you mean taxpayers have saved 2.11 trillion. where do you think that money comes from? the money is stil here, except the people still can use it to buy weed instead of the government spending it on jails for weed smokers.
How many times am I going to have to show you the CBO numbers that show the wealthiest Americans already pay the highest effective tax rates, and that their percentage of the tax burden is greater than their percentage of the income pie?
Examples? Well, this is nonsense. Neither wealth nor poverty trickles down from above. What you advocate is anarchy.[/QUOTE]What have you got against the democratic system of government?
This is irrelevant to his point that $2.1 Trillion of income has been lost and is now being borrowed, so that the top 1% can widen the distance between them and the middle class. Tax rates are the lowest that they have been since WWII, when we actually paid as we went. This is a major contributor to the debt. We can't get something for nothing.
No, the richest American people. The money was lost to pay for government expenses that the taxes were intended to pay. Cutting taxes without cutting a corresponding amount of spending is irresponsible.
