Six studies that show that everything the GOP believe are wrong...

Rolling Stone? Yes, a music magazine is the perfect source for political and economic analysis.

Might wanna look up "confirmation bias".

Oh, you mean like using a meaningless attribute, like the news agency that printed the article, as rationalization for an unfounded opinion? You mean like that kind of confirmation bias?

You even use the term "confirmation bias" as anjustification for confirmation bias. Fucking incredible.

Now show the study that shows how republican voters don't even care if they are wrong. One issue wedge voters. Example, anti abortion people. They don't care about taxes, war, pollution, nuthin. All they care about is abortion. Gun owners? All they care about. They vote against themselves financially because of social wedge issues that don't even really matter.

Do I care if a gay marries or a woman gets an abortion? Absolutely not. Why are we even talking about it? Because they are issues the rich use to divide the dumb middle class.
 
Welfare is great for the unfortunate, and your complaints turn out to be Pubcrappe.

WHAT unilateral nuclear disarmament?

And total BS...
 
Here is the first study.

Minimum Wage Effects Across State Borders: Estimates Using Contiguous Counties

http://www.irle.berkeley.edu/workingpapers/157-07.pdf

The authors are

Arindrajit Dube, T. William Lester, and Michael Reich


There short creds are

Dube: Department of Economics, University of Massachusetts Amherst;

Lester: Department of City and Regional Planning of UNC Chapel Hill;

Reich:D epartment of Economics and IRLE, University of California, Berkeley.

Anything less than reading and studying the paper is meaningless.
 
Someone had to say it...and if you hadn't I sure as hell would have.:lol:

Liberals have never apologized for their many failures: welfare, unilateral nuclear disarmament, the Vietnam War, opposition to the Vietnam War, etc etc.
There is no such thing as trickle down economics, the ACA has absolutely killed jobs, and tax cuts (properly framed) did more to create jobs than Obama's stimulus.

Just saying it don't make it so. There is this thing called reality and the details called facts. You have created a mythical creature, in your mind, so you can blame someone else instead of just taking responsibility for your own actions.

Yes, and the facts and details are that the Left has been wrong about virtually everything for the last 40+ years. And never apologized for a single thing.
Just for instance, the Left consistently supported:
Stalin
Mao
Castro
Ho
The Sandinistas
Che
Chavez

Every one an opportunistic murdering dictator but successful in duping the Left.

Gee, Berkeley professors supporting the min wage. Who would have guessed?
All those studies rely on survivor bias. Go look it up.
 
The abstract for the minimum wage study reads;

Abstract—We use policy discontinuities at state borders to identify the effects of minimum wages on earnings and employment in restaurants and other low-wage sectors.Our approach generalizes the case study method by considering all local differences in minimum wage policies between 1990 and 2006. We compare all contiguous county-pairs in the United States that straddle a state border and find no adverse employment effects.We show that traditional approaches that do not account for local economic conditions tend to produce spurious negative effects due to spatial heterogeneities in employment trends that are unrelated to minimum wage policies.Our findings are robust to allowing for long-term effects of minimum wage changes.

There you go, creating an over generalized , paranoid delusional fantacy with no bearing on reality.

Do you have pictures and articles on the wall with key term circled and connected by pins and yarn?

You're really going to maintain that the Left did not favor and idolize all those assholes? Let's see you do it. I double dare you.

Because I need a laugh I want you to explain that abstract in plain English.

What a pile of crappe.:cuckoo:

Except- Sandanistas ended up being elected after Reagan, then unelected. Much better than the Pub puppet dictator and genocide...

Chavez, Caesar? Damn straight.
 
The min wage is more than 25% lower than 1968, and most of those workers get welfare and food stamps to survive. Cruel, stupid, and make for NO DEMAND.Next stop, poorhouses and potters fields. RW idiocy.
But thanks for the world depressions, the stupidest wars ever, and see sig, paragraph 1, AT LEAST TWICE, and corrupt, power mad adminstrations...Nixon, Reagan, W, Grant, Harding etc...

No,p/ It should be perfectly clear what I am telling you. You have created a fantacy that you call "the left".

Who called Stalin "Uncle Joe" AFTER he murdered 3MM children in the Ukraine?
 
Everybody. Read some history. Dems are against dictators once they're found out. Pubs love dictators until they attack us. All they care about is low taxes and low crime.
 
Simply put, the real world evidence of what happens when supply side theory or their tax policies are put into practice do not support the theory itself. It NEVER has. But it's proponents keep pushing it. But I would suggest you read the book if you're really interested. It's written for the layperson.

It actually ALWAYS works. Not sure what bullshit you've been reading. Or more likely hearing on Rachel Maddow.

You're quite mad:cuckoo::badgrin: The only thing that worked for W was a corrupt real estate bubble. Worked great....It certainly doesn't work when the rich are bloated and there's no demand from the non rich...like now.
That corrupt real estate bubble was created by carter, clinton, fanny mae and freddy mac. Dimwit caused.
