Quoted from the article
"When you restore the Reagan-Wilson 11% tax bracket," Angelides says, that raises $2.4 billion in one year and affects roughly 1% of the population. The "same 1% gets $12.76 billion worth of federal tax cuts this year," by Angelides' accounting.
I say raise taxes on the wealthy. They can afford it the most.Comment

Why don't we just suspend government while you are at it? What are you? An anarchist? We can't cut into basic services. There is so much excess fat that has been cut.Originally posted by Lawrence of Arabia

Raising taxes on the weathly would be the stupidest thing to do.For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night. This is the violence of institutions -- indifference, inaction, and decay. This is the violence that afflicts the poor, that poisons relations between men because their skin has different colors. - Bobby Kennedy (Mindless Menance of Violence)Comment

Fez is being a dumbass, as usual.
if low taxes give economic prosperity then why did we have such a powerful economy in the 50's when the highest tax bracket payed something like 70% in taxes. STFU before we shove you out of a helicopter over Cuba.

Keynes' ideas helped get the US out of the Great Depression, he was a genius, and proved that Supply-side economics doesn't work. If you disagree with him then BACK IT UP, untill then you are just BSing and trolling.Originally posted by Giancarlo

The new deal did little to help.

They are for illegal immigration and drug abuse... doesn't sound free market to me. Free market comes with a branch of morality.
You're such a dunce!
But remember when Clinton raised taxes on the wealthy and raised the minimum wage. Republicans predicted economic collapse--but instead we got the longest sustained growth in the history of the U.S.
Now imagine how much greater that growth could have been without those actions. I don't think a dot-com boom had anything to do with higher taxes and minimum wage 
.

Why did we have higher economic prosperity during the 60s when taxes were cut substantially by Kennedy?
Keynes would be flogging you if he was here.
No he wouldn't. Keynes would have no problem with cutting taxes on the wealthiest. As long as there was some deficit spending priming the pump and they were to pump up the demand side, it'd be good.“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

what i want to know is that are tax cuts counted towards a government deficit, or is it just a transfer payment.
id think its a transfer paymenet, so that means that a deficit brought on by tax cut wouldnt really be priming the pump would it."Everything for the State, nothing against the State, nothing outside the State" - Benito MussoliniComment
