Tax cuts have not created a single job

First and foremost goal of every bureaucracy is to preserve itself

P.S. They should have kids in school repeat this like a mantra every day. Actually why? Teachers with their unions belong to the worst. No offence to the individual teachers.

 

why not make the government more efficient and accountable? would never happen because it would require major changes to the political system

a government can be efficient if that was the goal of the government. never is though

 

Sounds good. You write it up, and I'll approve it.

 

There are basically three kinds of people who: despise the fact that successful achievers would not be all that happy about carrying an unfair portion of the tax burden, and, want to keep it that way (or even more tilted).

-Politicians who do so for political gain/votes or noteriety.
(class warfare)
(example: Ted Kennedy, John Kerry, many others)

-Other successful achiever who manage to game the system
so that they pay a low rate anyway, so who cares?
(example: George Soros)

-Underachieving losers who neither aspire to nor have the
capacity and motivation to some day be in that achiever
class (most of the rest)

Which one are you?

 

The main PROBLEM is that the system is set up to BUY VOTES.
Cutting programs, which is what is desperately needed, is POLITICAL SUICIDE! Promising the moon to the largest classes of people (social programs and handouts to the lower classes) brings SUPPORT and VOTES.

And so you have a catch-22. Anyone bold enough to run on an extremely fiscally conservative platform could probably not get enough votes to get into office and accomplish what is needed. Those who are socialist leaning and make the liberal handout promises, get the votes and get elected.

 

Tax cuts have not created a single job
Why should they?
These days, people are being paid for not working.

That link shows the birth-death model adjustment @ -193, so without that adjustmnent wouldn't the number actually be 386?

 

hmmm.. guess you are correct..


prob why market selling then

 

Tax cuts vs. Gov't spending.

Haven't we learned how inefficent the gov't is. "Fleecing of America". Isn't apart of capitalism is the allocation of resources to most efficient means.

I would rather have the private sector (individuals) have the money through tax cuts then the government spending by a means of economic stimulation.
