Reagan's tax cuts started about the time the Centers for Tax policy began its chart. The result up to 09 from the chart was a 270% increase in pay for the 1% and a 0% increase in wage for the 99%. That was over a period covered for almost thirty years. Since then, nothing has changed. That's reality. Relative to the increase in goods and services the American consumer/worker has made up zero ground.When they buy back stock, who does it help?The market is not struggling...where do you come up with that?...anytime you help businesses with their bottom line via tax breaks stock buy backs or regulation cuts their bottom line improves....they don't take that new money and make a cash salad and eat it...they spend it...when they spend it....it helps all of us...from the richest to the poorest....I will never understand why that is so hard for some to understand.....Read watch and listen....I don't need links to show we are far better off now than we were two years ago...and if you deny that you are the one living in the dark....why do you try and change the facts on the ground in broad daylight...we are all alive pal...even the most liberal on this board admit the economy has improved...they just give the credit to Obama....LMAO.....
Hold on there sport. I never said the economy wasn’t better off, but those tax cuts spent on stock buybacks didn’t help the economy. They helped companies improve their PE ratios by reducing the float. If you’ve noticed, the stock market is struggling and the latest earnings reports don’t show a booming economy. Economics is complicated, there is a lot to consider.
The truth is that tax cuts to well off corporations and rich people do little to help spur the economy.
Tax cuts to the working class & poorer help the most.
So why did your orange buddy & dumbass party give most to those who help us the least?
Again, it depends on where we are in the economic cycle. Trumps tax cuts did very little for the economy, Reagan’s were very helpful. Different time, different circumstances, different results.
