9. And now...for the rest of the story

Dean has said that not only would he repeal the * tax cuts, but that he would also rework the tax code to make it fairer to the middle class, and simplify it as well.

As we saw in the 90s, small deficits (leading to a balanced budget) are probably the only fiscally responsible way to achieve growth (the dot.com bubble notwithstanding). It makes money cheaper for people who need it, and more readily available for people that will spend it.

The bottom line is that everybody is probably saying the same thing (lower taxes for the middle class)...everything else is just implementation.
