You had no point at all.. just whining like Democrats because the thread was dead before it started...
You guys are flip flopping non stop from Clinton being fantastic and responsible for the growth in the economy, balancing the budgets, to now him just being a benefactor of the free market economy that you seem so much to hate...
its weird..
no, actually, the answer is you have no way to refute my point, so like most Trump lemmings, you double down on your ignorance and pretend you're correct.
The horrors, they plan to pay down debt, we cant have that....
They will pay down debt by transferring it to the national debt with this 1.5 trillion red ink tax cut. In other words, taxpayers in future years, and middle class working people right away, will pick up the tab for private corporations. We should be paying down our national debt first or at least not adding to it to pay the bills the private sector has run up.
Look at all the economically ignorant Leftist posters here commenting on something they know nothing about and citing Washington Post, which is neither unbiased or are economics experts.
Whether they pay down debt or buy stocks back, ultimately that is money that is put back into the economy.
Self-sabotaged in 2 sentences, that's pretty impressive.
Neither does because no economist has ever advanced a "trickle down" theory to support. Not ever. The phrase was first used by an FDR speechwriter and ever since, the only time it is ever spoken/printed is when a Democrat/liberal/critic is accusing a Republican of advocating for something they have never actually supported as it has never existed as an economic theory. In other words, it is a pure lie, as in 100% devoid of fact, that is found only in Democrat politics.
Conservatives like to call it supply-side economics, but a turd, however carefully buffed by people like Sowell, still stinks.
Says every demand-side theorist who went full Keynesian in their 20s, not knowing that Keynes himself grossly misquoted/misstated what classical economists had taught on production leading demand for damn near a century before he began plagiarizing Malthus (who also grossly oversimplified the classicists into strawman caricatures).
Supply side economics is not simply reduction of the top marginal or corporate tax rates. It is an entire macroeconomic theory about the entire production side of the supply/demand laws, and includes tax rates, the regulatory state, international supply & demand, monetary policy and consumer confidence.
And not one person has ever espoused an economic theory along the lines of the caricature that supply side economics is turned into when leveled as some sort of criticism by people on the left.

You're like a sophomore econ undergrad who thinks they've found some new idea no one ever thought of
