Kerry's Policies Will Result in Better Housing, Schools and Infrastructure

After three years of gargantuan tax cuts for the wealthy, it is good to hear that John Kerry’s plans will look at the other end of the economic spectrum.

For instance, his plan to raise the minimum wage 36% over the course of three years. He also plans to double spending on afterschool programs and increase chidl-care tax credits. This is in contrast to President Bush’s policies of spending billions on war, which will not have any positive offset in better housing, schools and infrastructure.

I’m afraid that if he is elected, and without reelection concerns, the President will continue to recklessly wage war and increase deficits in ways that will damage our country worse than any outside threats.
