While you focus on the horror of higher minimum wages, business is automating labor. No complaints there, right? <br /><br />And in the old days, when corporate taxes were sky high, businesses had to reinvest to lower their tax liability, which is gone due to lower tax rates. Now they take the money out of the business and pad their paychecks, NOT CREATING JOBS.

Plus it produces very little revenue anymore. <br /><br />Not to mention Democrats keep raising the minimum wage choking businesses so labor can be found cheaper elsewhere.<br /><br />Also, a progressive income tax penalizes capital which provides investment and jobs. Never had an income tax until 1913 when the Federal Reserve Act was created.<br /><br />Anyways, you can't tax your way to prosperity. And you can't force people. They will change their behavior.<br /><br />"All initiation of force is a violation of someone else's rights, whether initiated by an individual or the state, for the benefit of an indivdual or group of individuals, even if it's supposed to be for the benefit of another individual or group of individuals." -Ron Paul<br /><br />So stop trying to violate my rights and watch this which I'm sure will be way way way over your head...<br /><br />https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SUuu_jNstlwAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7183447461205976739.post-66217756746391328932017-05-22T01:00:09.927-05:002017-05-22T01:00:09.927-05:00I know, with so many things under funded, let'...I know, with so many things under funded, let's cut taxes.Democurmudgeonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16336177394503335112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7183447461205976739.post-64727189529654023992017-05-22T00:31:01.322-05:002017-05-22T00:31:01.322-05:00Yeah it was just about 60 years ago that Kennedy w...Yeah it was just about 60 years ago that Kennedy was killed in a coup d'etat and Johnson removed the Silver from coinage starting the Great Society promising free goodies to everyone that couldn't be funded properly thus creating a population of government dependent serfs.<br /><br />You should really study history more.

It doesn't change human nature, poverty or the conservative solution to use punishment as a substitute. <br /><br />Top down supply side has filled the Medicaid rolls with more people and more reasons to complain...resent the poor and resent helping them. It's an old ploy that still works.

Not to mention the Swiss National Bank and Japanese Central Bank propping it all up by buying US stocks. And GDP is not growth. Look it up.<br /><br />California is a big state. When was the last time you walked through any of it besides just the advertised parts on TV?<br /><br />Come on out. I'll show you all the success on Skid Row, in the valleys, South L.A. Then we can go to Venice Beach and see what a dump that place is now. Bring lots of cash so you have something to give the beggars.<br /><br />You'll love the increased fuel tax, vehicle registration tax, Maxine Waters house, the businesses leaving left and right, the thousands of "for lease" signs, the crumbling roads, oh and then Jerry Brown and the rest of the libtards telling you what a "freeloader" you are for not wanting to fork over more than half of your income.<br /><br />Take my word for it.
