I haven't lost anything. I don't care about a silly campaign promise that was obviously not going to be kept.
Ok, sure, whatever.
Okay, good. And where does money in the stock market go?
Good question. I'm no economist, but I'd guess it cycles around the market, influences the amount of capital businesses have available, and goes back to investors. Wherever its going, it doesn't seem to be creating enough demand to support more jobs.
How is this opinion relevant?
This appears to be a premise that the stock market is doing well, some hyperbole restating that fact, and an assertion that pumping more money into the market will not improve the economy. I have no idea how that could possibly be relevant to the position that the government can improve the economy by funneling even more money towards investors.
Um, I don't know which Great Recession you're talking about that was caused by "all the good places getting filled resulting in ****ty investments." Care to point out which one that is?
Must be talking about the Great Recession of 2719BC, because there certainly hasn't been any recessions in recent history caused by ****ty investments inflating bubbles that've popped and staggered the whole economy.
What is Government demand?
Who knows what that mysterious phrase means? If only one of us was familiar with the concept of demand, we could deduce how it could be created by the government. Oh well, I guess we'll just have to sit back and marvel at the intellectual prowess of those who meet the insurmountable prerequisites of high school economics.
What? You said cutting taxes hurts the economy because the Government has less to spend. Government spending is not limited by tax revenues.
Your opinion is somehow very compelling despite being unsupported by the evidence and directly contradicted by a cursory understanding of the topic. I have no choice but to concede that there is absolutely no relation between tax revenues and government spending. I'll let you spread the word to the Tea Party.
Again, don't understand the relevance.
There is no relevance. Saying that we should ignore deficit spending in our discussion of revenue/spending is completely irrelevant to our discussion of revenue/spending.
