He's saying that massive regulations on business hamper economic growth. I don't know where you get the idea that he is saying the environment and workers shouldn't be protected. There was nothing in his post that even hinted at that. He just said looking at the tax rates isn't sufficient to explain how the economy is doing. You have to look at other factors. And one of those factors is what the regulatory environment is like. If a company has a finite amount of money to spend on expansion and half of that is spent on complying with regulations then they will not expand as much as if only ten percent of that was spent on complying with regulations. And a similar concept applies to if they are spending more in regulatory compliance to produce their goods and services than if they are spending less.
They want to compete on a global scale, but don't realize the prize we are paying and will continue to pay with lost jobs, because there is no way we are going to compete on price, as they have way less overhead and restrictions.
Why do you think big factories shut down here, only for the same thing to be built elsewhere in the world, by the same company that had the factory here, with a simple name change.
Some didn't even try to hide it.
Revisionist history from the right. Who could have predicted?
I'm not revising anything, that includes history. The numbers are easy to read, a budget surplus was predicted but never actually happened sort of like when the CBO screwed up every estimate it made about Obamacare.
I'm not talking about predictions like liberals seem to get hung up on, I'm talking about real numbers that actually turned out to be correct.
Worst excuse in the history of the nation, and you're trying to use the drug addict Limbaugh?
If it was all that GOP's doing for the booming economy, it should have skyrocketed under W as the GOP had complete control, but the opposite happened.
The GOP fiscals plans were a disaster under Reagan, a disaster under Bush, and an absoutly nightmare under W.
It's been proven time and time again that GOP fiscal plans lead to nothing but massive spending and colossal debt.
If you watch the video I posted, it's almost entirely video clips of things that Clinton said. But you just opt to ignore all that, of course.
Instead your argument seems to be that Limbaugh was a drug addict, therefore I am wrong. LOL is that your argument???
Be careful, because Pres. Obama has admitted to being a drug user in his high school years. By your "logic" that must mean that his ideas on fiscal matters also must be wrong.
