I think Rappy means that if Reps take power, they'll do all they can to rewrite history. Just like they've tried to recreate the obvious correlation between tax rates on the wealthy and the strength of the economy. Let's see: the top bracket paid 20-25% in the 20s. What happened after that? The top bracket paid 35ish % in the 2000's. What's happening now as a result?
The top bracket paid in the 80-90% (!) range in the late 40's, 50's, and early 60's. What happened in that era? Oh - ri-ight. America had strongest economy in the world is all.
Just one of the facts that will be overwritten by RapFacts(TM by Chrisisall) if the Republicans take power.

To follow up:
"You see if taxes are low, like 20 percent, as a partner in my small business I am motivated to take out our profits as income for myself. Let's say my share of the business led to $100,000 in profits. If taxes are 20 percent, I pay $20,000 and keep $80,000. I can live with that split.
But what happens when taxes are high? If I have to pay 60 percent, then I'm left with only $40,000 and the government takes $60,000. That sucks. I don't want to "lose" all that money. So, what do I do instead? I re-invest it in the business, so I don't have to pay taxes!
If at the end of the year, my tax bill is zero, then I pay zero. Instead, by plowing the profits back into the business I help to grow it and make it even more profitable down the road. I might even hire more people with the extra money I kept in the business because that's a lot better option than just handing it over to the government.
So, higher taxes don't lead to more investment and higher employment because I'm a liberal who likes to give away my money to the government. They lead to those good results for the exact opposite reason -- because I don't want to give away my money to the government.
Logic, you can't beat it. Unless of course you have a lot of money and you just buy off the whole system. And that's where we stand now, with the truth turned on its head. But the next time someone claims tax cuts help the economy, don't let them get away with that bald-faced lie."

Rappy wants to take our country back. Back to the "good old days" of Bush's collapsing economy, his near doubling of unemployment, his net creation of fewer than a million jobs in 8 years, his loss of over 45% of the stock market, his loss of 3000 Americans in a terrorist attack he didn't even try to prevent (despite plenty of warnings ahead of time), his loss of thousands of more Americans in his idiotic prosecution of not one, but TWO illegal and unjustified wars, his more than doubling the national debt, spending far more than every other President in history, his bailouts of Wall Street, the banks, the auto industry, the mortgage companies - you know, what he calls his "base: the haves and the have-mores"; his disastrous response to Katrina, resulting in the deaths of more than 1800 American lives...
THOSE good old days! That's what Rappy and his tea-bagging idiot friends want to bring back! Remember, he's already said he outright hates America. Now he and his kind want to finish the country off once and for all!

The Bush era economy was far better than what we're faced with today, and you know it.
Low unemployment, high stock market. Thanks to the sub-prime Dems and Obamanomics, we're in a world of mess.
TARP was a great idea, after all, despite many who opposed it. Most Republicans admit it was a necessary, while virtually none voted for ObamaStimulus, ObamaCare, ObamaCash4Klunkers.....all bad, idiotic ideas which are killing this country.
It's funny to watch kwickie try to defend the worst President in US history since Carter, by trying to blame Bush.
Bush isn't running, sorry. You'll have to come up with another scape goat.

And since the real collapse started in spring of '07, the blame goes to Obama before he even decided to run for the presidency!
See, when unemployment topped 10% in 1983 - three years AFTER Reagan was elected - that was Carter's fault, because as they always tell us (when it's convenient to say so, anyway) that unemployment is a lagging indicator. So it took THREE YEARS for Carter's damage to hit (note: this was also AFTER Reagan cut taxes - yet before he started raising them again, eleven times in total!). Bush's alleged "four percent" unemployment never existed. The closest he ever got was 4.3% - the day he took office. And it started going up from there. Rappy likes to claim the "four percent unemployment" as being a BUSH accomplishment, but that would make unemployment a LEADING indicator, not a trailing one, since unemployment only got to 4% while CLINTON was in office, well ahead of the 2000 sElection of Bush by the Supreme Court (but not by the voters of America).
Bush left office with unemployment at nearly 8%, nearly doubling the rate on the day he came into office. Of course, the 8% number was again a LEADING indicator, conveniently.
Except that when unemployment went up after Bush took office, and after each and every one of the Bush tax cuts, it was claimed to be a TRAILING indicator.
RapFacts™ don't care about such things, though. RapFacts™ disregard and discard any information that doesn't hew to Rappy's worldview, in which only Democrats are to blame, and they're to blame for everything, all the time (unless it's something really really good, in which case that's all the Republicans' doing, even if they were against it, filibustered it, blocked it, etc.)

Rappy, what you've never figured out is that the country is where it is now BECAUSE of the previous 8 years. So many people warned you, but you just couldn't believe it. You still don't see how it's possible that you can cut taxes AND wage two foreign wars and still end up with enormous deficits and debts. You haven't grokked that part of it, even after all this time.
That comes as no surprise. After all, you're also the party who can't tell the difference between $18 billion dollars and a TRILLION dollars. When Dummy Rumsfeld said the Iraq war would cost less than $18 billion, you ate that shit up, despite other, smarter people telling you that it was going to cost more than a trillion, all of it borrowed money, and you called them liars and said they hated America. So now, here we are, more than a trillion dollars thrown down a hole, and you're complaining that it's all Obama's fault.
Hey, if you want to go on living in your little delusional RappyWorld™, by all means, go for it. The vast majority of posters here know you're full of shit, though, and that you're wrong. And according to you, that should be enough to make you change your mind, right? After all, aren't you the one saying the ground zero community center MUST NOT BE BUILT because most people polled by FauxNews say the Imam should change his mind based on their opinions?

You always want to invoke the former presidents name as if it ever meant something. These events you refer to occured under a progressive congress....follow the trends of congressional power and you can predict prosperity. The mistake average people make is to think that the chief executive plays some real role in american prosperity.
The republican congress helped fuel the roaring economy of the 90's, Clinton had naught to do with it. Our congress changed in Jan 2007 and soon afterwards we suffered for it. When the congress changes again in Jan 2011 we can expect growth to be the result.

Hey, you might be onto something. After all, there were solid Republican majorities in the early 20th Century, leading all the way up THROUGH the Crash of '29 (clearly brought on by Republican policies, you'll no doubt agree). Democrats took over and dragged us out of the Depression, making us the economic powerhouse of the world - and then Republicans gained control of both houses again in the early 50s, for a little while, and promptly stymied all economic growth until they were ousted again, and things continued to improve.
Then, Republicans gained control of the Senate in '81, and things promptly went to shit, with unemployment rocketing up to over 10% by 1983 (Thanks, "conservatives"!), and driving us deeper into recession.
When Republicans again gained control, they promptly worked to burst the dot-com bubble and throw the country AGAIN into a recession (Bushites like to blame Clinton for this, and claim it was really HIS recession that Bush inherited, but thanks for placing the blame firmly on the Republican Congress, and admitting that President Clinton had nothing to do with it).
One thing DOES seem clear when it comes to who's in charge, though: When a Democrat is in the White House, the national debt is shrinking, and when a Republican is in the White House, it's growing - A LOT!

If GOP deficits are bad, then why do you tolerate Obama's ? They're far worse. Is it because he's dark skinned, that you're too afraid to criticize ?

Erm, wait. About what income level are we talking here?
I don't think tax cuts help the economy... I don't think higher taxes help the economy. I think economics is either people trying to explain and predict a bunch of random numbers, or people trying to find fancy obfuscating ways to describe how to game the system. I'm not sure which it is, honestly.
In any case, what this point says to me is that economic scarcity (creating a smaller pool of income money for the average person) prompts investment. Not even going to try to comment if that's true or not, I don't know if it is. But... At some income levels my thinking is tax induced economic scarcity would seem to make an impact on living expenses. That can't be good.

I guess you must be an artist, or some other self-employed person then. If so, you're lucky. Because the rest of us work for corporations. You're anti-corporate, huh? So things like Cars, TVs, Movies, Clothes, Food, DVD's, Hotels, Airlines, CD's, don't interest you; you likely boycott these products of evil corporations, right? Even those model spaceships you're so fond of building...guess what? Made by corporations.

Can't argue with that. Obama and his Democrat Congress have gone against the will of the American people on just about everything for the last 2 years. And if you criticize their arrogant and tone-deaf policies that have all failed, they call you a racist or a bigot or worse. Yeah, where's the respect there man?

I could ask you the same question.
If Obama's deficits are bad, then why did you tolerate Bush's? They were the worst this nation had ever seen. And why do you hate Obama's deficits, when he added only a few percent to Bush's already unimaginable totals? Is it because Obama's dark-skinned?
Deficits aren't necessarily always bad, either. Do you have a mortgage? If so, when you bought your home, you ran a huge deficit that year. You spent far more than you made, and you borrowed to allow that spending.
Now, if you're doing great, making money hand over fist, you probably pay some extra towards the principal on that mortgage - paying down your personal deficit, as it were. If times were so great under Bush, shouldn't we have been paying DOWN the debt and running SMALLER deficits than in years past?
In a similar vein, if you get sick or have an unforeseen economic downturn that pops up, you can borrow against the equity in your house - running a short-term deficit as a bridge loan to get you to longer-term financial stability. That's when a deficit can be HELPFUL.
In bad economic times, governments typically SHOULD run a bit of a deficit. In GOOD times, they should pay those deficits and debts down.
That we didn't do that for 8 years under Bush, and you had no problem with it at all, says that either you don't care about deficits (unless a black man is in office) or you don't really believe the economy was booming.

That's a good idea. I like that. So long as it doesn't drive up living expenses, but I'm not sure how or if it could.
Unless. Sales taxes are probably going to hurt the people that are selling, though it evens out if most everyone's trade results in a product they can sell.
But if most of your foodstuffs are produced by a mega-corporation/conglomerate that also produces luxury goods... Hmm.
I think this idea would be most effective and least harmful if all business were small business. I'd recommend taking out the corporations first before trying to enact it. Even then there might be some problems depending on what the market looks like. You'll also probably want to fight down inflation so products are still affordable with tax, though the good news is if you're fighting down inflation you're also paying off debt. Maybe you can use money from dissolved corporations to do that.
Income tax is a scam, and was put into action about when the first national banks were organized. That pretty much says it all.

But what happens when taxes are high? If I have to pay 60 percent, then I'm left with only $40,000 and the government takes $60,000. That sucks. I don't want to "lose" all that money. So, what do I do instead? I re-invest it in the business, so I don't have to pay taxes!
If at the end of the year, my tax bill is zero, then I pay zero. Instead, by plowing the profits back into the business I help to grow it and make it even more profitable down the road. I might even hire more people with the extra money I kept in the business because that's a lot better option than just handing it over to the government.
So, higher taxes don't lead to more investment and higher employment because I'm a liberal who likes to give away my money to the government. They lead to those good results for the exact opposite reason -- because I don't want to give away my money to the government.
Logic, you can't beat it. Unless of course you have a lot of money and you just buy off the whole system. And that's where we stand now, with the truth turned on its head. But the next time someone claims tax cuts help the economy, don't let them get away with that bald-faced lie."

That would make sense on paper and to anyone that is clueless. The reality is that most small businesses are LLC and are taxed as personal income and not Corporate rates(which can be an advantage over paying both rates if one chose Inc) So, the profits get taxed at the highest rates(in many occasions). In grown up land this leads to the "Partners" in an LLC to not hire, expand, or invest in their business. High personal taxes have the effect of high corporate taxes on LLCs. That is never a good thing. Raising taxes on the rich is to also raise the taxes on the economic engine of this country, the entrepreneur(note:I did not say "investor", which is not what we need now.

Corporations are not regulated by government anymore, they practically ARE the government.
See, we have speed laws to protect the public at large, but corporations have removed laws that they feel hinders them. Can WE do that with speed laws? No. So why do corporations get to be like a person, but ALSO like the government? Money. Some corporations are fine. Some are not.

That right there chops a HUGE chunk off the deficit and works towards paying down the national debt.
And since it's clear that they never created a single job, it should be an easy decision.
... or you could just admit that you really don't have any problem with deficits in the first place, UNLESS they're "OBAMA'S deficits".
The modern definition of "socialist" is anyone who's winning an argument against a tea-bagger.

Corporations are not regulated by government anymore, they practically ARE the government.
See, we have speed laws to protect the public at large, but corporations have removed laws that they feel hinders them. Can WE do that with speed laws? No. So why do corporations get to be like a person, but ALSO like the government? Money. Some corporations are fine. Some are not. But in these times of dog-eat-dog, even good ones are forced to play by dirty rules. That sucks.Quote:If we spent trillions fighting hunger instead of phantoms, MAYBE the world would swing over to our way of seeing things more.

I think you are, or at least you lean hard that way. On one hand you hate the Govt., but then you support Obama socialism.
I vote for ONE thing, and ONE THING ONLY- who is less likely to amp up military hostility in the world.
You and I both know Obama is out in the next election. A good Libertarian leaning Republican is my hope for the next President.
It is a dream I have...
I've got a lot of respect for you. You can mix it up in an adult manner, and you make thought-provoking points. I don't know about the Obama thing though. He is always underestimated, and can never be counted out of anything. Even this coming mid-term election is far from the "done deal" the polls and pundits are saying.
We are much alike you and I, both proud of our ships.......

Yanno, if five percent of the worlds population is consuming 90% of it's resources...
Anyone ever think that maybe ELIMINATING that five percent from the fucking equation might not be a morally repulsive, but tactically sensible, idea ?
Just sayin, yanno.

It's cute that you think that. Really.
You and "Newt" have both said you're each other, repeatedly, so I treat you as one entity. It doesn't "spin" me or make me crazy; it makes it less work to respond to either/both of you, or ignore either/both of you. You being the same makes things EASIER for me.

I'm not Chris, but I'll throw this out there anyway...
Depends on what you mean by "fair" tax.
Capital gains taxed as income? Sure.
Social Security taxes applied to ALL payroll earnings? Check (Currently they're capped at around 5.2% on the first $106,800 of income, and zero after that. Extend them to 5.2% on ALL income, and that alleged shortfall in Social Security goes away).

I don't expect you to recall the politics from 1994-1998 but the republican congress had to almost force the president to sign a budget that was balanced. I only wish they had stuck to their principals as they led the way into 2000 rather than discard them. But they can pick up the baton again.
But if we are to refer to your chart I must observe that it stops suspiciously short of 2009 and 2010 where the debt bars are so much longer..
But I'm not surprised at that, I'm not expecting any intellictual honesty from you on RWED.

Could be that the chart was made before the final numbers were in for 2009. Seems to me I've seen that chart around here for quite a while. If that's the case, obviously they couldn't include the numbers for 2010 either.
But yes, it SHOULD include the spending for 2009 and 2010, where the debt bars are a little longer than for Bush's fiscal 2008 budget.

Y'know, I *COULD* point out that Democrats have traditionally paid down the debt and cut deficits, as I've shown, and that "they can pick up the baton again". Of course, YOU could have pointed that out, too, since you're so willing to give the Republicans a chance to try again, even given their abysmal record in the past.
I'm not surprised that you wouldn't offer them the same chance. I'm not expecting any "intellictual" honesty from you on RWED or anywhere else, because you've never shown an iota of it in the past.
