Maryland Learns Tax Incentives For Hollywood A Loser For Taxpayers

go ahead tell us how you are going to control the variables in the real world..
which is where we should be functioning.

answer... you can't control these variables in the real world unless you get congress to balance the budget.


So we are left with realty... tax cuts are followed by revenue increases... vs leftist "models" which make "assumptions" about where the economy would be holding things the same but the tax cuts.

Revenues went up after tax cuts... even the revenues from the 1% who got a good part of the Bush Tax cut.

You're not real big on controlling variables, are you?

while we have seen the graphs showing the republican house under Clinton did the best job of controlling spending... they are all traitors on the whole which explains why everyone despises the job they are doing.

Reagan and Bush II were massive spenders, and tax revenues went up. Since revenues went up, we can keep increasing spending until that stops happening.

Reality is that spending increases are followed by revenue increases.

Wow, those are huge spending increases! And now revenues are hitting record highs in 2014. Therefore spending increases raise revenues.

 

[jem]

Ok... I will play your game...

So if we are going to spend our asses off anyway.
and we have have no idea how many trillions of dollars are being created by the Fed each year?

Why do we need any income taxes at all?
(note... you can't say inflation unless you know something about the impact of the deficits on the total money supply)

How else are we supposed to mop up all the debased dollars in circulation?

If you make no attempt to control variables, then you end up jumping to conclusions that are unsupported by the evidence. You engage the same thought process with economics as you do with climate science and arrive at the same sort of nonsense.

Why not just eliminate taxes entirely? According to your way of thinking, revenues would skyrocket and then everything would be just peachy.

 

[jem]

you clearly have a budget deficit in understanding.

get back to me when the fed govt balances the budget or when you have some science showing man made co2 causes warming.

Models are not reality.

[jem]

now that is why I like arguing with you.
correct...the cronies make sure we mop them up from the non cronies.
progressive taxes and a death tax coupled with strong inflation... is just about all you need to do the trick of debt enslaving the people of a once prosperous country.

How else are we supposed to mop up all the debased dollars in circulation?

There you go again. What do "models" have to do with it?
