So it would seem the Progressive Machine has got some soldiers pushing press releases.
Is the expectation people won't realize these studies are funded by the likes of George Soros' Open Society Institute, and thus have an extreme bias and agenda attached to them, or are they purely for the consumption of the Progressive Believers, and are talking points to fuel the propaganda effort?
Actually right now we just want employers to give their employees more raises. Right now they are socking away their increased profits because the tax laws allow are so favorable that they can't resist it. It is unsustainable.
No, just another Progressive moron.
The World is filled with them for some reason. The increased disparity shows that pretty clearly.
yea because we all know that the economy is a zero sum game....
Clinton raised taxes on the wealthy, no Republican voted for it and they said it would ruin the economy.
I'm afraid you don't get it. The "pool of available money to be made" is never dwindling.
Every consumer, rich or poor, is in part responsible for creating jobs......Ok, tell us how many times a poor person gave you job.
I got tired of this propaganda about 25 years ago. It was bogus then, it is more bogus now.
In fact, this has been the mantra of Communists, socialists, social democrats and the entire left side of the spectrum since the first lazy bastard decided he shouldn't have to work.
What they don't tell you is the numbers are skewed all over the place, there is no agreed on definition of what constitutes "poor" and they usually compare wealth with income, ignore the fact the mysterious 1% pay 90% of the tax burden, and that today's poor have 50" screens.
Look, one way this number almost goes away is a simple thing. Stop the flow of 1,300 a day or so of "poor" illegals from flooding the low end of the job pool. Incomes for the lowest end will rise as will wages.
oh wait--- this isn't satire?
So you agree that raising taxes doesn't stifle economic growth? That's all I wanted to know.

So lowering tax for middle class would make them poorer? Higher tax on the rich. That is what Obama was proposing?
The rich depend upon government to make them rich and protect it. Where would Jeff Bezos be today if the government didn't create the internet?what lefties want is more and more middle class voting for more and more government. and this happens when the middle class are prevented from understanding the cost of government handouts. Taxing the rich more while cutting taxes on the middle class, encourages the Middle class to want more and more goodies since they don't pay for it

countless tribal societies disagree with you.

Hmm, so the rich are lefities. Interesting. I learn something from you most every time you post.
wow, you pretend to counter my claim that rich people have always existed by saying there are societies that don't have wealthy people. that does not counter my claim.
You think there are not wealth disparities in tribal societies?
