"It is not working"

Quote

"The question is, how can we get the ox out of the ditch?" Mr Skinner said. "In order to create jobs in America, you're going to have to cut taxes… particularly in the business community."

"We pay some of the highest [corporate] taxes around the world. There needs to be some levelling."

"Asked about federal borrowing, he said: "It's not a good story… the government has to spend less. We have to grow the economy, grow GDP… and you have to be able to do it in an organic way and not through borrowings and increasing debt."

Brucetee_ Tell me brucetee, why do you not like Grover Glenn Norquist ? When did raising federal income taxes on rich generate more revenue than decreasing ? Is simple question...

what was that “original thinking” that_ The Messiah_ announced when he came back from his retreat with the rich & famous ??? At least it was voted on & failed from both sides of the isle in the Senate. Harry Reid voted NO to it as well.

Yeah we still believe in cutting taxes to generate more revenue for government. Worked for Kennedy, Reagan, Newt, and Bush. WHERE HAS Keynesian economics worked brucetee ?

Barry has already performed Keynesian economics more debt than 8 years of Bush. Of course not enough spending done and AA rating if too high for you. Your IDEAL is more debt that all Presidents rolled up by barry. Well voters agreed with us and voted Hel* NO.

Long before due date for budget Oct. 1, 2010, Senate just stopped voting on monetary issues. They have no solution. We passed 15 bills Senate can't vote on or even change to vote on. Democrats in Senate on ZOMBIES.

Boehner gets legislation passed in House and Reid Stops solving problems. Reid told Senate in December not to pass bill raising debt ceiling. Reid wanted to wait for Republican to take possession of House and take HEAT FOR RAING. That's brucetee's admiration. Democrat Senate WAITS. Complain about the doers.

When Democrats controlled and the doers, they passed a lot of legislation into law against the polls. Obamacare is MORE DEBT even after all the money stealing from entitlement programs. More jobs lost. Barry postponed a really BIG job killer EPA regulation. Thank you Republicans for screaming. 100's more need to go. Let the liberals_ exaggerate_ and say we want dirty air and water, a lie we must live with to create jobs.

Another of _Their Nov. 2, 2010_ election day a coming. Brucetee keeps saying things could change. SURE. And barry waiving regulation for his buddy BP was not a factor in worse oil leak in Gulf...

the house figure head,john"double bogey" boehner,nice guy, but not much when it comes to original thinking.is still out there trying to sell the same old ideas,that are in large part,the reason that were in this fiscal debacle.

the real power behind all this is grover norquest.when it comes to the reality of taxes and revenues,grover has always been some what tweaked on the subject.

It amazes me that all those calling for "entitlement reform" on Social Security and Medicare, do not and will not need it.
