Action Alert: Rebuild

Move On is running a campaign to get some sanity in the rebuilding process.

Here is the extra text that I added:

I understand that in the theoretical world of supply side economics tax cuts and the free market will solve all problems. We do not live in a theoretical world though and it would be irresponsible for us to ignore the impact that the ballooning deficit will have on the economy if we simply leave the tax cuts in place and impose this massive debt on the next 10 generations.

Taxes are not punishment. a progressive tax system does require that people who can pay more do so. But the taxes we pay are our dues for citizenship.

We cannot afford this continued phase of 'Reaganomics' on steroids.
