Here is a great list of the upcoming budget cuts.
Kudos to my friend Jody over at http://thecattrapper.blogspot.com for posting this and other comments about Bush's kinder friendlier budget.Jody writes:
Instead of resolving issues that would save millions, even billions of dollars, the poor are targeted again. I believe in my heart that if the poor did not work vital service industry low wage jobs and if there was not such an industry benefiting from the poor, that we would "disappear" under the Bush regime into mass graves.
