Progressives Explain the Economy #1: How High taxes create jobs

Tax and spend Liberals....
good grief...

Yes, tax and spend liberals. And since Reagan, the great American socialist, it is borrow and spend conservatives.

 

[Wry Catcher]

Pretty soon the RINO's may take back the Republican Party from the radical element now in charge; see below another one bites the dust:

Chambliss latest Republican to break with anti-tax lobbyist - Yahoo! News

At this rate poor Grover Norquist may have to get a real job. Or ask move into a garbage can on Seasame Street.

Yes, tax and spend liberals. And since Reagan, the great American socialist, it is borrow and spend conservatives.

of course thats idiotic and perfectly liberal since Republicans have introduced 5 Balanced Budget Amendments to the Constitution all of which have been killed by Democrats.

If Newts had passed debt would be $0 now not $16 trillion headed to $50 trillion.

See why we are positive a liberal will appear to be brain dead??

The multi-trillion dollar spend-a-thon over the last four years was done by borrowing, Chumlee.

yes, as if fighting for lower taxes and limited government as our founders did is not real. Why not move to Cuba?? You'd better hurry there are not many communist countries left, for some reason.

How can we explain something no one ever said, idiot? Do you dine on "stupid"? Get so tired of your ilk making up nonsense and then demanding it be "defended" by those who never said it. You need to be committed, seriously. Before you hurt yourself.

Frank is right of course. Obozo is saying that raising taxes will create jobs not that it will shrink jobs.

Did you really think Barry wants tax increases because he thinks it will harm employment??

See why we are 100% sure a liberal will be brain dead?

You don't seem to be able to explain much of anything you believe in, yet you think I'm the crazy one.

Well I think I have the Heritage Foundation economic model down pat. First, the New Keynesians (and the old Keynesians too!) have it all wrong and the problem with the economy is not stimulus. As a corollary, if stimulus will not grow the economy, then destimulus like tax increases can't hurt it either. What matters is "confidence". When the confidencefairies and bond vigilantes believe the deficit is being reduced, the magic asterisks in Ryan's budget come into play and the newly energized animal spirits of the monied class will invest, production and jobs will skyrocket, never mind there is no one to sell to.

Personally I think this is all poppycock, but it is the only logical conclusion based on right-wing pseudo-economics. But who ever claimed that right-wing economics was either consistent or logical?

so then give us your most substantive example or admit as a liberal you lack the IQ to do so.

Are you fucking high or something?

What actually happens is:

Higher taxes => more spending on entitlements, payoffs, wasted programs in crony's districts=>lack of good working infastructure is kept unfunded so as to be used again fas an excuse to increase taxes more=>jobs go over seas to escape taxes=> jobs lost => more entitlements

need more?

Yeah...When do I get my free shit?

To each according to their need Odd-dude; you are so full of shit you don't need any more.

worked for Reagan so it must be a good policy.

dear, under Reagan top 1% paid only 23% of all Federal income taxes, not they pay an oppressive 40%.

 

[CrusaderFrank]

Do you see why Progressive insist that 8% unemployment is the New Normal? They have no idea how an economy works. Their leadership knows their policies are destructive but the portion of the Liberal Intellectual Elite that posts at USMB is rudderless and clueless

Well, at least you finally admitted that you're a commie.

I'll take the honesty, no matter how inadvertent, any time I can get it.

Ah yes, that idea worked beautifully in the USSR...and North Korea.

Higher Taxes => Higher Revenue => Repair, Restore, Create infrastructure => Jobs => Private Business Makes Use of Infrastructure => Goods faster to Market => Safe and Trusted Markets => More Private Revenue

Need more?

Higher taxes does not bring in much revenue.
France raised their's and look what happened. The wealthy moved away.
They did this the last time they elected a socialist and they did the same thing back then too.

It will happen here too.
Anytime you lower tax rates and red tape, it brings in more wealthy people and your receive more revenue.

very stupid and very liberal of course. We got from the stone age to here because inventors invented things, not because idiot bureaucrats hired inventors to build infrastructure.

If you put higher taxes on venture capitalists they have less capital for new ventures like Apple Google Amazon etc. That is a bad thing!! See why we are positive a liberal will be slow??

Dems shriek about raising taxes on the rich but their useful idiots can't explain why they want to do it.

Why do you want to raise taxes?
