Bush told the country his tax cuts would result in economic growth and sustained prosperity, when in fact, from 2001 to 2007, the economy experienced the weakest job growth since the end of World War II. While the nation's millionaires and billionaires were enriched, average household income fell for the first time on record. Worse, since the Bush tax cuts did not pay for themselves, they've added trillions to the nation's deficit. It's been nearly 11 years since the Bush tax cuts were enacted; they've proven a dismal failure. End them now!!
Why is this important?
