NumberSyx's Journal: The GW Bush Mandate

According to Fox News, GW Bush now has a "Manadate", how gaining two seats in the Senate could be considered a "Mandate" I don't know, but the people have spoken and the Republican party now controls every major arm of the government. He no longer have the Democrats to blame. It is now time to deliver on all those promises he got "Elected" on in 2000. So here is my list of expections for the next 2 years.

• Cut Taxes: Cutting taxes does not mean you run up the federal deficit, it means you cut government spending.
• Social Security Reform: Fixing Social Security does not mean investing it in the Stock Market, it means paying back all the money that has been "Borrowed" from it and then locking it up so it can no longer be "Borrowed" from and paying a reasonable interest rate on it.
• Health Care/ Prescription Drug Bill: This means making sure every citizen of the US has access to health insurance they can afford and has access to emergency health care. This does not mean letting HMO's run wild and unchecked.
• Education Reform: This does not mean throwing another billion dollars at it or subidizing rich kids going to private schools. It means every U.S. Citizen between the ages of 6 and 18 has free and equal access to a quality education.
• Welfare/Unemployment Reform: This means getting money and services to people who need it. This does not mean giving money to religious organizations nor does it mean punishing people in need because a small minority are abusing the system.
