Rumors are leaking out about the populist shift of the Obama agenda that will be revealed in his upcoming State of the Union speech. The New York Times breathlessly reports that "President Obama will propose in his State of the Union address a package of modest initiatives intended to help middle-class families, including tax credits for child care, caps on some student loan payments and a requirement that companies let workers save automatically for retirement, senior administration officials said Sunday."
Big damn deal!! You want to help the middle class? Get off their backs, cut entitlement programs that suck up tax dollars, reduce payroll taxes, reduce taxes to business so they can boost production and add jobs. Stop the healthcare reform and Cap and Trade talk that keep business from hiring because they don't know what is going on.
And finally, slash the size of the Federal Government by 50% and return the savings to the middle class that pays for all the unconstitutional waste.
But don't hold your breath: you won't hear any of that in this President's speech.
