Corporations are hoarding NEARLY TWO TRILLION DOLLARS, yet Republicans think all we need to do is give them a massive tax cut to convince them to start creating jobs out of the goodness of their heart.
@imgdumpprep Trickle-Down...Flat-Earth...They sort of go together. Trickle-Down was the Ministry of Truth term for Geyser-Up. Or was it Bleed-Out? Could be both.
Sorry, an old post for you, but I just stumbled on this video.
Mars was the perfect selection to frame those millionaire tax breaks. Another thing to keep in mind when considering the plight of the wealthy in this country: The ratio of CEO compensation to that of the average worker in the US has gone from 42:1 in 1980 to 344:1 at the end of 2007. I'm really trying to get my head around giving a tax cut to someone making $10,500/hour. It seems to have something to do with school teachers being greedy and unions being ba-a-a-d. I'll keep trying.
Does anyone see a problem with giving the rich the tax breaks after they create jobs instead of giving it to them hoping they will. They are not hurting or struggling, they can afford to create jobs without the tax break. Create the jobs, then get a tax break. Maybe we should make them earn it instead of just giving it away.

@CivilRadiant Sorry, but you can't blast "Keynesian economics" and then endorse "privatize everything" economic nut Ron Paul.
