I guess what I'm getting at is, how can we throw down $75 billion just for the little "war" (which it wasn't- a war is when TWO armies are fighting), probably a couple hundred billion for the occupation of Iraq, and the Prez wants to cut $550 billion in what would be revenue for the government?
Meanwhile, schools all over the place (particularly in my state) are cutting staff and programs, and raising tuition because there's not enough federal and state money coming in. Also, if I remember correctly, one of Dubya's big targets of funding cuts (to support the tax breaks) is education. As if we're not dumb enough already.
