Tax cuts are LONG TERM fixes, not short term fixes. They take time and that's what's being whined about. People want their microwave solution that will fall apart at the first sign of trouble, instead of waiting while the slow cooker solution brings about real long term, sustainable results. Like the Reagan tax cuts that gave us both the 1st Bush and Clinton economies. YEs, I know you have 4.098 links to people who will tell you differently, but the fact is that tax cuts help the economy WHEN THEY ARE ALLOWED TO STAY IN PLACE LONG ENOUGH TO HAVE FULL EFFECT.
Except Reagan INCREASED taxes and or fees for 7 of the 8 years he was in office. He turned a creditor nation into a debtor one. :doh
Playing fast and loose with the safeguards on stockmarket and banking regulations got us the BushI, Clinton and finally BushII economies with a HUGE collapse in the world's economy...
Yeah let's not listen to economists- let's listen to politicians... eace
