    Rich people don't think of themselves as "job creators". For reasons that are obvious, they aren't motivated by creating jobs and do so reluctantly, if at all.
    Cowards like you think that raising taxes on 'the rich' will bring about great success. For reasons that are obvious to everyone but you, the call for higher taxes will just result in more taxes on paychecks. That means the little people the crying liberals want to help would see their taxes go up to fund all the great plans progressives want. A lot of people on the boreds are interested in serious tax reform and can have a grown up conversation about it. If you want to stay at the kids table and yell 'tax the rich, i'm right' go for it.
    At present we can't even pay for our commitments. Borrowing the money isn't along term winner.

    Your team has repeatedly lowered taxes on the rich, promising "trickle down" benefits that weren't realized. Baby steps: at this point it would be significant progress for you to admit that no further tax cuts for the rich are justified. Then we can talk about who should actually pay more.
    I seem to recall something about middle class and lower income people experiencing significant gains in their incomes prior to 2020. As I recall you want to increase our "commitments" to include yours and other people's student loan debt not to mention your support for Nationalized Healthcare. Maybe our "commitments" are what need to be cut before we raise anyone's taxes.

    such reforms do not have any significant effect on economic growth
    and unemployment


    You girls seem awfully ready to abandon the argument you all made in favor of lowering taxes on "job creators". I don't know how to make my reason for posting any more more explicit than what I've already emphasized. I appreciate your many concessions though.

    Hahahahaha. He called you guys girls. Even though you actually are boys. That is a sick burn and means you lose this discussion.
    HH's deep seated misogyny is well-documented.

    We find that major reforms reducing taxes on the rich lead to higher income inequality as
    measured by the top 1% share of pre-tax national income. The effect remains stable in the
    medium term. In contrast, such reforms do not have any significant effect on economic growth
    and unemployment.

    You're welcome.

    Since when is income "equal" ever? In what way? Rich people always make more money because they have more money. Fuck you lefty shitbirds .

    What team am I on again, little man? If I'm on the team for tax fairness and less partisanship, sure. You just keep pushing the tired Bernie bro arguments. I didn't argue in favor of cuts, you started this by posting a pile of shit from an obviously biased source. I am arguing that most people that call for raising taxes don't realize that truly wealthy people aren't going to see their taxes increase, and that it's much easier for a government to increase taxes on the little people.
    The whole fucking point was the effect of tax cuts on the rich. So other than whooshing yourself, what were you hoping to accomplish here?
    No, the point was for you to read a shitty left wing talking point, think that it proves something, and then post it. Then you were mocked for it. That summarizes the history of what you do here.
    It wasn't an opinion piece, madam. It was a study.
    "It was a study". That's precious. No one takes you seriously.
    So you didn't read it.

    But you've got an opinion!
    It's complete garbage. Just like you.
    ouch

    Anti-rich organization says tax cuts for the rich don’t work and don’t create jobs.

    As the furthest left here I can confirm. I am not calling for all incomes to be equal.

    Sure. Lower and middle incomes were rising under Trump. Just like they were under Reagan after Carter. Dems hated that. Private sector workers need employers who are making money and trying to expand their business. Employers trying to keep costs down try to bring in legal and illegal immigrants. Pretty much Econ 101. Apparently your match book cover MBA didn't cover supply and demand.

    H has claimed he has student loan debt? I know he's claimed he's rich. Rich people don't have student loan debt.

    My student loan debt, blob? Where the fuck did that come from?

    We've already made commitments to aged fuckers like Race and Gasbag. Those entitlements are the big ticket items. Do you foresee some political will to ever cut those things?

    And I've never, ever advocated for a National Healthcare service.
