Default Name a "Failed Republican Economic Policy"

Please ...

The only significant policies I can think of are tax cuts ... which increased revenue, and deregulation in lending ... but the lending problem is such a mix of failed bipartisan policies, I can't place blame on any one group here.

I am not as well versed in economic policy as someone like Rainmaker III (LOL!!), so I need some help here.

other than allowing deregulation, it would have to be NCLB. I know that was Teddy's baby, but Bush pushed it, then forgot about it.

I know you asked for economic policy, but since NCLB was not funded, I lump it in there. It placed the burden on the state, to fund the changes.

Yes... his first health care reform... I forgot about that.

From what I can tell, his true Republican economic policy was a success, and his RINO, dem wannabe policies have failed.

Either something is wrong with your link, or my firewall is filtering it. There was nothing in the body of the page.
