While Steve Forbes defended the great economic booms of the republican eras, Ben Stein declared thatthe way ahead for the future of the U.S. is to begin and continue taxing the upper 10% of America more and more (unfairly) because they can afford it. Stein's economic philosophy clearly echoes the socialist party's and DNC's blueprint of wealth re-distribution rather than everyone paying their own FAIR share while finding ways to cut back on pork-barrel/wasteful goverment spending!
Instead of stopping the illegal invading army of Mexicans and OTMs from stealing MILLIONS from our economy through 'free' medical care and other social programs (that are supposed to be for Americans rather than criminals/illegals) etc. Stein and the DNC's solution is to milk/punish Americans by taking from them far more than their fair share in taxes. What is the incentive in this country to succeed anymore if your 'prize' is only top have the federal goverment digging deep into your pockets in order to pay for Kerry's 'Big Dig', the Dem's/GOP's embrace of illegals/criminals by the selling out/off of our nation, and making this entire nation a 'Welfare' Nation!??
How about we stop giving nations who hate us, scheme against us, and support the terrorists, especially those who have attacked us, BILLIONS in free money.
4 words: The Fair Tax plan!
If our leaders REALLY wanted to find a way to generate and collect revenue fairly, they would seriosuly be looking at the Fair tax program/plan. Most politicians are not interested in that, though, and can see no further than embracing the socialist program of Wealth re-distibution!
The GOP, TWICE now, has proven that reducing taxes (Reagan & now Bush) generates low unemployment rates, higher tax revenue that ever expected, and booming economies. (Yes, the GOP also proved that no matter if it is the Democrats or GOP who spend like a drunken sailor - especially in the midst of a 2-front world war [on terrorism], even in the midst of such a good economy, the deficit will sky rocket!)
According to Ben Stein, the answer is to get rid of the tax cuts and to increase them on the rich. Everytime the democrats do this, however, the economy goes into a recession, as Forbes pointed out. forbes also pointed out that if the 'rich' business owners and companies get hit with higher taxes, they have to cut jobs/employees, make cutbacks, which negatively affect the un-employment rate and the economy.
