You guys are just too simple minded to realize that a). It's possible to care about more than one thing at a time, and b). There is almost always more than one solution to a problem.
I'm for lowing corporate tax. Not the uber wealthy like most every hard right conservative GOP. Raising personal taxes on the 1% will force them to share more of the profits with their employees who's backs their wealth was built on. As it is, they get away with paying part time slave wages to their workers and hoard all the profits for themselves and shareholders. Increasing their tax rate will give them incentive to share the wealth.
Who do you think is going to spend more and stimulate the economy? The worker who gets an extra $10-$20k a year? Or the billionaire who add another billion to his wealth? Of course, it's the employee with an extra $10k in disposable income.
It's ironic that the ultra libs here accuse me of parroting right wing talking points when that's ALL everyone here does on the left! You are closed minded to anything that isn't repeated over and over in this useless echo chamber you've got here. At least I think for myself. You guys are literal puppets for leftist propaganda and your answer to anyone who disagrees with you is simply to ban them because you're too brainwashed to have a reasoned conversation about real remedies to problems.
