bush trying to screw us again

Bush Plan Would Cut Survivor Benefits
WASHINGTON - If President Bush gets his way, the venerable $255 Social Security death benefit will fade into history. And 16- and 17-year-old high school dropouts will lose their monthly survivor payments.

Not, however, if Democrats get their way.

"The Republican Congress has given a whole new meaning to the term 'women and children first,'" Illinois Rep. Rahm Emanuel, chairman of the House Democratic campaign committee, said Tuesday.

"There they go again," said New York Sen. Chuck Schumer, who heads the party's Senate campaign effort. "They can't resist trying to cut Social Security, and to cut a survivor, a widow or widower's benefits, it just shows how warped the priorities are in this budget."

So, bush again wants to screw the average person and even take away teenagers' payments! Gawd forbid we keep the inheritance tax for the ultra-rich, though! Or even remove the tax cuts that bush has given to the ultra-rich. He has his priorities!
