cutting the top tax rate aka trickle down economics
« on: October 03, 2016, 04:35:15 PM »
dems say tde is bad

republicans say tde is good

not sure if these facts are100% accurate but here they are
income growth declined
job creation declined
economic growth declined

so all this sounds very bad for the repubs

this is pure correlation of bad results with top tax rate cuts

correlation= causation , only works when there arent so many variables like inflation immagration gov spending ect all not being thrown into the equation. other wise correlation=superstion

all trump has to do is argue these points

usually logic works best because if you go and jack up your bosses tax rate hes surely going to have to make adjustments in response to a tax hike such as laying off workers and not hiring and wages may go down. things never look good when you bite the hand that feeds.

a democrat will even agree but then cite off the correlation of tax cuts to the rich only hurt economic growth

whoever cannot argue this point home to the core loses. you dont win an argument citing correlations. all the factors n variables at play must be spelled out in order to prove tde works or does not work

its not that hard of a task but it needs to be done in order to be certain about this issue

correlation equals causation when we are talking about how too much bread causes lower back pain and using one teaspoon of epsom salt per day cures the pain. bodybuildin related

tde is, I believe, most associated with Reagan.  Unless you combine tde with spending cuts, then it doesn't work.

Our government is so crooked and inefficient that they always end up needing to steal more money from the taxpayer, be they rich or middle class.

When the entire economy goes tits up(and it will) the politicians will blame capitalism and not their own greed and idiotic mismanagement.

Then we will transition from subtle oppression to full-on, in your face oppression.  Good luck everyone.
