/----/ I said most, not all were dead weight. The companies would recruit at colleges and make offers to Black grads with legitimate degrees (not women studies) and they didn't need AA to find work, but there were never enough to meet quotas. So we had to find less qualified people and most of those were dead weight. The rest were marginal. Sorry I confused you./----/ I worked for Fortune 50 companies and helped in recruitment. Sometimes we had to pass on qualified applicants so we could meet a quota. There were a few AA gems but most were dead weight and did little if any work. They would taunt the management with "fire me and I'll sue."I bet you're one of those that thinks a black getting a job using affirmative action was the most qualified?
Affirmative action applies to getting a foot in the door. Once inside people rise as best qualified.
Just look at the record of Colin Powell. Affirmative action got his foot in the door.
Hilarious - just two categories, gems and dead weight. Nothing in between.
Providing for the general welfare is in our Constitution.Claims that he, and other rich will not benefit from his tax-cut...while it does EVERYTHING to benefit them:
1. removing inheritance tax.
2. Removes Alternate Minimum tax
3. pass through business income top bracket cut from 39 to just 20%
4. Top personal income rate from 39 to 35%
5. Corporate tax rate cut from 35% to 20%
This all adds up to a HUGE TAX CUTS FOR THE RICH and Trump personally with not a single idea on how to pay for all that.
And then he tops it off with "Belive me!"...what the fuck is wrong with him and how can his supporters stand by him when he pretty much spits in their face like that and calls them too stupid to know better.
Analysis | Tax reform is ‘not good for me, believe me,’ Trump said. Don’t.
Wow, sounds like Dims who pass massive entitlements, only, they lie about being able to pay for it. I can hardly wait for the free health care and college gimmicks in 2020.
Either way the debt goes exponentially higher. Those that give a damn have no representation.
The notion that we need higher taxes to pay for more things is blatantly absurd. Clearly that is not the approach they take with trillion dollar deficits every year.
From my vantage point it's all monopoly money as they print as much as they want every year. They will spend the same amount regardless of revenue taken in.
Total nonsense.
Yes, revenues absolutely matter.
You "fiscally responsible" Republicans want your tax-cuts? No problem, pay for them with budget offsets.
I want to see you try to convince Americans that its a good idea to cut defense, education, social security, medicare and etc. so rich kids could pocket their hard earned inheritance tax free.
Cut things like food stamps, WIC, public housing, Section 8, and the like. Why should those who inherit something have to pay a tax so those unwilling to do something can get it for free?

I LOVE wealthy people I might be one of them soon if Obamas market keeps upAll those farms and small businesses boo hoo boo hoo But trump will save billions If he dies soon I guess I won't complainYour guess is over by one thousand percent. Less than fifty in 2017. Around 20 in 2015.
And you hate wealthy people because...?

No, we'll just fuck with all you phonies who gave him credit on the way up but won't blame him on the way down.

Blues try to be an honest broker here What was the DOW a month or 2 after Obama was elected and what was it when he left ?? And how many were employed during his 8 years in office and how far down did our unemployment sink?

Yes, Yes. We all know how you like to rail against the people who are poor, because, and only because of their laziness and lack of good moral character. However, that does not have a damned think to do with Trumps tax proposal. What he is put on the table is a plan that will not only hurt the poor -many of who do work- but also the middle income folks . It is nothing more than a smokescreen for a big giveaway to the wealthy.That will benefit the rich while making life tougher for poor people no matter how you slice it.

Someone not willing to do even the basics for themselves should go without.
Today, most Americans aren’t clamoring for lower taxes, probably because most of us don’t pay very much in federal income taxes. Our tax burden has rarely been lower. The latest data show that the 60% of families in the middle of the income distribution — those between about $32,000 and about $140,000 — pay an average of just 2.5% of their income in federal income taxes.
Nearly half of Americans owe no federal income tax at all, but they do pay taxes: payroll taxes to fund Social Security and Medicare, tariffs, excise taxes, corporate taxes, property taxes, sales taxes, state and local income taxes, and so on. If they have a problem with taxes, it’s not with the federal income tax.
A bill that cuts federal income taxes for middle-class families makes absolutely no sense, except as a sad way of camouflaging the real intent of the bill: Giving millions of dollars to the very wealthy, who happen to be the only people who are really benefiting from our uneven economic growth.
Trump wants a massive tax cut for the very wealthy. He doesn’t really care how much it costs, or what it will do to the federal budget deficit, or to economic growth or to worker productivity. He isn’t even very picky about how, exactly, taxes for the rich are reduced, so long as they are diminished by a very large amount.
The new GOP tax framework would spread tax cuts across all income groups, with the richest Americans seeing the biggest windfall.
- And, if enacted, the package would blow a $2.4 trillion hole in the federal budget.
- That's the finding of an analysis by the Tax Policy Center, which crunched the numbers to come up with a preliminary estimate of the plan's costs and beneficiaries.
