What happened to all of the doom and gloom economic threads?

[mercury14]

Yes.

But you will not understand why.

When government takes capital, either future or present, and spends it then it is more likely destroyed and unavailable for private sector expansion.

You see a failed factory built while I see a long-term and successful factory not built do to the positive interference of government (referencing Say, Bastiat and von Humboldt, you know, books...).

Moreover, you wrongly assume that profit was going for expansion. But as this age of high profits and low expansion proves, that's clearly not necessarily the case.

It isn't a "failed factory". It's part of a successful and growing company.

Why on earth would you call it that?

The gas station near me (in Ohio) has $3.10 on their sign. How long before we hear chants of an Obama conspiracy?

Nice to see Vette's obsession with men's asses and assholes is rubbing off on mini-Vette here.

I like your obsession with Vette, pereg. Still pissed he put you on iggy?.

 

[koalabear]

If they don't have a clue about new workers looking for work you can't say they have a clue when they stop looking. But that's one of your main rationalizations for criticizing the dropping unemployment rate - are you sure you want to let it go?



Yeah you keep spamming things about asses and penises, filling the void left by Vette's week of verbal self-control. Your comments have been noted.

There it is again, plus what is with all the U_D edits.

This is a good thing! Why? Because now people living below the poverty line are now slaves to Obama!

- 16,807,795 American households living below the poverty line in 2011

- total American taxpayer assistance going to those households in 2011: approximately $1 trillion

- $61,194 average taxpayer assistance per American household living below the poverty line in 2011

You keep using the term 'slaves' but I don't think you know what slaves are. Slaves are people who are forced to work their asses off. Are you saying Obama is forcing a ton of people to do a ton of work?

He's saying he's still happy to have his job at the BK French fry station.

Not really, people who have stopped looking are known to the government as they were registered as unemployed to start with. New workers? Who knows who's really looking for work and who's still living at home with mom.

People who stop looking for work are not necessarily registered as unemployed. Not even close. Where are you getting that?

If a working woman has a baby and decides to be a stay-at-home mom for a while are you saying she somehow has to register for unemployment benefits first?

[mercury14]

Most unemployed people in today's economy are not unemployed because they are pregnant or having a baby.

We're not talking about unemployed people, we're talking about people who left the work force.

 

[RobDownSouth]

We're not talking about unemployed people, we're talking about people who left the work force.

I see the Vettebigot is still trying to rationalize his long-term unemployment. There's just no jobs out there, none at all. Nope.

And it's all Obama's fault.

[mercury14]

People who have left the workforce aren't unemployed?

I'm talking about people who have given up looking for work because they can't find a job, or those formally fully employed who have to take part time work when they need full time work to make ends meet.

No, your whole premises is that they aren't being counted as unemployed. How come I have to make your argument for you nowadays? This shit has gotten to the point where I'm better at playing your hand than you are.

White House Ponders New Tax Cut





by

October 27, 2012 - 9:32 am


















If imitation is the most sincere form of flattery, Mitt Romney should be bursting with pride.

Is this the October surprise?





The White House is weighing the idea of a tax cut that it believes would lift Americans’ take-home pay and boost a still-struggling economy, according to people familiar with the administration’s thinking, as the presidential candidates continue battling over whose tax policies would do more for the country.

Obama administration officials have concluded that the economy, while improved, is still fragile enough that it may need another bout of stimulus. The tax cut could replace the payroll tax cut championed by President Obama in 2011 and 2012, which was designed as a buffer against economic shocks such as the financial crisis in Europe and high oil prices. It expires at year’s end.

The new tax cut could provide hundreds of dollars or more a year to workers and show up in every paycheck. It may be similar to a tax cut Americans received in 2009 and 2010, which provided up to $400 for individuals and $800 for married couples, sources close to the administration said.

The administration’s work on the proposal comes as each presidential candidate is under intense pressure to demonstrate he has the better tax plan. During the campaign, Obama has insisted that he wants to keep taxes from rising for the middle class while increasing them on the wealthy as a way of shoring up the country’s finances. His challenger, Mitt Romney, has sharply criticized Obama’s approach, saying any new taxes would crimp economic growth, while also calling the White House’s earlier stimulus efforts a failure.

The Romney campaign and top Republican lawmakers declined Friday to provide comment specifically about the tax cut being considered by the White House.

Romney’s plan would include reform as well as rate cuts so Obama’s cheap trick isn’t so much imitation as it is desperation. And there is nothing being said by the White House about corporate taxes — the highest in the developed world.

Clearly, the Romney tax plan has the Obama campaign worried and feel that they need to counter. It is doubtful many voters would buy into the president’s deathbed conversion on taxes, but any movement toward Obama at this point would be unwelcome.
