THE ERA OF TRUMP

[Smitty-48]

This only has to do with small corporations, large multinationals float off in their own little tax free world, it's the small corporations who create job growth, and it's the small corporations which pay the taxes, but lowering corporate taxes, and then raising the price of energy to make up the difference, would be a wash, what they saved on tax, they would lose on energy rates, cancelling any benefits out, in terms of hiring more people.

Small corporations competing with the big corporations benefit from cutting corporate taxes and it will make it easier for them to compete with bigger corporations. They get to pay less in comparison to their competition than they used to, which levels the playing field. Grumpycatface will ignore this post so he can pretend a corporate tax cut does nothing but help big corporations.

Just watch how we roll, my friend. They aren't opening up a $trillion hole in the budget without taking it from the lower class.

I've watched this game be played my entire life.

Earlier in this thread I wondered how 51% actually believe this hogwash. (I thought Capps might be one but he was just nibbling the margins.) I guess half of us simply prefer an aristocracy.

Where did you get the idea that 51% of people believe in tax cuts?

On a related note:

Belief is primarily tied to religion, with 88 percent of Christians, 95 percent of evangelical Christians and 94 percent of those who attend weekly religious services of any sort saying they believe in angels.

That's besides my point.

They'll cut taxes on the little guy last, so if the little guy wants tax cuts, which he does, he will have to support tax cuts across the board, which, on the agregate, he does, otherwise the GOP wouldn't exist, so it's not that the little guy is particularly happy that the big guys get a tax cut, he simply knows that tax cuts trickle down, and if it doesn't happen at the top, it ain't gonna happen at the bottom, so lesser of two evils; tax cuts for everybody.

Liberals try to have their cake and eat it too, "just tax the rich and nobody else", but what the little guy knows is a) taxing the rich would not provide enough revenue to feed the insatiable liberal "do gooderism" based on "feel gooderism", and b) the rich will end up skating and it will be the little guy who ends up footing the bill on his own, so better in the end, to try to get the same deal as the rich get, by supporting tax cuts at any cost, and to hell with the liberals and their "do gooderism".

If it's not 'liberal do-gooderism', then it's more conservative MIC sugar. Pick your poison, the result is the same.

Taxes will NEVER go down in any meaningful way. That's the nature of the beast. Doesn't matter what the fuck you do, unless you're going full revolution.

Couldn't have put it better myself.

The MIC is liberal do gooderism "free the slaves everywhere by Terrible Swift Sword" as a "Jobs Program", the MIC is totally reliant on liberal do gooderism, the impulse from the Right is actually isolationist "fuck the slaves, we didn't enslave those slaves, we freed our slaves, mission accomplished", the MIC is a product of the New Dealers, it emanates from the Left, the peacenik wing of the Left, the proverbial Copperheads and Doughfaces, are supressed by the Left, in the interests of the Jobs Program.

You guys realize your corporate tax rate is way too high, right?

There should be zero Corporate Tax. People should be taxed, and corporations should not be allowed to hold money.

However, tax cuts for The Rich because they're Special, all the economy trickles down from them 'cuz magic. That's fuckin' evil.

If you are going to tax people, tax them on what they spend, not on what they make.
