McCain on the economy

Sen. McCain outlined his economic platform recently in Rupert Murdoch's Wall Street Journal. If you're a subscriber, read the article here.

Among the major points:
--He supports the Bush tax cuts and making them permanent.
--Like Bush, he supports private accounts for Social Security.
--He might have "a couple of fireside chats" to bolster a sagging economy, but tax cuts are the best way to ensure a recovery.
--Media industries are among his biggest contributors.
--He's "always" for less regulation, but "is aware of the view" that government oversight is needed.
--He would reduce cost-of-living adjustments to Social Security and raise the retirement age to 68.
--He would cut the corporate tax rate from 35 percent to 25 percent.

I report. You decide.
