A top economist believes,Trumps tax bill will help the economy

[Proteus_MST]

You are being ridiculous. Claiming that cutting taxes causes economic growth is about the most sound judgement you can make with economics. No one is selling snake oil. Stop hacking.

The question is not whether a tax cuts can promote ecnomic growth.
Rather

• How long term is the economic growth (economists think rather short term)
• How large (Most economists think that the pedictions of the GOP on this are widely exaggerated)
• Will the increase in taxes (due to economic growth) be equal/larger than the increase in the amount of interest that the USA have to pay (due to having to borrow more money in order to finance the taxt cuts) (economists don't think so)

Which is why both questions in the survey don't ask about the next year after the tax bill, but rather about the state oof te USA 10 years after the tax bill

Mkay I don't read vox. You are misleading.

At the top of the last page I posted a link to the page of the survey itself (together with all economists who answered the survey, their credentials as well as their notes regarding the questions, if any) ... more than this level of pure unaltered information no news site can provide you

I guess that the sites that you consider to be "real news sites" (which AFAIK only are Fox News and Breitbart) don't have an article regarding the survey ...
after all it sheds a bad liht on the GOPs tax plans and therefore doesn't fit into their mission statement to be Trumps propaganda media

yeah, why let facts get in the way when you can just read Breitbart.

I see a link to vox again. Nice try.

Obviously you don't look thoroughly enough ... which is fascinating, considering that the posting with my link is just above a posting of yours

Ok so the vox link was at the place you told me to look. So your mistake and then you act like I can't follow directions. Am I debating Hillary Clinton or what?


So looking at the actual answers I see many "did not answers" and "uncertain."

You started a thread with a certain title. You have been very dishonest. Of course I expect that from people who insist upon vox.

Unlike the trailer park trash that swear by breitbart.

My point still stands ... one of the top economists thinks that the bill will help the economy.
1/3 of the top economists cannot say (because they need more informations) and the other 2/3s opinions are negative or very negative.

[Kidlicious]

No it doesn't. They didn't even ask that question and you didn't say anything about people not disagreeing. Sad.

Very funny male feminist pig.

Please tell me why I should talk to you about economics when you don't know the difference between fiscal policy for a tiny state like Kansas and the federal government.

You made an unsupported and truly ignorant claim about tax cuts suppisedly always being good for the economy. Naturally, as always, you now pretebd that didn't happen and keep running your mouth like an ignorant fool.

Also we haven't even gotten to the fact that $2 trillion in new borrowing (Republicans are lying about it being "only" $1.5 trillion) will suck up so much capital interest rates will spike and the real economy will lag. Stagflation is a real fear.

If they were serious about tax cuts for the rich withput exploding the deficit they would need $2 trillion in spending cuts. Of course, cutting $2 trillion in spending would be so deflationary we would go right back into recession. In short, there is no way the current Republican policies can be good economics. Thus why every actual economist has said it is bad.

No it doesn't. They didn't even ask that question and you didn't say anything about people not disagreeing. Sad.

Considering that the GDP is an indicator for the well-being of a countries economy,
then the assumption that the GDP in 10 years won't be substantially higher than now, is equal to the assumption that the tax bill won't have helped economy.

And 2/3 of the economists disagree or even strongly disagree that, if the tax bill is introduced, the GDP in 10 years will be substantially higher than now.
So, the tax bill in the end obviously doesn't help economy

I have already told you. The one who was for it changed his vote and said he had misread it. No actual economists supported it.
