John Kerry and John Edwards' plan to build a stronger economy will:
Create Good-Paying Jobs
As president, John Kerry will cut taxes for businesses that create jobs here in America instead of moving them overseas. John Kerry and John Edwards will also stand up for workers by enforcing our trade agreements.
Cut Middle-Class Taxes To Raise Middle-Class Incomes
When John Kerry is president, middle-class taxes will go down. Ninety-eight percent of all Americans and 99 percent of American businesses will get a tax cut under the Kerry-Edwards plan.
Make Washington Live Within A Budget
John Kerry will cut the deficit in half during his first four years in office. He will end corporate welfare as we know it, roll back the Bush tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans, and impose a real cap to keep spending in check. And when John Kerry puts forward a new idea, he'll tell you how he's going to pay for it.
Invest In The Jobs Of Tomorrow
Today, businesses are harnessing new technology to manufacture energy-efficient cars, high-grade steel, advanced plastics and other new products. And this requires a bigger, skilled labor force to make them. John Kerry and John Edwards believe we should invest in these jobs and invest in the people who will fill them.
Let?s go over their plan:

- I thought cutting taxes to improve the economy is a bad idea. He called President Bush ?irresponsible? for cutting taxes. What trade agreements are not being enforced? Do they plan to control free trade?

When John Kerry is president, middle-class taxes will go down. Ninety-eight percent of all Americans and 99 percent of American businesses will get a tax cut under the Kerry-Edwards plan.
- 100% - 98% = 2% of middle class taxpayers to make up the difference
- 100% - 99% = 1% of American business to make up the difference
How will the Federal government generate enough revenue to support it? Will the upper-class and big American businesses support all of us?

- I thought it was the job of congress to approve the budget. Is Kerry planning to pass the budget without congressional approval?
- Collect more taxes from taxes wealthy? The wealthy provide mortgage and capital monies for the middle class. Why take this money out of reach for those that want to get ahead?
- So far their plan is to tax the rich, give some back to the poor, and let the middle class go away.

- New technology like backhoes, CNC controlled machines, robots, and computers have already taken it?s toll on ditch diggers, machinists, laborers, and clerical people. Why promote additional technology that will further erode jobs?
- Advanced materials mean higher cost but longer life span. Why promote products that do not need replacing? The longer a product lasts, the less frequently they need replaced, this decreases demand and that means less need for production (fewer jobs).
- They plan on investing in jobs and the people. How will they do this? Government paid training and subsidies? What about cutting the deficit they claim they will do? Will he upper-class and big business pays for this also?
