Obama wants to do the same thing. He wants to give money back to every middle-class family. How is that not the same thing? Government programs to provide money and services could all be considered 'socialism'.

It's all about taking from the rich and giving to the poor. Not criticizing BO here, mind you, just saying...

My parents were pretty much grown when the Great Depression occurred. Dad worked with several of the programs that provided work for people then. The difference then was that the gov't created jobs for pay. That's what either party should be trying to do - not give handouts.

Whoever wins the Presidency will be better served trying to control spending, reduce taxes, get us out of Iraq, and stabilize the economy. I don't see another $1200 check to each taxpayer helps much in the long run.
