The "Job Creators" Fantasy Is A Malignant Myth The Rich Use To Squeeze The Working Class

[harmonica]

The job creators are job destroyers when the bottom line is at stake. Downsizing is the go-to method to temporarily get profits back up. We never fund the job creators more than when they are throwing jobs in the trash. Fuck them, fund the prosperity creators: Education, health care and infrastructure.

you fkd up--again--we DO spend on education--more than others!!!
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

The US spends more on education than any other country, but students lag behind academically. Here's how much other countries spend and how well their students perform.

Here's how the US compares to other countries like Norway and South Korea when it comes to education spending and performance.

if people are struggling, most of the time it's because they are stupid and lazy

 

[Mac-7]

No. The answer is employers paying living wages.

Private employers can only pay as much as the labor is worth

no employer can afford to pay the same high wage to every employee

We’ve had “the best economy in the world” since WW II. Republicans have been trying to dismantle it since Reagan

You state nonsense and then don't even try to prove it?! How has the GOP been trying? They are more pro-economy than democrats. Now the dems have their "green new deal" bullshit to hurt the economy.
Your posts are nothing but partisan food fights with no substance.
How about a few facts to prove your bullshit???

The "job creator" fantasy is a malignant, but persistent myth that the corporate class and their power-suited courtiers use to squeeze the working class and extract their wealth.

Correct – particularly with regard to tax cuts for corporations.

Corporations use the windfall from tax cuts to inflate profits and reward shareholders, not to ‘invest’ in workers or ‘create jobs.’

 

[HenryBHough]

In the perfect Liberal world no citizen (read "party member") would ever have to work.

The party would own the means of production, distributing the goods to the citizens according to their social credit scores. It would be illegal to engage in "private transactions". If you were tired of your TV you would simply return it to the government (party) supplier and, if your social credit score were high enough, you'd be issued a new bigger (though not necessarily better) one. There would be no "homelessness". Every citizen would be assigned living space according to, yes, their social score.

But who would do the farming? The manufacturing? The food processing?

Simple. non-citizens (those who refuse to join the party). Living in dormitories. Fed appropriately for their minimum health maintenance requirements as prescribed by.....the party. A breeding program will ensure that intellect is bred out and no genes that might lead to leadership aspirations are deleted.

Oh, the current Democrat leadership will remain in control. As they reach their use-by dates they will be replaced by their offspring. Without regard to race or colour.

Of course the prime requisite for party membership would be exclusion of any Caucasian ancestry extending back four generations.

A population of happy people of every race, every color! All living in perfect harmony under the loving care (boot heel) of a Liberal Elite!


It'll all start with a virus.


Oh wait.........

if people are struggling, most of the time it's because they are stupid and lazy

This is the primary lie that Republicans like to tell you. That people are poor because they make bad decisions, or that they're lazy, or drug addicted.

You have people who are working 2 jobs and a total of 60 hours per work, just to keep a roof over their heads and food on the table, and you call them "stupid and lazy". Well if they're working 60 hours a week, they most certainly are not lazy, are they?

I've been comfortably middle class and I've been poor and middle class is a much easier life - and the difference was entirely based on income. When I my income didn't meet my expenses, it was very stressful. If you can pay your utility bill by this discount date, it saves you a couple of dollars a month. That may not seem like much, but when every dollar is hard to find, it's just an added stress. Which bills to pay first, who can wait. You see something on sale you need but you have neither the cash or credit to take advantage of those savings so you end up paying more for things, as a result.

Studies have found that poor people are simply exhausted and overwhelmed by the sheer volume of decisions they have to make on a day to day basis just to provide the basics for themselves and their families. People aren't "stupid or lazy". The system is designed to keep them poor and needy. If they get too comfortable, they won't want to work.

The stupidity of that remark is shocking. Why don't rich people stop working when they get rich? They don't need to work. Why do the middle class keep striving when they no longer need to do so? The idea that if you give poor people money, they will refuse to work is just as stupid.

And calling people who are working 2 and 3 jobs just to take care of their families "lazy" is just asinine.

The job creators aren't really that good at creating jobs are they?

And yet no poor day laborer ever gave a person a job.

How did you go from middle class to poor? Kicked out of your parents house?

 

[Blues Man]

No. The answer is employers paying living wages.

Tax billionaires at 70% on earnings over 10 million a year. Most billionaires have effective tax rates lower than Walmart employees.

Tax companies at realistic rates. No company with a billion dollar profit margin should pay $0.00 in taxes.

Billionaires don't have earnings.

Hell you don't have to be a billionaire to pay no income taxes.

My wife and I are living off of our investments We have no debt at all so we only need to cover our living expenses and the things we do for fun

I will pay $0 income tax because after our personal deductions I will be in the 0 bracket

 

[Crepitus]

No...no one pays for it. The costs are deferred, and the currency inflated. That's the point

Wrong. It's right there in the bill.

 

[Gabe Lackmann]

Wrong. It's right there in the bill.

At least the halfwit Dragonlady brought links...................none of which helped her lies. I guess she didn't think anyone would actually look at them.

Notice she ignored my post showing her to be a lying sack of shit on the rich not paying much in taxes.

 

[Crepitus]

So what's fair? Id have to look it up again to get the exact numbers but the top 10% of earners in the country pay like 80% of the total taxes. Now is that because they make 80% of the money? Maybe but I dont think that's the case with our progressive tax system. 50% of the earners in the country pay zero or are a net positive, so the "fair share" argument certainly isnt based on I make this percentage of the total so therefore I pay this percentage of the tax bill. The reality is there's a point where it doesnt make sense to do the work to make the money if the government is just going to take the majority of it.

Actually the top ten percent Have more like 99% of the money, and the top 1% account for more than 70% all by themselves.

But that's not even the issue. The problem is the rates. I made about $150,000 last year and my effective tax rate was 31%.

Bill gates paid about 15%.

He paid more money in absolute terms, but I gave more of what I made than he did.

And even if he paid the same rate it would effect him much less than it does me.

Or you.

There are university studies, economic think tank reports, and economic data and charts in all pieces I quote and you didn't bother to read, FuckBoi.

You keep calling me a liar, and I keep proving that it's you who are lying, you lazy, uneducated piece of shit. Why aren't you working? Why are here night and day, proving your stupidity and ignorance to the world?

You don't link to anything. You don't read any links. You just sit at your computer flinging your monkey shit at the humans passing by.

Higher taxes for the rich edge closer as Democrats pass $3.5 trillion budget outline

Democrats' budget plan is scant on detail, but would likely raise taxes on wages and reform capital-gains taxes for the wealthy, experts say.
