When people make more money, things start to cost more. Did these people study anything other than Keynesian Economics?

Non-working family of four gets $122,000 in welfare benefits in state of Washington.
Personally, I’m tired of busting my ass at work so some lazy ass can stay home and be better off than I am.
Enough of this B.S. already.

Pick a lane, slave wages or tax cuts for the rich, not both because that is how you actually ruin the economy.

If you charge the business owners less, they should lower their prices. Sadly, this is not always the case.

Logical thinking is not naivete. The onus of wrongdoing is on the party that does not follow logic.

Is it logical to keep voting for the party of recessions and poor stock market performance?

By that I assume you mean the democrats? But no, it is not.

Republicans are the party of recessions and poor stock markets.

If you aren't too inept and/or lazy those facts are easily verifiable. Give it a shot sometime. You might learn something in the process

That's strange. If I recall, we have a democrat in power right now, and we're in a recession. Your thoughts?

Ummmm >80% of this nation's months in recession occur with a Republican in the Whitehouse.

EVERY SINGLE REPUBLICAN PRESIDENT HAS HAD AT LEAST ONE RECESSION.

JFK through Obama
56 yrs
28 for both
Using the S&P 500
You would have 8 times more money with the democratic administrations vs the republican administrations.

Easily verifiable data.

You voted for Bush 2 twice didn't you? He had 2 recessions the 2nd of which was the worst since the great depression.

Seriously dude you need to look inward and discover why you believe the Republican lies that they are good for the economy and stock market.

Perhaps that is what the statistics show, but the logic of tax cuts being the sources of those recessions is flawed. Also, looking back, Bush was terrible. He was still a lot better than the alternative would have been. Sometimes you need to look at what could have been. The statistics would have been different if only democrats had won. They'd show more dem presidents in power during recessions. I can't prove that, but logic dictates it. Some of those recessions happened due to reasons other than tax breaks (in fact, all of them. Tax breaks do not cause recessions). But you can continue to believe democrat lies if you want.

Ahahaha you can't be helped.

You said it would be illogical to vote for the party of recessions and poor stock markets AND when shown supporting easily verifiable FACTS you STILL GONNA VOTE REPUBLICAN.

You used a sleazy tactic by manipulating me into saying something and using that against me. Then you conflate something with something else where there is no objective connection. Then you call me names and block me. Typical...

In this case, the party would be the businesses.
