48. Call tax cuts...Service cuts.
When they talk about "tax relief", it really means service cuts. Our services are getting cut every time taxes are cut. Get people to see the connection...

*Someone complains about waiting 2 hours for a cop to show up..."That's what you get for lower taxes...lower services."
*Standing in the DMV line for an hour..."Well, I guess this is what we get with tax cuts."
* Somebody's son's Pell Grant didn't come through..."Yeah that service had to be cut to afford Bush's giveraway for the rich."
*Elementary school can't afford new desks..."I bet that $600 refund was tasty, wasn't it?"
*Pot holes in the street..."With all these $300 tax cuts, they can't afford to repair the roads anymore."
*Social Security needs to be trimmed, per Greenspan..."Well, that's the breaks, but what did you actually think those taxes were paying for?"

The list goes on.
