In
his first six months in office, President Bush has declared war on working families.
- His $1.4 trillion tax cut will give 40 percent of its rewards to the richest
1 percent of Americans while jeopardizing the funding needed for public services
and jobs.
- Bush scrapped ergonomic regulations aimed at preventing
crippling wrist and back injuries that hit close to 1 million workers every year.
- He wants to privatize Social Security, which would subject the retirement
savings of working people to the wild fluctuations of the stock market.
