare and social security are being drained.
there should definetly not be on flat tax you make more you should pay more.
you take jobs over seas import penalties and fees and higher taxes.

Okay, I realize I am much to late on this matter. Infact, I closed the window because I decided it was too late to respond. Obviously, I have came back to post. But why? I imagine it is because I find this entire post, well, most it anyways, too damned funny.
The child tax is only in existance because lets face it, kids cost money. I am 22 years old and my father is still required by law to pay for my college education. The child tax only offsets the cost of children slightly. Each child thereafter, the rebate is smaller.
As for flat tax rate...LoL...this is even better. A flat tax rate, as pointed out, for example, 20% for all incomes. If you make more you should pay more? Well, 20% of a $ 1,000,000 income is much more than 20% of a $100,000 income...much more.
If you like the idea of a progressive tax bracket, much like the left does in this country, look no farther than the
Communist Manifesto. It explicitly states one of the requirements of a communist society is the redistribution of wealth--taking from the rich to give to the poor--Robbin Hood Economics.
Taking jobs over seas is actually hardly a Bush idea. It really started with the Golden Boy, Slick Willy when he started NAFTA. Had you been against it then, you would have voted for Ross Perot, "Hear that gian sucking sound? That is our jobs leaving our country." Contrary to popular beliefs, free trade is too new of an event to know if it hurts or helps our economy. Show me 10 pages saying it hurts our economy and I will show you 10 pages of research saying it helps our economy.
To educate a little on the Florida recount (which is funny we are still talking about this coming up on five years and two elections later) Jeb Bush never did the recount *SHOCKER*. Rather, lawyers did. Now, away from the fiction one might dream up, every recount ended up with Bush winning. The other side kept demanding recounts HOPING for more voter fraud to turn the election the other way. Furthermore, Florida had two contradicting laws. One law read all votes must be counted by Such and Such date in December while the other law read recounts may take place. The Supreme Court ruled a recount COULD take place had it been finished by the date in the first law. That date had already passed and therefore the court upheld the first law.
