When the big guy can no longer pass the buck, he moves taking his corporation with him and everybody loses. http://www.marketwatch.com/story/business-cli... Bruce Bartlett on Where the Right Went Wrong February 10, 2012 In this Moyers & Company segment, Bill Moyers talks with conservative economist Bruce Bartlett, who wrote “the bible” for the Reagan Revolution, worked on domestic policy for the Reagan White House, and served as a top treasury official under the first President Bush. Now he’s a heretic in the conservative circles where he once was a star. Bartlett argues that right-wing tax policies — pushed in part by Grover Norquist and Tea Party activists — are destroying the country’s economic foundation. When he called George W. Bush out as “a pretend conservative” in his book Impostor: Why George W. Bush Bankrupted America and Betrayed the Reagan Legacy, Bartlett was fired from his position as a senior fellow at a conservative think tank. His new book is The Benefit and the Burden: Tax Reform — Why We Need It and What It Will Take. http://billmoyers.com/segment/bruce-bartlett-...

The New American Economy The Failure of Reaganomics and a New Way Forward Bruce Bartlett As a domestic policy advisor to Ronald Reagan, Bruce Bartlett was one of the originators of Reaganomics, the supply-side economic theory that conservatives have clung to for decades. InThe New American Economy, Bartlett goes back to the economic roots that made Impostor a bestseller and abandons the conservative dogma in favor of a policy strongly based on what’s worked in the past. Marshalling compelling history and economics, he explains how economic theories that may be perfectly valid at one moment in time under one set of circumstances tend to lose validity over time because they are misapplied under different circumstances. Bartlett makes a compelling, historically-based case for large tax increases, once anathema to him and his economic allies. In The New American Economy, Bartlett seeks to clarify a compelling and way forward for the American economy. http://us.macmillan.com/thenewamericaneconomy... Supply-side economics Today, supply-side economics is likened by agreeable critics to "trickle-down economics". Supply-side economics is often used and referred to as overall term for "trickle-down economics" as it is not targeting specific tax cuts but is instead targeting general tax cuts and encouraging deregulation. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supply-side_econ...

I provided you with information that I hoped would educate you that tanning bed use has nothing to do with race. You then lecture me about not staying on point. Please explain how that was off point or illogical. Can't explain that, can you Pops?

Because I have already posted the answer to your question a number of times but it clearly still escapes you. Others have said so too in the last many pages. The diff between them & I is that the others often insult & berate & I try not to do that...although sometimes I reach my limit too. lol

What a shiddy plan. They just raised taxes on 77% of americans, cut programs that help the middle class, and it still won't be deficit neutral. Especially with all the spending. I know its republicans fault, well obama signed it too. Maybe when the deficit gets worse obama can just blame the guy who served the last term. Oh yeah.

How about that fiscal cliff? How's that stock market doing? What about that housing market? Unemployment that much higher than under Reagan? Everything the GOP stands for are proven lies of the greedy and any sense that they hold any true moral ground when it comes to the Fox News issues they love to muddy the waters with is really just more greed cashing in on the slack jawed bleary eyed flock. The only reason you tea bagging Koch wh0res feel like you had the rug pulled out from under you is because you were so used to prancing around this nation built on freedom like you had a monopoly on God and country for decades and decades.
