the republican ideas

[cawacko]

Where do people think money that fund companies and growth comes from? Does it just grow on trees? I ask this within the context of previous statements that the rich do nothing positive with their money.

 

[cawacko]

Republicans all have something in common- I have never met a Republican that wasn't first a hard-headed, rude, self-important, selfish, hypocritical, and arrogant asshole!

There is no debating, negotiating, or arguing with a Republican, because of their obsession of winning every argument, and they think they are right about everything.

In fact, if a Democrat ever has anything further to say to a Republican, it is just the start of a whole new argument.

Republicans would argue with a mud fence!

Millions of Republicans in the country but you've not even met one who is nice? Wow.

LAFFER himself shows his CURVE is a CURVE for a reason



the peak of the curve is a 50% tax rate on the wealthy and it gives you the highest tax revenue



we should be taxing the wealthy at a 50% rate



want to do what the Laffer CURVE shows?


or are you idiots just going to keep lying about what it says

These threads are a waste of time. You just make shit up, and do a victory dance. Never mind that you are NEVER right. That is not at all what the Laffer curve says.

Companies expand or hire more staff when they cannot keep up with demand. No matter how much profit they are making, they do not hire people to stand around. The wealth gap is worse than the Gilded Age. They want more.
Want to grow the economy, increase the min wage. Those people spend their money. That is demand.

You didn’t address/answer the question Nordberg. Are companies just dreamed into existence without capital? Does the government fund all new businesses? Where do start ups get their funding?

Who do you think funded firms like Facebook, Amazon and Google? Minimum wage increases?

I have a friend that I've kept around for about 45 years who is a Republican, but he will tell you right up front he is an asshole and proud of it!

For years we would argue politics and many times someone ended up with a bloody nose, but we've since agreed to not discuss politics anymore.

Do you live in the northeast? Because basically everyone in the NE is an a*hole and if you didn’t leave the area I could actually see it being true

what issue first?

Climate denial.

An article of faith among most Republicans, and pretty much a prerequisite for belong to the party of science denial.

The various Republican climate denial theories go like this, but they can change year to year, month to month...even hour to hour!

There Earth is not warming.
The Earth is warming, but it is because of natural causes.
Scientists are faking the data, and lying to the public.
Global warming is a Chinese hoax! (hat tip: Donald Trump)
Even if human are contributing to warming, there's nothing to worry about and the effects won't be that bad.

No! We live in Texas!

But, yes, there is at least one asshole in the Northeast!

I stopped and asked directions at a filling station in Renner, Washington one time, as I got lost and I was already late to a sales meeting. The hillbilly asshole told me to buy a map or GTFO! LOL!

I’ve been known to be directionally challenged myself so I won’t make fun but Washington is in the northwest, not the northeast.

My wife is from Dallas. Texans are some of the nicest people in the country. Maybe it’s you who is the problem

Born and raised here in Dallas!

We try and be helpful when someone just needs simple directions.

You have to be careful judging people here now though, because so many people living here are from somewhere else.

I took a business associate to lunch once. He was a transplant from New York. He was always popping off about Texans.

Well, a car pulled out in front of me and almost hit us, and he said, "See there, you Texans don't even know how to drive"!

As we came up behind that car, a little closer observation proved, the car that ran out in front of me had New Jersey license plates!

I never laughed so hard in my life!
