Too bad that has been proven false . Big taxes and Regulations have absolutely nothing to do with why businesses are not creating jobs. Uncertainty is a right wing talking point used to fuel the myth of trickle down economics. In the 90's taxes were higher, yet businesses were booming. In the 90's regulations were just as rampant, if not more, yet businesses were booming. in fact the lower the tax rates a corporation has to pay the less likely it will be that they will create jobs. If they are making record profits with minimum supply as they are now they have no incentive to create more product or more jobs. Big businesses and corporations are raking in more profit now than they were in the 90's and the people in the middle, the ones who fuel the demand are making less and/or have less disposable income to create demand.

I find it utter ****ing hilarious that you actually believe that bull****. Wow. Please do tell me more, this is quite entertaining.

Sorry, Lewis Carroll was a Conservative... I could never think like a Conservative... Although that does explain the Republican economic Philosophy.....

You do not think like a liberal either.

To be honest, no one that sides with their party one hundred percent of the time and repeats every political talking point and rhetoric thinks for themselves.

Those people are merely followers. Followers do not think.

When you run with the herd, you always end up following an assh*le.

How would you know?..

That's pretty funny coming from someone who is incapable of a independent thought.
