disclamer: i got all of this of both volumes of rock against bush at the end of this list there will be sites that they gave so dont be pissed at me and ask me where i found them...
1.The National debt under Bush jr. has increased so drastically that the average american's estimated share of national debt will be an astronomical $24,000- compared to $500 when dubya first took office.

6.Despite a 13% unemployment rate among those aged 16-24, Bush jr. proposed to eliminate youth opportunity grants-a program that provides job training to the nation's youth. a $225m program in 2002 is now being doen away with so bush can have more money for iraq.
7.he cut funding for 375,000 low income college students and reduced pell grant amounts to such a sever degree that it effectively caused 84,000 students to no longer be eligible for pell grants. pell amounts have been overall reduced for 1.5 milion students... it's safe to say that the bush daughters aren't eligible for financial aid, so this won't affect the opulent lives of anyone bush jr. may know.

10.all-time u.s. (and world) record holder for most corporate campaign donations.
