The economic policy of the George W. Bush administration was a combination of tax cuts, expenditures for fighting two wars, and a free-market ideology intended to de-emphasize the role of government in the private sector.
He advocated the ownership society, premised on the concepts of individual accountability, less government, and the owning of property.
During his first term (2001–2005), he sought and obtained Congressional approval for tax cuts: the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001, the Job Creation and Worker Assistance Act of 2002 and the Jobs and Growth Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2003.
These acts decreased reduced the capital gains tax, increased the child tax credit and eliminated the so-called "marriage penalty".
Budgeted spending under President Bush averaged 19.9% of GDP, although tax receipts were lower.

Bush had a pretty simplistic view of both world affairs, and of the economy. I remember his campaign speech about his economic "plan." Do you make money? You get a tax cut! I think he thought that if you just cut taxes for everyone, the rest would take care of itself.
I'll make it big enough so you're sure to see it....
Bush average unemployment rate ........ 5.3 %.......an outstanding record....
Do you you blabber, bluster, and blow smoke ?...then you're likely a Democrat

Bush promised that his tax cuts would create jobs.
Instead, America lost jobs.
