Tax cuts don’t help businesses, what?!  Tax cuts allow businesses to hire more people, invest their money in new technologies, buy more inventory

This is retarded. “Tax cuts” are only good for businesses that are profitable. The issue here — READ THE FRIGGING SUBJECT LINE, YOU CONSERVATIVE TWIT — is businesses that aren’t raking in profits.

Secondly, no company pays taxes on the money they spend on employees. Or inventory. Get it?  Even just a little?  You’re listing business expenses, OVERHEAD — the things businesses do not pay taxes on. No tax cut is going to make these more affordable because nobody is taxing them.

Damn. You should all be embarrassed…  

And, no business is going to expand unless there are new customers to sell and/or service. Again, using a previous example, if Ford Motor Company built a new planet and started spitting out more cars right now, the end result would be FEWER jobs and LESS income. See, because there is no new market to buy all those additional cars, all they would be doing is flooding their existing market. What they would be doing is producing more cars than there are buyers for.

Supply & Demand, you worthless Dittohead.

Finally, reality is proving you wrong right now. Reality has proven you wrong these last 11 years. Taxes were higher under Clinton. Bush cut taxes. Obama cut taxes. Obama alone pushed through some $1.1 trillion in tax cuts, not even counting the latest expansion on the FICA cut. And he keeps asking for more. If tax cuts grew business, businesses in America should have created tens of million of new jobs by now, and set the economy on fire. But, instead, we are in the longest period of economic pain this nation has ever faced.

There were 386,000 “first time” unemployment applications filed this week alone. Your way is a proven failure.
