Who pays for all the military goodies, etc? Someone pays fewer taxes, but someone else has to pay the bills. Money just gets displaced like water in a bath tub when you get in. There's not more water, your presence makes it rise and appear to be more. In other words, you're all wet.

And, there we have it. One of my ex-bosses (a Republican) headed a commission years ago that showed how we could cut spending by closing military bases that were not needed. How long have the Republicans controlled the Congress? How many years did they have to cut spending in this area? Let me guess, you want to cut spending for poor people, welfare, food stamps and the lot. Check with Mitch McConnell. Entire counties of people in his state won't be able to feed their kids, if you do. Cutting spending really worked in Kansas. They have a robust economy. Oh, wait. They are in the toilet, while tax and spend California is the sixth largest economy in the world and flourishing. You have bought into a brainwashing that defies math, logic and decency. Good luck with it. Why don't you slither elsewhere. You bore me.

how else are we going to reduce the debt? Increasing taxes doesn't work. That's why there is a Laffer curve.

One could increase taxes. When one wants more money to spend in real life, that is what one does. One does not simply stop paying one's bills or hope they will magically go away. Reagan and the two Bushes demonstrated that this does not work. In case you don't uderstant extreme economic philosophy, some people are trying to bankrupt America, so that they can buy our assets at deep discounts and put an end to any help the poor, sick and needy might get. Congratulations for being one of their useful idiots.

Did you read what I said? I said "Laffer Curve". That is the principle that there is a reduction in tax income when you get to a certain tax rate. Please read my argument.

The Laugher Curve, pun intended, was a fraudulent pseudo-scientific tool to help start the sytemic starving of the beast. It is the economics version of the Easter Bunny. If you believe it exists, it does. The only time that reducing taxes can help "grow the economy," is when there is a positive consequence for reinvestment in the domestic economy, or a disincentive for not doing so. That is the tax system we had in place from the end of WWII and 1980, when the economic growth benefitted all sectors. The one example that appears to not conform with this requirement is when LBJ did away with the excise tax on domestic products. It created a different incentive. Consumers found lower prices of domestically produced goods to be an incentive to purchase them over imported goods. Keynes was right. If you want an outcome, create the circumstances and incentives that make that outcome likely or probable. The current tax cuts simply make the rich richer without any incentive for reinvesting their windfall in any way that will benefit anyone but them.

Investing in business helps everyone. It also helps when rich people get more money. It helps if everyone gets more money. Boi
