Oh snap! I may have missed a few trademark opportunities.
Honestly I might would have responded to another poster asking that hypothetical (although I don't remember the Washington Post article I linked saying "kill the wealthy!") but I don't see any point because I don't feel like you are actually serious about having a conversation and haven't been in a long time.

I have no issue with intelligent conversation. The idea that there is no trickle down is absurd. The author of the posted article is rather ignorant.

Apparently so are the people that read the article and read "trickle down has failed repeatedly" as "there is no trickle down."

Enjoy the last feeding before I head off for the night even though I usually try to avoid feeding them.

Assuming trickle down exists (which I assume you agree it does), to what degree does it exist? Seemingly it exists to quite a substantial degree. That being the case, I assume your argument is that a trillion here or a trillion there (i.e. the marginal difference with a trillion dollar decrease in tax burden) has no impact on the overall trickle down effect. Nevertheless, it's nice to know that you agree that trickle down does in fact exist.

As a real fiscal conservative, which makes me a dinosaur, since none exist in the Congress any more, the bill is appalling. It will not pay for itself and it proponents do not believe it either. It is a stalking horse to slash entitlements, after it craters our deficit and national debt...

It exists to the degree that makes it not a worthwhile endeavor to pursue because it is more fallacy than fact especially when it comes to the super rich, which is who this bill is helping to loot America while there's still loot to be had.

you obviously are naive to the awesome power of the trickle down

What is your feeling on the corporate tax cut?

Hold on................are you guys trying to tell me the republicants actually have a philosophy?

Being a bunch of weak-knee spineless losers, that are content to be the minority party, so all they have to do is pretend they are opposing the "radical agenda", of the other guys, doesn't qualify as a philosophy.
