i've heard about the agenda as perceived from the "moral values" set, from the "corporations" set, from the voting machine companies set, from the "pro war" set, from the "afraid of terrorists" set ... and more!
but ultimately, what is the bush agenda? i don't believe he cares much one way or another about any of the above mentioned groups - except insofar as any might benefit him.
what is the real agenda?

The neocon government is a corporate government. It works to benefit those in charge and everyone plugged into the money machine. It doesn't do anything for us, the little people, unless it's useful or convenient to them.

5. Wars for benefit of corporate cronies, destroy last tatters of New Deal |
|
Bankrupt the government to the point that there will never be any social spending on anything, ever, and people will become beholden to corporations and rich people's "charity" to meet their basic needs.
Just the usual GOP recipe, only on Fast Forward.

Reform the tax system (translation, shift the tax burden downward).
Reform Social Security (meaning, subsidize Wall Street investment firms)
War and more War (subsidize defense contractors, oil companies, and don't forget Halliburtin). Spread Democracy (=pro US governments) around the world.
Fight terrorism (deal a blow to the Bill of Rights)
Fiscal Restraint (spend as much as possible to bankrupt the government and therefore end social services).
End result: the US becomes a third world country.
