Bush Dumps Tax-Cut Plan, Will Take Over Economy (2003-05-14) -- U.S. President George Bush abandoned his tax-cut proposal today and will now push a plan which calls for the Federal government to hire all unemployed people and buy all the extra stuff that American companies make. "Since polls show that people expect the government to fix the economy, we're going to fix it," said Mr. Bush. "I used to believe that individuals and corporations were responsible for their own business, but I was malinformed." Under the new Bush economic plan, the government will erect cavernous warehouses throughout the nation to hold all the surplus it buys from American manufacturers. Many currently unemployed people will work in the warehouses, or as buyers. All Homeland Security agencies will increase staffing until the unemployment rolls are depleted. Many homeless people will work undercover, "just keeping an eye on folks" near major buildings and tourist attractions. The Federal Bureau of Investigation will team up with the Federal Reserve and hire hundreds of new employees to investigate the disappearance of Adam Smith's invisible hand. |
