lol theres nothing funier than conservative ideals...

lift the tax burden on the rich and giant corporations and place it on the working class... lol unfortunatly for those morons its the working class that keeps them in business.. so by taking away thier money it assures that the economy goes down and spending is reduced... LOL a vicous circle.

my family is STILL waiting for that fuckiing trickle down....

I'm sure they are. I'm sure that MANY people are.


You are EXACTLY correct, Billy! The vicious circle. Its what happened during the Global Economic Crisis on a smaller scale.

Less money flowing-->>consumers buy less-->>companies produce less-->>companies lose money-->>companiese lay off employees-->>employees have less money to spend-->>consumers buy less

Etcetera. Why this simple ideal is so tough for conservatives to understand, I will never know.

Remember the inflation under Jimmy Carter?

The economy was going good until '87, but then it picked itself up again with the High technology boom.


The long term economic forecast is bleak though as America is being deindustrialized. Factories closing down and good union jobs are being shipped overseas.
Don't forget that NAFTA and GATT were passed by liberal Democrat controlled congress and signed by Bill Clinton.

passed through conservative hands first, and used by conservatives soley for the most part. noone is forcing these companies to move overseas, its the conservatives who own everything and greedily want more that are doing it. CLinton may have helped along but you can be pretty certain that it was conservtives behind him with the pitchfork.

That was Stagflation under Carter. The ultimate effect was null.

Reganomics ruined the economy from '85 and on, if not sooner.

I don't recall the democrats controlling Congress except for a brief period under Clinton.

And the economy only picked up again once Clinton was in office.

So then Bill Clinton and his ilk is your defintion of a conservative?

How do you get THAT?

That was Inflation and it hurt the economy.

The economy was booming in '85. A dip in '87 and then the economy grew with Hightech. The economy was slipping in Clinton's final year in office due the the crash of the dotcoms.

I was responding to Billy the Kidd's post.

Ah, ok then. But still, how do you get THAT, then, in the context of what Billy was saying.

The economy was definately not booming in the mid-80's. Unemployment was at a high.

Explain then, how Supply Side Economics are the savior of all. Explain how it works, and why none but the rich have benefitted from it.
