Economic Question

[usmcstinger]

During a economic slow down.


Should the Federal Government:


Increase the Corporate Income Tax rate for any size business


Increase Corporate Regulations for any size business


Would be the economic result of these tactics?

According to the stock market there is no slowdown

The federal gov't's role in society is clearly outlined in the constitution- I don't recall anything about using taxes to punish success- nor, do I see anything about the fed gov't choosing winners or losers in any aspect- it's role, near as my non-formal education can see is, to ensure one doesn't have a legal advantage over another- at this point we have gone waaaaayyyyy beyond that and it's getting increasingly worse- the best thing, IMNSHO, the fed gov't can do is to STOP fucking with people. Period.
