More Trickle Down? Get Real Trump Supporters!

[healthmyths]

Open your ears and listen very carefully, not to my words but words uttered by President Trump, and the words not said.

The Dow rose to over 21,000 today, and who did that benefit? Only those who have parked their savings into equities; the result of his words increased the wealth of the investment class overnight, but not those who have been left behind and watched the greatest inequity since the Gilded Age of wealth grow.

Will Trickle Down improve your economic situation? Will it open up new and well paid jobs for the working poor, the middle class and those now in college or recent grads with massive debt?

Will the repeal of the PPACA (notice Trump called it "Obamacare" (for obvious political purpose) and not called it the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, and in the process lied about the rise in cost when what came before rose annually too, and left too many behind.

Let's see if The Congress, so concerned with the massive debt, will pass a budget with the "largest military increase in history" cut taxes to business and spent one TRILLION Dollars on our nation's failing infrastructure.

IMO putting a Trillion Dollars into rebuilding, renewing and repairing our nation's infrastructure make sense, but not when taxes are cut and an increase in the military spending also cuts domestic spending (consider what domestic spending will be cut when a trillion is put into fixing our infrastructure? Whose taxes will be cut, what fees will be increased and added, and whose money will be used for all of this?)

So you support giving people the ability to OWN their Social Security account and invest it in US Equities?

ABSOLUTELY!!!!!

MY equity account would be worth if I'd been able when I started in 1967 and was able to TELL SS were the payments would be invested over $600,000!
I would tell them to invest in stocks when younger and as I got closer to retirement, move into treasuries (JUST as SS does right now!!!).

P #1: Calling for war bonds and a rise in taxes to pay for our war of choice in Iraq.

P #2: I will never, and have never shopped at WalMart; small retail is overwhelmed by local fees, taxes and permits. What is your solution to local regulations which impact small business?

Shop where you like Comrade, but Walmart pays better and provide VASTLY better benefits than small retail, so don't pretend to be a friend of the working man.

At this point the term "trickle down" is merely leftist code to trigger a negative response. You fools don't know shit about economics.

What would you suggest to jump start the economy? You do realize that Obama is the first president in history to never experience economic growth of 3% or higher in a single year of his presidency! Economic growth for the fourth quarter of 2016 was 1.9%, so Obviously Obama's economic policies did not work!

Obama's economic policies did precisely what they were intended to do. The erosion of the middle class under Obama was the greatest in American history. If looked at from the desired outcome, Obama was a complete success.

Because the stock market performance under Obama was a reflection of real economic growth. The current stock market performance is based on speculation - there has not been any real economic growth on par with the rise in the markets since Trump was elected. Only speculation.

What is trickle down?

Trickle down is the rich pissing on the poor.

Correction.... Trickle down is the LIBERAL RICH pissing on the poor. Why else is Warren Buffet, Bill Gates, Al Jazeera Gore, Bill Clinton and his wife, uber rich while those who voted stupidly for them, are dirt poor? Liberals are the stupidest people in the Universe.

No, americans are, and you're providing an excellent example here.

First off dumbass, Trickle Down Economics is a Liberal Term for Cronie Capitalism that Obama was using make the RICH much RICHER and the most in poverty ever.

Now what you really need to know is "Supply Side Economics" , where if you see a need, you fill that need. The more people want an item the cheaper it gets.. What!!! How does this happen....

When an item is created, if someone wants it, they are willing to pay a certain amount for it. If not, then the price of that item will go down. If more people want it the price will go up.
If there isn't enough of the item to go around, then other companies see their opportunity to make a like item and then sell it for less than the original, and then those people who were waiting will come in and buy up those other items. The more the want the more the need to make more. Soon there are plenty of companies to make the competition and prices will go down or the quality goes up. Your side doesn't understand this principle because they don't teach you this in school anymore. You could buy a TV from a US made company a long time ago, and pay 1000's of dollars for it, today with many TV companies competing for you money, you can get a TV for $100.

Supply Side Economics..........Cuba...........Cronie Capitalism/Communism.......Cuba..

What you just described is the law of supply and demand, not supply side economics.

Supply side economics is the belief that capital investment creates production and jobs, this in turn 'trickles down' money to the workers who use it to purchase the goods and services produced which generates business profits and more capital investment.

In short it's the belief that production creates demand.

Republicans have promoted the idea that tax cuts for the wealthy cause the wealthy to invest which stimulate the supply side cycle.

Unfortunately economics does not work that way. Supply side and trickle down have been total failures.

The reason is that when the wealthy have more money, they tend to invest it in highly secure, low risk, low growth investments - they do not need tremendous profits on their investments because they have such large amounts of money invested that a small percent return on investment is adequate - they prefer low risk.

However, when wealth is more evenly distributed and the wealthy have less money to invest, they are forced to invest in higher risk, higher growth and potentially higher profitable investments. They HAVE to take risk.

The key is that high risk investments tend to be high growth which creates new industries and lots of jobs. Low risk investments tend to be in low growth - OLD - industries and do not tend to create jobs.

Republicans have promoted the idea that tax cuts for the wealthy cause the wealthy to invest which stimulate the supply side cycle.

As typical of a liberal dumbass that you are proving to be, Republicans have not promoted the idea that tax cuts for the wealthy cause the wealthy to invest which stimulate the supply side cycle. What you failed to mention about the Republicans is that they promoted tax cuts for all WORKING CLASSES who EARNED that money to spend, not some liberal government hack who through taxes STOLE that money so it could be given to a shmoe who sits on his ass and smokes dope and votes Democrat. Why else do the ******* liberals always complain about how the poor are left out in tax cuts, yet they don't get off their asses and TRY to improve their lives, but sit and complain and live in poverty. You must of been college educated for you sure are stupid when it comes to people striving to make something of themselves, and the government putting every obstacle in their way to prevent them from becoming rich. Unless you are Warren Buffet who became RICHER under Obama while many became poorer.

Soros & Buffett to profit off Obama Keystone veto.

Obama vetoed a massive oil pipeline expansion to deliver Canadian and North Dakota oil into the interior of the US. The veto cost untold tens of thousands of US jobs and will guarantee the current levels of US oil dependency on Saudi Arabia and Venezuela.

Even liberal publications like the Washington Post and TIME magazine are attacking Obama for this reckless kick in the groin to the US workers.

I used to be amazed at how stupid a liberal was, but after dealing with them over 30 years, I just know why they are stupid.

No, that's not right. And it was proven to work, it isn't just a theory.


Understanding Supply-Side Economics
Supply-side economics is better known to some as "Reaganomics," or the "trickle-down" policy espoused by 40th U.S. President Ronald Reagan. He popularized the controversial idea that greater tax cuts for investors and entrepreneurs provide incentives to save and invest, and produce economic benefits that trickle down into the overall economy. In this article, we summarize the basic theory behind supply-side economics.

Like most economic theories, supply-side economics tries to explain both macroeconomic phenomena and - based on these explanations - offer policy prescriptions for stable economic growth. In general, supply-side theory has three pillars: tax policy, regulatory policy and monetary policy.

 

[BluesLegend]

I see liberals are lying again. Trump did NOT propose trickle down, if anything he's focused directly on good paying jobs for the poor and middle class. Education for the poor and middle class. Stop lying you lib scumbags shock the world by telling the truth for once.

 

[sartre play]

Trump wants 54 billion for military, am for any amounts spent on our vets, or support of people on active duty. we spend 598 billion dollars now, the next biggest spender is China, at around 146 billion. and where is the 54 billion dollars coming from? Trump said from EPA & FOREIGN aid budget. if we take all the EPA money ( close it down) that's only 8 billion. some one needs to check the math.

Why Apple is borrowing money to pay for $60B stock buyback

Along with saving money on the buyback, Apple boosts it’s earnings per share, a factor always noticed by Wall Street. If U.S. taxes were only less for corporations, they’d drop the tax shelters and come on home, right?

Maybe not, Sloan writes.

With tax rates at 35 percent, it’s considerably cheaper for Apple to borrow money in the United States than it would be for it to repatriate cash held in foreign subsidiaries. But even if the tax rate were only 25 percent, it would be cheaper for it to borrow than to repatriate.

When money is cheap to borrow(0.0% interest), and you get a good return on dividends(3.5%) on 1 billion dollars borrowed you make 35 million dollars on that loan. Now since you are a stupid liberal, you wouldn't know that, you just continue to goose step, drink liberal kool aid, be a mind numb useful idiot, and be a low information voter.

Trump's speech last night was a total 'Candy Man' speech!

He promised and promised that everything would be great in everyway, but he's WAY short on realistic ideas.

Cut taxes for every one, but increase military spending by $54 billion and invest $1 trillion in infrastructure.

What is his plan? To balloon the federal deficit until the government defaults and the world economy collapses?

Oh, it's public-private partnership! They type that Reagan put the kabash on.

Public-private partnerships only work if the consumers pay the bill (like in the airline industry or utilities), other than that it sounds like selling government bonds - i.e. the government going into debt.

That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard, even from a Communist.

The stock market is ALWAYS based on speculation. We invest in stocks because we are predicting they will gain in value. Or we sell short when we think they will decline. Either way, it is all speculation, sploogy.

His plans hinge on the belief that creating a better business atmosphere will generate more business. Far fetched for a lib, I know.
