Dems need to stop explaining themselves to Republicans. All they have to say is "Massive tax cuts for the wealthy and hyper-deregulation = American economy ca. 2009." It's cute though to see any Republican try and tell someone else about economics. Exactly. Dems need to stop explaining themselves to Republicans.

Just what this economy needs…" Ummm.... This massive growth in income happened in the past, so if your theory is correct (The Rich getting richer increases employment.) then we wouldn't be in such a mess. This is evidence that your political philosophy is flawed. SaveFarris says: “They’ll be able to hire a lot less people, that’s for d*mn sure. Just what this economy needs…”

What the hell do you think the government does with the tax money? Yep, hires more people. Seems to me that if the goal is to get people employed (and it is only one) then MORE taxes not less are prescribed.

More money offshored = no jobs created. Why does anyone think that high-end tax cuts create jobs if the people getting he free ride hoard it all?
