How do you suppose he is going to pay for all this?

There's no proof that low taxes = more jobs. Business don't always invest, they sometimes just horde the money.
Economics is basically the study of historical trends in business. The trends sure do point to job creation through low tax incentives.

Even if a business hordes money away it creates jobs. Businesses put money into banks. Since their supply of money is large, banks are able to offer low interest rates. (basic supply and demand) The banks then loan money to someone wanting to build a house, thus creating construction jobs. (or banks loan money for a new car creating automotive jobs, or loan money to a student going to university creating educational jobs...)

Kerry's plan for the enviroment is to reverse the Bush-Cheney rollbacks to the Clean Air Act and spend more money on innovative, job creative programs that reduce emissions that contribute to global warming.
Of course he is.

To say Bush has no economic plan is inaccurate. You may or may not agree with his plan but it is there.
Quote:
How is he going to get rid of the deficit?

What's he going to do about the rising costs of healthcare?

What plan does he have for the enviroment?
Have you considered checking out the President Bush web site?
To reiterate, you may or may not agree with his plan(s) but to say they are not there is inaccurate.
