The BLS says 10,200,000 jobs were created between 2003, and the recession. Are you telling me they are wrong or are you just denying facts because you dont mind looking foolish again?

Oh... excuse me... about 3 million jobs were created under Bush... The worst track record ever for any U.S. President... Unfortunately for you... I've never looked foolish...

Bush On Jobs: The Worst Track Record On Record - Real Time Economics - WSJ

As for the $2.3 TRILLION stolen by the Bush Administration... They blew up the Pentagon the next day... destroying the DOD records... How convenient...

That's because that poor person's job is being done overseas...

If your thinking that unemployment can't get any lower your wrong. The rich will work or invest even less if they are going to be penalized even more with more taxes .
The rich will close their business and live off of what they earned and saved in past years .
That is just, wow. You should be the one who's glad this board doesn't allow you to be called stupid.

Could I just close down my business and live comfortably? Yes. Would I? Hell no. You think people like Larry Ellison is just going to sit this one out because a tiny ity bit tax hike?

I'm rich and I've many rich friends, I have never, ever met one who bases their business decision solely on the government tax rate.

Er, sweetheart, the reason why we didn't vote for Hillary is because she wasn't on the ballot.

What are you talking about?

Your original question/OP was as follows:

Poor and Middle Class Conservatives, How do you benefit by helping the wealthy?...

Are the tax cuts creating jobs for you?...


Ignoring the the fact that its a loaded question typically asked by ignoramuses, I gave you a simple answer devoid of any ideology or attacks on any specific politician.

And all you can do is blather about Reagan?

The economy never boomed during the Bush years... Layoffs immediately started after 9/11...

You've provided no reason to believe anyone other than CLINTON pocketed the missing $2.3 TRILLION. A defense audit found the money missing in 1999, and Rumsfeld complained about inheriting a DoD budget missing that $2.3 TRILLION again in 2001.
