The two are mutually exclusive. in fact they aren't related in anyway short of a logical fallacySo let me get this straight. More money in the rich hands make more jobs. We have never seen the level of inequality we see now.
That is because many pulled their money out of the market and put it in safer modes of investment like CD's etc ... while can help the economy a little.Their wealth exploded during the time of the "recession" and yet job growth has been ****.... Underemployment is incredibly high.
So they "create jobs"? What jobs? They dont create jobs, they just get more greedy. They outsource jobs. They become more greedy. They dont "reinvest", in the oringal term. Hell, look at Kansas. Kansas did the textbook policy of "trickle down"... Didnt turn out the way they wanted. The people with the wealth increased their wealth, didnt "reinvest" it, they hoarded the wealth. You call this "success", I call it a plutocrats dream.
I would disagree. The history of America has always been that those who have benefited the most pay back more.
Money is being redistributed upwards at an alarming rate due to Govt. policies. Why doesn't Govt. have the duty to slow it down? It is unsustainable. Even if we didn't need the money we would be foolish not to.
Tell me how any of them would have gotten rich without a healthy middle class to buy their products? You make too much of the 1%, we all admire them but they will always be there at the top of the heap. It's the 90% we need to be concerned about, they are the ones hurting. I bet most of those names you mentioned would agree.
Its funny that you didn't say that when Reagan made those huge tax cuts to the upper brackets. Reagan promised that by helping the wealthy the wealth would trickle down to all of us. Isn't that wealth redistribution?
Those that fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it. No truer words were ever said.
Were not talking about tax cuts for anyone...Obama is talking about tax increases.
So how does removing this money , even if it is only rich peoples money, benefit anyone?....
No he isn't. He's talking about switching tax cuts that benefit the wealthiest for tax cuts that benefit the middle class.
No he isn't. He's talking about switching tax cuts that benefit the wealthiest for tax cuts that benefit the middle class.
The wealthy already pay almost all the taxes as it is. Its sheer class warfare. Its also pure politics because he already knows the Congress won't pass it. Its all rhetoric for the consumption of his braindead robot goosestepping followers.
So you have no problem, I already knew that, of taking someone else's wealth and giving it to others rather than letting people spend their own money? Are you as generous with what you have and if so what makes you different than those evil rich people?
Obama's own numbers show this will generate as a projection 32 billion a year for 10 years which is a drop in the bucket thus serves no real purpose other than continuation of class warfare that this President is promoting.
Have no noticed that liberals never respond to the question as to how rich people have prevented them from becoming one of those that they want to punish? Have you noticed that liberals always seem to promote the false accusation that rich people take opportunity away from the poor ignoring that the economic pie continues to get bigger thus having room for others? Have you noticed that liberals ignore that it isn't the Federal Government's role to handle state and local social problems?

Yes Con.....with people of your ilk....its always "Income redistribution" when tax cuts benefit the middle class/working class....but its "letting rich people keep more of their money" when it benefits the wealthy.....we already know.

LOL....yeah riiiiiiight. This is "class warfare" but tax cuts that overwhelmingly benefit the top 5% is not. Gotcha!
OH B.S......the weathiest have every tax shelter and know every trick in the book to avoid paying taxes. How is it that a multi-billionaire dollar company like GE pays zero taxes?
Why shouldn't the people who pay the most in taxes get the biggest benefit? Are you ever going to respond to the questions posed?

Having among the highest taxes in the nation certainly hasn't helped your state solve the poverty problems. Why is that?
You shifted from personal taxes to corporate taxes. Dishonest tactic. Typical Democrat.
As for tax shelters. They are legal, not a trick. Also, Republicans many times have offered a compromise on closing such loopholes in exchange for overall tax reductions, and your party rejects it every time. So that such shelters still exist, your party is to blame for that too.
Why is cutting taxes on the working/middle class "Class Warfare"....yet cutting taxes on the wealthy "Allowing them to keep more of their hard earned money". Seems to me if you label one "class warfare" it certainly applies to the other as well. I guess not in your warped world.
do you know why? because of investment. I make far more than I spend even with the outrageous taxes I pay. so I invest half my income each year. and yes, each year I am generally wealthier than I was the year before
why do I have a duty to pay more taxes when I already pay far far more than what I use
I didn't say they were illegal....but don't try to claim that the poor billionaires are paying all the taxes when you know for a fact that they avoid paying taxes by laundering their money in Cayman Island banks and other tax shelters.
LOL, I have no problem with cutting taxes for the Middle Class, where did you get that idea? Still waiting for an answer to the questions posted
LOL....I'll take California's record vs. Texas any day of the week. California certainly has its problems, but Texas leads the nation in minimum wage jobs and is at the bottom or near the bottom in education and healthcare. Texas never saw a handout to a corporation that it didn't love....billions for the billionaires, minimum wage for the masses....welcome to Texas.
Where is your proof that billionaires are that significant of a factor in govt. revenue and are laundering their money in the Cayman Islands?
