Last Sunday, two different network shows noted that corporations are hoarding NEARLY TWO TRILLION DOLLARS, yet Republicans think all we need to do is give them a massive tax cut to convince them to start creating jobs out of the goodness of their heart.

(this video too me a while to edit, so be kind.)

2. If you give a rich person a tax cut...
If you give a tax cut to a rich persona a tax cut, they will use the money to buy a yacht and hire someone to scrape the barnacles off it.
Trickle down capitalism at its finest.
That is how the rich provide jobs for this economy.
Hooray!

3. That's what Reagan said...
...all we need to do is give them a massive tax cut to convince them to start creating jobs.

It didn't work then...it won't work now.

Why the GOP keeps saying it will is beyond me...:eyes:

8. "Mars: the Bringer of War" from "The Planets"...
...by Gustav Holst.

I don't think it was coincidental: we are, after all, in a "culture war."

11. Oh I bet! I 'betcha' they would start investing to create jobs if they got a tax cut instead of
corporations sitting on their money right now. I can believe they would do it to create 'economic history'. They really don't care a wink do they....
