TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — "After he became Kansas governor in 2011, Sam Brownback slashed personal income taxes on the promise that the deep cuts would trigger a furious wave of hiring and expansion by businesses.

"But the "shot of adrenaline" hasn't worked as envisioned, and the state budget has been in crisis ever since. Now many of the same Republicans who helped pass Brownback's plan are in open revolt, refusing to help the governor cut spending so he can avoid rolling back any of his signature tax
measures"

In Kansas, lawmakers lose patience with governor's tax cuts


Let's take our country back, start with the Senate and the H. of Rep.

[Hutch Starskey]

Just another example of inept economic policy from Republicans. Is there any doubt now that tax cuts have no stimulative effect at all? See also Louisiana and Wisconsin for more of the same.

GOP Economic Policy Has Destroyed Kansas, Louisiana And Wisconsin; Now They Hope To Nationalize It

Let's start by cutting taxes on all Americans significantly and making congress and the govt do without.

Example of an Idiot-Gram ^^^ posted by an apparent homophobic bigot who believes s/he is clever.

Now that we've proved the why of the Idiot-Gram, let's consider the issue, cutting spending.

Q. What happens when taxes are cut and spending is reduced:

A. Personnel are cut
A. Unemployment increases
A. Spending for discretionary items slows
A. retail establishments lay off staff
A. Sales tax diminishes
A. The economy stalls
A. American becomes Kansas

Q. Who benefits from tax cuts

A. The higher earners

Q. Who are harmed by tax cuts

A. The poor, working poor and workers earning below the state or nations mean earnings

Q. Then what happens

A. More needs by government to provide food, clothing and shelter for those in need
A. Greater burdens on all Social Services
A. More homeless

Cutting spending needs to be done by responsible legislators who understand that cost-benefits and cost-deficits need to be identified; the movement toward fiscal conservatism has been based mostly on emotion, fear mongering and a complete disregard for consequences, known and unknown.

“Lower rates of taxation will stimulate economic activity and so raise the levels of personal and corporate income as to yield within a few years an increased – not a reduced – flow of revenues to the federal government.”

– John F. Kennedy, Jan. 17, 1963, annual budget message to the Congress, fiscal year 1964

“In today’s economy, fiscal prudence and responsibility call for tax reduction even if it temporarily enlarges the federal deficit – why reducing taxes is the best way open to us to increase revenues.”

– John F. Kennedy, Jan. 21, 1963, annual message to the Congress: “The Economic Report Of The President”


“It is no contradiction – the most important single thing we can do to stimulate investment in today’s economy is to raise consumption by major reduction of individual income tax rates.”

– John F. Kennedy, Jan. 21, 1963, annual message to the Congress: “The Economic Report Of The President”


“Our tax system still siphons out of the private economy too large a share of personal and business purchasing power and reduces the incentive for risk, investment and effort – thereby aborting our recoveries and stifling our national growth rate.”

– John F. Kennedy, Jan. 24, 1963, message to Congress on tax reduction and reform, House Doc. 43, 88th Congress, 1st Session.

We are fast approaching $20 trillion in debt, what exactly did we get for all that money?

 

[Iceweasel]

State income taxes are obscene. They keep trying to pass one here. If you government relies on ripping off the citizenry then the government is corrupt.

Great work, Freddo

Wry wants a government of the people, by the people and for the people; not representatives whose job depends on bribes from the power elite (mostly which disadvantage the many) and voting to toe the line to keep their job.

Wry wants fiscal responsibility to replace austerity / fiscal conservatism, since the former will create jobs and the latter increases unemployment and has yet to prove the ability to reduce the deficit.

Wry wants a Constitutional Amendment to provide POTUS the line-item veto (each blue lined item would be reviewable by The Congress and replaced by a 2/3 vote in both chambers).

Wry is sure CrusaderFrank is brain damaged and would like to see a CT scan of the black hole between his ears.

Coffin makers did quite well.

Is there any doubt now that tax cuts have no stimulative effect at all?

You mean other than all the times it's worked?

State income taxes are obscene. They keep trying to pass one here. If you government relies on ripping off the citizenry then the government is corrupt.

Homeless sleeping on the streets of major cities is obscene, children without enough to eat is obscene, the murders at Sandy Hook were obscene. Lead in the water in an American City is obscene, but taxes, well no one likes them, but they can be used to mitigate some obscenities.

The last time the lowlife filth liberals tried to pass an income tax in Washington State over 60% of the people told them to go fuck themselves. The day one passes my house goes on the market and I'm outa here and I'll take my money with me and flip Seattle the bird on my way out.

Of course you don't mean the Bush/Cheney tax cuts in "01 and '03!

Blaming all that on hard working citizens is obscene. And scrap the shit off your eyes, I said income tax, not taxes. We are funded by sales tax like most non-income tax states.

Sandy hook and lead in the water was an income problem? Retard!

Obama gave Baltimore nearly $1 billion dollars, guess who got all the money? Not the poor, it went right into the pockets of the Democrat's union donors.

Kansas voted and they're trying an experiment to reduce government. They don't want to end up like Flint, Detroit, Chicago, Cuba, Greece, Venezuela and every other place that's tried your failed economic ideas

Obama supporter wants fiscal responsibility. Then you wonder why we call you Freddo

You see how stupid it sounds that you support Obama and want "Fiscal Responsibility" right, Freddo?
