Bush and Cheney Fight to Protect Economic Growth, Fairness

It's pretty indisputable that the Bush-Cheney administration has presided over the greatest economic growth ever experienced in the history of our country. And the key to much of that growth has come from something that is part of the American tradition, entrepreneurship:

Indicators measure the nation’s unemployment rate, consumer spending and other economic milestones, but Vice President Dick Cheney says it misses the hundreds of thousands who make money selling on eBay.

“That’s a source that didn’t even exist 10 years ago,” Cheney told an audience in Cincinnati on Thursday. “Four hundred thousand people make some money trading on eBay.”

Even though the Bush-Cheney administration has presided over a period of record economic growth, prudently, they work to ensure that this growth is controlled and thus sustainable:

Several mothers who have lost children at war in Iraq took part in a new talk show today on National Public Radio.

One of them, Elaine Johnson, recounted a meeting that she had with President Bush in which he gave her a presidential coin and told her and five other families: "Don’t go sell it on eBay.”

Another reason we need Dick Cheney as president is to ensure all the jobs created on Ebay are not lost, and that Presidential coins are not simply sold to the highest bidder.
