No, he's a politician. That's expected.

By cutting taxes to the rich, sales taxes don't rise, and corporations are in the best position to create new jobs and produce.

I don't pay taxes, so sucks to be you Robtard. Enjoy your mundane job where you spend most of your time on this website and still get paid!

You'd think tax cuts for corporations NOT creating jobs over and over and over again would make people realise that cutting taxes for corporations doesn't create jobs.

Apparently not.

Who remembers that 2017 meeting with 100 CEOs where they were asked if they would use their Trump tax cut to invest and create jobs and 2 of them put their hands up and the rest of them said the money would go to executive pay and shareholder profits?

I didn't say they'd do it, I said they'd be in the best position. Small businesses have a lot more risk than big businesses.

Shareholder profits means more investment in Apple products and Amazon services, which is a pretty big deal in the modern era.

By increasing corporate tax, shareholders are going to want the profits from somewhere, which means an increase in sales tax, hurting the middle and working classes, the unemployable, the homeless, and even illegal immigrants.

Did the orange birthday-boy phaggot get all the attention he needed last nigh,t?

No it doesn't. It literally means the exact opposite of that.

Okay, you assume they use their profits for leisure, and I say they use their profits for investments. Can't both be true?

Besides, doesn't the phrase go, "you have to spend money to make money?"

Do I have to repeat myself?

Please don't

The most dangerous job in the world is being a supreme court justice who's not wearing their gold high top sneakers

It's amusing just how easy they're capable of convincing the Rightist pleb masses that they'll feel that "trickle down", eventually, they swear, promise it's not urine you're feeling.

It's also amusing that some of the poorest people, ones that rely on public handouts to literally not be dead in a gutter, still push their agenda. We've had at least two in KMC like this. Maybe three, as I'm pretty sure that ethnorgr/star428 guy was on the dole too.

It's hilarious you don't understand that these elitist ****ers will raise prices the second they get taxed and everyone suffers.

Bow down to your masters. I rebelled, their only solution was to call me crazy to cover their own asses.

Taxing businesses doesn't work because they can move them. Taxing assets is the way to go.

So "both sides" equalization coping tactics, it's a favorite of Rightist who get brief moments of lucidity and realize they voted against their own best interest

And yes, Democrats are shit, but they're FAR less likely to screw the middle/working class over so the wealthiest people can have just a little but more. eg See Harris' proposed tax cuts to the mddle.

^There's some truth to this, but both can be done.

eg Elon Musk pays little to zero personal income tax.

Deary me

Let me explain it again.

In 2017 the WSJ held a meeting of CEOs and they were asked for a show of hands on would they use their Trump tax cuts to invest.

2 of them put their hands up.

When asked why there weren't more putting their hands up they said the cuts would be used to increase "shareholder value".

They didn't invest in R&D. They didn't use it to create jobs. They used it to increase shareholder profits.

Not sure why this is so difficult for you.

Sorry, Bash 😂

Of note, Republicans who control our House and Senate just voted to extend Trump's 2017 tax cuts to the wealthiest people/corporations, the middle/working class will keep the tax hike to pay for it again, prices of everyday goods are set to skyrocket. Hmmm.
