When did Obama ever get a significant tax increase on the rich to fund stimulus programs?
He sure got a $1 trillion dollar stimulus. The result was the slowest recovery since the Great Depression. I fail to understand how piling a huge tax increase on top of that would improve the situation.

The stimulus was a one-time program funded by borrowing. While it wasn't anywhere near big enough to stop the recession, it prevented it from becoming another depression. Had it been a long-term relief program funded by higher taxes, the economy would be booming now.

Think of it as pubic capitalism. The government raises capital and invests it in the economy.
Better?

You don't really get the idea of capitalism at all, do you?
That's a "wish list" dipshit.About time the GOP told America what it was offering.
"Pushing back against criticism that the GOP had become defined entirely by opposition to President Obama, Republican Party Chairman Reince Priebus released a list of 11 “Principles for American Renewal” that he said would guide the GOP agenda should it gain control of government."
GOP debuts new principles to demonstrate positive agenda MSNBC
Any disagreement on these ideas for governing?
Here are the Republican Party's Principles for American Renewal
- Constitution: Our Constitution should be preserved, valued and honored.
- Economy: We need to start growing America’s economy instead of Washington’s economy so that working Americans see better wages and more opportunity.
- Budget/Debt: We need to pass a Balanced Budget Amendment to the Constitution, make government more efficient, and leave the next generation with opportunity, not debt.
- Healthcare: We need to start over with real healthcare reform that puts patients and their doctors in charge, not unelected bureaucrats in Washington.
- Veterans: Our veterans have earned our respect and gratitude, and no veteran should have to wait in line for months or years just to see a doctor.
- Security: Keeping America safe and strong requires a strong military, growing the economy, energy independence, and secure borders.
- Education: Every child should have an equal opportunity to get a great education; no parent should be forced to send their child to a failing school.
- Poverty: The best anti-poverty program is a strong family and a good job, so our focus should be on getting people out of poverty by lifting up all people and helping them find work.
- Values: Our country should value the traditions of family, life, religious liberty, and hard work.
- Energy: We should make America energy independent by encouraging investment in domestic energy, lowering prices, and creating jobs at home.
- Immigration: We need an immigration system that secures our borders, upholds the law, and boosts our economy.

Yep. You seem to think you're making a point. This is simply an obvious fact, and has nothing to do with the gross error of thinking of government "investment" as anything but the opposite of capitalism.

Government invests heavily in R&D in areas where capitalism avoids because they can't make a quick buck
Government grants in medical, communications, energy and dozens of other fields allow capitalists to come in without the risk but still reap the rewards

That's exactly what it does. But that doesn't "compliment" capitalism. It granting tax-payer funded favors to some capitalists, it compromises capitalism.

Capitalists don't care about long term investments. They care about this quarters or this years profits. By allowing capitalists to control R&D investments we will end up with an economy tied to short term gains.
Government has the capability to invest in projects that yield long term benefits....that is how science works

I wasn't aware that the government invented the automobile?
Maybe the light bulb........um, no.
Telephone?
Personal Computer?
Why are there "Long Term Capital Gains (Losses)" on my tax form 1040 if "Capitalists don't care about long term investments?"
