you mean the last 8 years that started with a massive recession, where rational use of deficit spending as called for, which was then followed by years of lowered deficits? Which when called on Republicans then fall back on "Republican congress!"....which is now poised to blow the deficit up insanely?

You cant have it both ways. Either the Republicans are responsible stewards of the economy, or they arent.

BTW when we have a recession again-most likely in Trumps term based upon historical timing....I will encourage deficit spending. And of course listen to all of you who don't comprehend this call me a hypocrite.

It won't mean "massive debt." Reducing the tax rate has always resulted in increased revenue to the Federal government. Always.

I edited my last post, so you might want to go back and read the rest of it.

To answer your question, we are discussing the 15% corporate tax rate on this thread, aren't we? You are going way off on different tangents.

No, higher income doesn't mean someone is wealthy. In some areas $100,000 doesn't go very far and in others you can own a nice house and drive a new car. However, please don't try to convince me that the tax code is fair and equitable.

Petch...none of that is on topic. And cutting and pasting is not discussing.

No answer the question.... how many understand that income does not mean you are rich. And of course Obama and Democrats know people don't understand the difference between income and wealth so they were able to lie to people and people believed them.

And that is precisely why it always works. Liberals will never understand this basic economic principle, so stuck are they on Keynesian theory, which is garbage.

Petch, you called her a liar repeatedly, and she indicated she wasn't going to respond. Why do you think she will now? Because you called her a idiot?
