McCainenomics: Voodo is Back

John McCain who claims to be a straight-talking maverick is misleading America.. He publicly distances himself from the wildly unpopular Bush administration. But it's just more of the same. Making windfall corporate profits the law of the land. Pandering to the religious right. Endless war. McCain's latest ingenious policy proposal is his idea to lift the gas tax during the summer months to supposedly help ease the burden on vacationing families. McCain's idea is so out of touch that everyone from Paul Krugman to Bush's council of economic advisors thinks it's a horrible idea. McCain's proposal is not about making life easier for families. McCain's real special interest is big oil. They get huge tax breaks to help them continue to rake in record profits, even as prices soar at the pump.
