To Conservatives: What drives the economy?

[asterism]

I see you vomiting all over threads with your complaints about this, so I want to ask you what is your plan to ethnically cleanse the American population back to what it was in 1980? How are you going to do that?

You want to live in the world of 1980 and the economy of 1980, well liberals have really changed America since then, so how are you going to bring back what America used to be?

The French Revolution comes to mind, the only problem is that someone like him is stupid enough to only go after the Republicans during his massacre because the Democrats aren't responsible for any of those stats that he posts. They're only trying to help the 'little guy', they're not in league with 'the rich' at all. Partisans are not only stupid enough to believe the lies their masters feed them, but they also don't realize how incredibly stupid it makes them look.

Yeah, it's the Dems fighting ANY tax increase on 'job creators', new regulations, Dubya's regulator failure, etc

CONSERVATIVE POLICY NEVER WORKS ANYWHERE IT'S EVER TRIED, EXCEPT FOR THE 1%ERS. EVER!

When "Dubya" was leaning fiscally conservative in 2003 it worked quite well. Then when he won in 2004 the "compassionate" stuff kicked in hard and the rest is history.

Hell rabbit, as far as we know, you are still denying that consumer spending drives about 70% of the economy.

You still denying that fact? Makes you a weak sister when it comes to understanding economics.

Consumer spending accounts for 70% of the economy. It does not drive the economy. Sorry, Zeke, but your daily purchases of Thunderbird do nothing for economic expansion.

That's a very good point. Most modern jets have computers to make minute corrections to the equipment to gain optimal performance. But it takes a pilot to command the aircraft.

Lefties like to think consumer spending is what drives the economy, but it's not. Consumers cannot pilot the economy.

Hey rabbit, I see that you have been doing some "educating" of yourself. What happened? Even your "friends" on here would shake their heads in disbelief every single ******* time you would come out with your fantasy that business investment drives the economy.

But back to your "progress". 70% or there about is what consumers contribute to our economy in the form of spending their money. But that 70% is not driving the economy?

Well hell rabbit, what is it that you think that 70% or our economic activity is actually DOING if not driving the economy.

In other words rabbit, are you saying that if that number dropped to 40% that we would have an expansion in the economy?

Face it rabbit. YOU have been wrong from the beginning, proven wrong over and over and even your buddies thought you stupid as shit for claiming that our economy wasn't driven by consumer spending.

But rabbits can learn. Can't they. I mean shit, you are a rabbit and you type.

Tell you what. You tell me just what the **** you think would happen to our economy IF consumers cut their spending by 1/2.

There is a word for what would happen. You know what that word is? Probably not.

And wtf is with the analogy of an airplane, a computer and a pilot and our economic activity? WTF is that about?

It's Zeke, star retard of USMB, weighing in from the lazy boy.
Hey Zeke, expansion is fueled by investment, not consumer spending. Ponder that a while as you sip on your third Rolling Rock this morning.

What drives our economy? Consumer spending or business investment?

If you think consumer spending drives the economy, what would be wrong about putting more disposable income into the hands of the middle class and the poor?

If it's business investment, what would be wrong about making adjustments to the tax code that would discourage outsourcing and off shore tax shelters? Shouldn't American business investment be made in, I don't know, maybe America?

NOT an 80 billion/month pump from the Fed.

We got a good old ponzi scheme going here s0ns!!! Middle class income down 35% in recent years and we have bozo's in here talking about "consumer spending driving the economy!!" OK!!!

The banks are now manipulating every market.....energy.....PM's......everything. Just the way the big boys want it!!

How awesome would it be for me to be able to just go into my basement and print up a few large this am and head out........happy now!!!

Hey, you are the supporter of the party that caters to the ultra wealthy. What's the problem with QE? Better than a tax cut for the ultra wealthy. The ultra wealthy have made more money off QE than they ever would have off a tax cut.

And you are all for a tax cuts for the ultra wealthy. Right? So what is the problem with QE.

The ultra wealthy made a fortune off the real estate bubble. Now they are making a killing off QE.

Ever notice that both tax cuts and QE were sold to us peons as "job creating" activities?
Trickle down and trickle up. What is the problem?

Hey Zeke, has wealth disparity gotten better or worse after 5+ years of Democrats running things? I realize from the trailer park it all looks about the same and the only time you see wealthy people is on TV.

True, because we all know the "real" answer is the "job CREATORS". Look at what they did in China.

And I realize that when you live in a hole in the ground like you do, that everybody looks taller and better.

Wealth disparity????? What the **** rabbit. Are you now going to worry about something that you have never worried about before?

Plutocrats don't recognize party except for when it serves a purpose. The ultra wealthy getting more ultra wealthy regardless of party is the norm in this country.

And now you want to act all surprised.

But tell me rabbit. What is the difference between giving the ultra wealthy a further tax break and giving the ultra wealthy access to capital at extremely low rates.

Both were sold as "job creators" and neither one worked. Except for the ultra wealthy.
Both have worked really well for them.

Now the rabbit don't think it "fair".

 

[Wildman]

When Conservatives began the Supply Side theory, aka "Trickle Down Economics", how precisely was that supposed to work? Policies that sequestered more wealth among the very rich was supposed to result with the largess of the very rich increasing the opportunity for the majority poor and middle class.

Yet the "trickle" has not happened. The "Supply" portion of the economy went after even more wealth. And today we see the results. Growing wage disparity and lack of middle class opportunity. Things are booming wherever we shipped those middle class jobs to. The executive suite continues to prosper. But Supply Side economic theory has been a bust fro economic growth and middle class wage earners.

The old way of getting wealthy was to invent something or create a new dynamic in manufacturing. That's what spread the wealth around because the wealthy needed labor as much as labor needed them. But today's way of getting rich does not involve anything other than the ability to make a killing in the market.

I ask you, which way of getting wealthy was the more noble way?

Can you explain what "supply side" or "trickle down" economic theory is?

Why? It's the Republicans fantasy. YOU explain it. And why you are "explaining" it, throw out some examples of the success of Republican economic fanta......I mean theories.

in other words, you do not have a ******* clue.

Hey looky its the asshole skooker. Shoot anybody yet asshole wid your big ole shotgun?

Anyway asshole. I never said QE was good.

What I said was assholes like you support tax cuts given by the government to ultra wealthy but you don't support the government giving access to cheap capital to the ultra wealthy.

Why is that? It wasn't a Republicans idea. Is that it?

That not only makes you an asshole, but a hypocritical asshole. Quite a pairing .

I'll try to explain it differently. There are 85 people riding on a city bus and 1 bus driver. What would happen if there were only 40 people riding the bus? There would still be a driver but there might not be the need for a bus as big.

That doesn't mean that the people on the bus are actually driving it though.

Hey Zeke.......lmao......when this pops, your guys will look like complete morons!!!


Because that's how it works s0n!!!
