Economics lesson 101: don't start two wars and cut taxes to pay for them

dear, cutting taxes increases revenue as a general principle becuase it frees an economy from soviet constraints. Do you understand?

Do you understand that this did not happen, my dear?

Then why did it work so well under President Kennedy Jake?

Giving more money to the wealthy is also patriotic
Giving money to working Americans is........Socialism

not stealing money from the wealthy is not giving them money. If you don't want the wealthy to have so much money stop buying the great stuff they invent!!

you want to buy their stuff and then steal the money back? Suppose they want to sell you stuff and then steal the stuff back without giving you your money back?

Taxation is a constitutionally approved means to raise revenue. Stealing is a criminal act

What about when Congress gets automatic raises. What do you think about that? I am curious to see just how big of a government lackey you really are. Lol!

Yes they do. Unless they vote to not give themselves a raise, they get an automatic raise.

Taxation is not theft and it is not socialism.

Libertarian political and Mises economic policy encourages theft by the elites.

Do you understand that this did not happen, my dear?

Then why did it work so well under President Kennedy Jake?

The lesson begins.

Keep in mind, unlike contemporary GOP policy, Kennedy’s plan distributed “peace dividends” broadly across the wage spectrum. As the Joint Committee on Internal Revenue Taxation explained at the time, the bottom 85% of the population received 59% of the benefits of JFK’s tax cut. The top 2.4% received 17.4% of the tax cut, and the top 0.4% received just 6% of it.

Those on the right who see themselves as descendents of the Kennedy policy are either deeply confused or they assume you won’t bother to learn the truth.

The right 8217 s misplaced love of JFK tax cuts Political Animal The Washington Monthly

The bottom 85% received 59% of the wealth dividend,

Peach, have our GOP propose such a 'wealth dividend" for our country now.

Now you know the truth, too. Thus endeth the lesson.

My reading of history convinces me that bad government results from too much government.

Let's welcome the liberal to his first lesson in American History:

-Thomas Jeffferson:
Our country is now taking so steady a course as to show by what road it will pass to destruction, to wit: by consolidation of power first, and then corruption, its necessary consequence.

Sometimes it is said that man cannot be trusted with the government of himself. Can he, then be trusted with the government of others? Or have we found angels in the form of kings to govern him? Let history answer this question.

I like those quotes from the democratic-republican party leader and president, Thomas Jefferson.

Lesson 1: Any Economics analysis that does not include either "it depends" or "on the other hand" (or such like phrase) is useless bunk and not an objective analysis of the topic.

The liberal wants to buy stuff from the rich and then steal the money back? If the liberal doesn't want the rich to have so much money why not just stop buying from them. Suppose the rich wanted to sell you stuff and then steal the stuff back without giving you your money back? To a liberal the winner is the special interest group that uses the govt to steal the most on their behalf.

Taxation is not theft, but refusal to pay one's fair share for our communal needs is indeed theft.

That is exactly what Eddy proposes.

 

[reason10]

The basic rule of economics is, the less the soviet liberal govt does the stronger the economy will be.

Any lib care to refute that?

Well, you're right.

dear, cutting taxes increases revenue as a general principle becuase it frees an economy from soviet constraints. Do you understand?

Special Ed thinking income tax cuts increases revenues seems appropriate.
