Now the Illiteracy of Ray From Cleveland poster is Raving!
Raving Ray posts:
"Unemployment is not to stimulate the economy, it's to keep people going in between jobs. Not replacing jobs. The stimulus money is designed for stimulating the economy." Corrected response from mascale is that personal spending is expected to happen from the benefits, and so is a stimulus in lieu of lost spending. Anything additional is even more stimulus--prompting more spending, more consumption, more employment. . . and on and on.
Then Raving Ray posts
"You people are like trained seals. Tax cuts create debt. Planned parenthood spending doesn't create debt, The funding of the arts, NPR, PBS doesn't create debt, all our social programs don't create debt, foreign aid doesn't create debt, funding green energy doesn't create debt, only tax cuts do."
Corrected response from mascale is that tax cuts during federal deficits--and solely for the rich--create further deficit expansion. Raving Ray is opposed to paying the federal bureaucracy, the US Military, NASA, National Parks, CONTINUED PERSONAL CONSUMPTION FROM SPENDING ON SOCIAL PROGRAMS, NATIONAL BROADCAST CAPABILITIES, NATIONAL EMERGENCY RESPONSES, AND THE PURCHASE OF US GOODS AND SERVICES--ENHANCING PERSONAL CONSUMPTION AND SPENDING: THROUGH THE FOREIGN AID PROGRAMS! Against all of that, Tax Cuts are clearly designed to avoid paying for any of it, creating debt! Raving Ray at least might cut the military spending: First, Forever, and Completely!
Then Raving Ray posts:
"You people are so unbelievably brainwashed you don't even know it. You say what you are told to say, but never think before saying it."
Corrected Response from mascale is to start from Raving Ray's first line, "Unemployment is not to stimulate the economy. . . . and so on to more Raving Ray illiterate nonsense. Anyone notices that people spend, inventory is needed, people become employed to create it.

Which is what unemployment does without the additional fed contributions. What the federal government is constitutionally charged with is the protection of our country. To protect our country in modern times, we need to spend money on the military and military equipment. We need a a lot of training and housing. It's justified according to our founders. Planned parenthood and NPR are not.
We don't have a tax problem, we have a spending problem. The top 20% of earners in this country pay over 87% of all collected income taxes for the rest of us. If anybody deserves a tax cut, it's them since they pay almost all of it.
On one hand your claim is government goodies contribute to our economy. Well...what do you think the wealthy do with their money, put it under their mattress? They buy things, they invest, they support the stock market where many of us have our retirement plans in. With tax cuts they have the ability to expand business and create more jobs. They are just as instrumental to our economy as the average American consumer. If they don't produce products and services, there is nothing for us to spend our money on.
And remember: At least raving illiterate Ray knows how to use the forum, particularly the quote feature; something you apparently don't know how to use yet.
"I cannot lay my finger on that article of the Constitution that grants Congress the right, of expending on articles of benevolence, the money of their constituents."
