is in recess and the press has gone berserk over the Terri Schiavo case. So very
little attention is being paid to pending budget proposals that are scandalously
unfair, but that pretty accurately reflect the kind of country the

President
Bush believes in an "ownership" society, which means that except for
the wealthy, you're on your own. The president's budget would cut funding for
Medicaid, food stamps, education, transportation, health care for veterans, law
enforcement, medical research and safety inspections for food and drugs. And, of
course, it contains big new tax cuts for the wealthy.

These
are the new American priorities. Republicans will tell you they were ratified in
the last presidential election. We may be locked in a long and costly war, and
federal deficits may be spiraling toward the moon, but the era of shared
sacrifices is over. This is the era of entrenched exploitation. All sacrifices
will be made by working people and the poor, and the vast bulk of the benefits
will accrue to the rich.

While
the press and the public are distracted by one sensational news story after
another - Terri Schiavo, Michael Jackson, steroids in baseball, etc. - the
president and his party have continued their extraordinary campaign to undermine
the programs that were designed to fend off destitution and provide a reasonable
foundation of economic security for those not blessed with great wealth.

President
Bush has proposed more than $200 billion worth of cuts in domestic discretionary
programs over the next five years, and cuts of $26 billion in entitlement
programs. The Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, which analyzed the
president's proposal, said:

"Figures
in the budget show that child-care assistance would be ended for 300,000
low-income children by 2009. The food stamp cut would terminate food stamp aid
for approximately 300,000 low-income people, most of whom are low-income working
families with children. Reduced Medicaid funding most certainly would cause many
states to cut their Medicaid programs, increasing the ranks of the
uninsured."

Education
funding would be cut beginning next year, and the cuts would grow larger in
succeeding years. Food assistance for pregnant women, infants and children would
be cut. Funding for H.I.V. and AIDS treatment would be cut by more than half a
billion dollars over five years. Support for environmental protection programs
would be sharply curtailed. And so on.

Conservatives
insist the cuts are necessary to get the roaring federal budget deficit under
control. But they have trouble keeping a straight face when they tell that
story. Laden with tax cuts, the president's proposal will result in an increase,
not a decrease, in the deficit. Shared
sacrifice is anathema to the big-money crowd.

The
House has passed a budget that is similar to the president's, except it contains
even deeper cuts in programs that affect the poor. In the Senate, a handful of
Republicans balked at the cuts proposed for Medicaid. Casting their votes with
the Democrats, they were able to eliminate the cuts from the Senate budget
proposal. The
Senate also added $5.4 billion in education funding for 2006.

All
the budgets contain more than $100 billion in tax cuts over the next five years,
which makes a mockery of the G.O.P.'s budget-balancing rhetoric. When Congress
returns from its Easter recess, the Republican leadership will try to reconcile
the differences in the various proposals. Whatever happens will be bad news for
ordinary Americans. Big cuts are coming.

The
advances in areas like education, antipoverty programs, health services,
environmental protection and food safety were achieved after struggles that, in
some cases, took many decades. To slide backward now (hurting millions of people
in the process) because of a desire to siphon funds from those programs and hand
them over as tax cuts to the wealthiest members of our society, is obscene.
