Obviously corporations need money to grow and compete internationally the more money that is stolen from them the more they are impeded in their primary mission 1+1 = 2
And from where do businesses get the money to grow and compete? Revenues. And what do taxes on profit have to do with revenues? Nothing.
The Bush tax cuts in 2001 forced Ohio to cut funding in 2002?
If there are no profits, what money is left over for investment and growth?
Do taxes on profit reduce investable funds?
Bush cut income taxes for all.
Funny you say that. What was the result of this "generous" tax cut for all? The middle and lower classes went into debt and drained their savings while the wealthy increased their savings, but didn't spend more. So what did the tax cut accomplish other than manufacturing deficits and transferring wealth to the top? Nothing.
Which excise taxes did Bush raise?
None. He just shifted that burden to the states. That strategy didn't work as those states then had to get aid in 2009 in order to balance their budgets following the Economic Collapse.
Obama raised taxes and had bigger deficits and shittier GDP growth.
Obama and Bush had the same growth rate - 1.76%. The only difference is that Bush lost net 460,000 private sector jobs after 8 years, and Obama created over 11,000,000 net private sector jobs. Bush handed Obama a trillion-dollar deficit which Obama reduced down to about $400B, a 60% reduction. Only two Presidents over the last 37 years have left office with a deficit lower than the one they inherited. Both those Presidents were Democrats. Republicans, on the other hand, doubled the deficit during Reagan and Bush the Elder, then erased a surplus during Bush the Dumber and produced four record deficits in 8 years.
The Bush tax cuts in 2001 forced Ohio to cut funding in 2002?
Yes, because federal revenues dropped significantly, which meant the amount the feds sent to the states was reduced. This resulted in deficits in the states, so those states cut spending -primarily from education- which forced public schools to raise tuitions. All income tax cuts do is shift the burden onto the middle and lower classes. To fix that burden, Conservatives propose cutting taxes further, which just repeats the loop. So we spiral down a debt hole on a Public and individual basis, all so some rich person can get a tax cut they stash in banks in socialist countries like Switzerland, don't spend it in our economy like we were promised they would, and instead use it to lobby politicians here to preserve the status quo on rates or even reduce it. Or get special loopholes like for car elevators.
Obviously they do if there is enough support for it. Why is this so confusing for you isn't there anybody you can ask to explain it to you?but they don't promote smaller government and balanced budgets do they?A politician is supposed to care about keeping his job that way he can continue to promote things that are important to him and his constituents you've already learned that libertarians stand only on principle and as a result are totally impotent. How many times do you have to learn this?Republicans and Democrats are politicians who logically figure it is smarter to stay in the middle where elections are decided and thus live to fight another day. Libertarians for example, are pure and stand only on principles and as a result they are very very impotent.hopefully you're beginning to understand this very very simple concept now?so republicans are spineless and their so called principles mean nothing to them
like I said they care more about keeping their jobs and ringing up deficits and expanding government than they do about their so called small government principles
if a politician runs on a small government platform and wins then there obviously is enough support for it
you really like to make excuses for politiciansif a politician runs on a small government platform and wins then there obviously is enough support for it
elections are decided by flip floppers in middle. For example, last election it was safe to say, small govt- repeal Obamacare because flip floppers were on board. 3 months later Obamacare is more popular than ever leaving Republicans with a problem. Simple enough for you??
You idiot you are talking fucking Kansas, what part dont you get in your head?
The part where McConnell and Brownback said that what they did in Kansas is what they want to do everywhere.
God damn, go ahead and raise taxes.. Then all your going to do is cry where I'd the jobs, where is the revenue idiot[Don't be silly Ireland dropped its tax rate to 11% and most of the worlds major corporations moved there in whole or in part. Do you want to tell Ireland that the corporations that movd there really didn't move there and that it's all a mirage of some sort?
We aren't talking about Ireland, we are talking about the Bush Tax Cuts. And how does Ireland's tax rate help businesses create jobs in the US? The answer is that it doesn't.
Ireland's low tax rate helped create jobs in Ireland
It did? What jobs were those? The companies didn't move production to Ireland. They moved their accounting there. How many jobs did that create? None.
Corporations should not be taxed at all since it interferes with their primary mission which is to raise our standard of living at the fastest possible rate
No, their primary mission is to make profit. They don't care about the standard of living. If they did, they wouldn't move labor to nations where foreign workers earn in a day what American workers earn in an hour.
Actually we live in a democracy therefore politicians can't do what there is no support to do. Do you understand?you really like to make excuses for politiciansif a politician runs on a small government platform and wins then there obviously is enough support for it

Stupid of course the pure beauty of capitalism is that the only way you make profit is by raising the standard of living at the fastest rate possible. Try going into business with the objective of making a profit more important than the objective of pleasing your customers and see how well you doCorporations should not be taxed at all since it interferes with their primary mission which is to raise our standard of living at the fastest possible rate

for 5th time, politicians cant do what there is not enough support to do. Do you understand?
the only support needed is enough to pass a vote in congress and get a signature by the president
because as I said we live in a republic
