If you can cut taxes to prosperity, where is that prosperity right now? Bush cut taxes 3 YEARS AGO and I'm still pushing a Cessna 172 in Florida with 2850TT/360ME. The economy is not exactly rockin' out, bucko...Take a look at your latest paycheck, TimeBuilder...
Very interesting. You are flying and I'm not, yet you are the one who is more dissatisfied.
I think you need to look at this situation from a clearer perspective. Suppose for instance that Bush had not cut taxes and spurred a recovery. Would you still be pushing a 172 in Florida? The chances are very goood that you'd be joining thousands of pilots who are on the sideline right now. I don't put the blame on the president for my situation, unlike the well-funded democrats who are now vying for delegates. All of the situations we now find ourselves in are market driven.
Prosperity is something that develops. Economic variables don't act like switches, they act more like variable resistors. Go to your yahoo! page and look at market trends since Bush entered office. See a trend? This is what causes employees to be hired, and it is how jobs are created or lost. I heard another democrat talking head yesterday asserting that Bush had "lost" x-number of jobs in the past two years. Really? Had a former president hired these workers who had been displaced ? No, of course not. Government doesn't "create jobs", companies do.
I am far better off for this economic stimulus compared to where I might be had it not happened. Who should have their taxes cut the most? Answer: those who pay the most in taxes. If anyone needs a lesson in fairness, we can further discuss how the tax system punishes the creation of wealth.
Jobs come from people who are investing large sums of money. Plain and simple.
