The fact that you think it is - and that I'm obligated to answer your stupid questions just because you pose them - suggests that modern society does protect some useless members, for example, you. I'm o.k. with that, despite the fact that your greatest talent is trolling.lovable liberalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15616294696912710046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8167210975362071658.post-60612693330083585252008-10-21T23:17:00.000-04:002008-10-21T23:17:00.000-04:00Okay one question.

Sure you do.<BR/><BR/>Trickle down economics doesn't work for all of us. It works for those who piss on the rest. Under Republican policies for the last 30 years, the rich have gotten vastly richer, the poor have gotten poorer, and the middle class has shrunk with its income stagnant. You could look it up.<BR/><BR/>On the other hand, the period in U.S. of strongest growth was also a period of, frankly, confiscatory marginal tax rates. I'm not saying that's the cause, but it didn't kill the engine of productivity.<BR/><BR/>You think progressive taxation is socialist. I guess Adam Smith, the goddamn founder of modern capitalist economics, <A HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Progressive_tax#History_of_intellectual_debate" REL="nofollow">was a socialist, too</A>.<BR/><BR/>At worst, I'm splitting 5% of America into a separate tax category from the other 95%. To hear the howling and mewling from wingnuts like you, it'll be the end of the world. You know it won't. Mostly, the very rich like John and Cindy McCain will have to satisfy themselves with only eleven houses and not an even dozen. Boo hoo.<BR/><BR/>So, anonymous, do you make $250,000 a year or more? And you never received any benefits from the government? How about your parents?lovable liberalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15616294696912710046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8167210975362071658.post-24982647159239870992008-10-21T13:58:00.000-04:002008-10-21T13:58:00.000-04:00Ah, the land of opportunity, where anyone can live...Ah, the land of opportunity, where anyone can live the American dream, except people like you who want it given to them instead of working their butts off to get it. Heres a great idea to stimulate the economy: lets tax the crap out of those that employee the lower income, so they in turn have to lay off those very same people the messiah is trying to save! I guess its not fair that those of us who have made something of oursleves, earned a decent income, SAVED WISELY, should reap the benefits of OUR hard work. Instead, lets just distribute all of OUR hard earned money to those that feel they deserve it. Do you not understand that is the basis of Socialism!?! You are not uniting america, you are splitting it right down the middle.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8167210975362071658.post-53406916340084059742008-10-20T23:36:00.000-04:002008-10-20T23:36:00.000-04:00Still falling far short of a coherent statement. ...Still falling far short of a coherent statement.
