After reading through this I would appreciate it fkusumot if you didn't use those words. They only downgrade a thread into a hell hole.

Jesus fucking Christ. Quit while you're ahead. This is your evidence? Holy mother of fucking god, why hasn't the liberal press reported this earth shattering news!


Please no blasphemy...


Did you mean the "Jesus fucking Christ" part? Or does your definition of blasphemy include any type of profanity?

 


 yes, that part...

@luinil: thanx for the support, the last thing we need here is more people starting useing that kind of tone...

I'm not defending Bush but ...

How many people here are employed by a poor person? The fact is that a reduction in corporate taxes creates jobs and is far better for "poor people" than a similar tax cut would be for them; beyond that corporations are not (really) owned by a bunch of "rich people" who own top-hats and monocles, they're owned by everyone who invests, or has a pension.

Bush's mistake was he produced tax-cuts while increasing spending, and thus ran up high deficits which devalues the dollar and creates (high) inflation.
A better question might be "How many businesses are kept afloat by poor people?" 

Giving money to poor people helps poor people more than giving it to rich people.  It's silly to argue otherwise -- when a corporation finds itself more profitable its natural inclination isn't a wage hike for the janitorial staff.

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.

It is a lie? Or just a mis-conception? Any proof to backup? I see it working quite well.



Damn. That was some good weed and cheetos.

So what'd I miss?

Serves me right for challenging his sales predictions!

@ luinil

I guess you're talking about the part I edited in then edited out again.  I didn't mean "lie" literally, that was kind of a joke, but I do think it's not what it was cracked up to be.  Where do you "see" it working well?  This country is not in as good shape as it was when Republicans were not the policymakers.

Yeah, I agree the Republocrats suck. Or should I call them the Democans? Either way they FAIL. Overall I am more conservative. I have seen anecdotally evidence of this. Kids out of high school starting their own business in IT. Tax cuts for businesses may not increase the pay of janitorial staff, but it could hire more janitors if they need it. This is better for more people than a tax cut for the people who pay no taxes other than payroll taxes.



Right, but look at it this way: If a rich person/business owner gets money, SOME of that goes to poor people/employees. If a poor person gets it, it ALL goes to poor people. There's no way around that. (BTW, I wonder whether both of our oversimplifications are getting to the point that they're losing real-world significance.)

[edit: Also, why do you mention small startup businesses as having significance to this discussion?]

meh, not terribly interested in this topic today. Maybe some other day I will jump into a economic debate. But I stand by what I say.



Sadly it isnt even the war that's draining the US. It is the insurance companies. Freaking pirates.
