Quote:But you haven't made that point. You haven't answered a single substantive question about these kinds of trade agreements. All you've managed to do is throw out phrases like "seat at the table" which sound weighty, but haven't discussed what these treaties do to, or for, the signatories.
I included this in my initial post to ... make a larger point. Which is that Trump and idiots like you who don't understand how important these agreements are, are jut that, idiots and bad for America. - THUGR

Don't hold your breath Sigs. I've been waiting for several days for somebody to give me a reason why Trump's Pocahontas comment was a racial slur, but nobody can give me an actual answer. The best I got was "if you don't know, I'm not going to tell you."
Do Right, Be Right. :)

You'd have to revamp the tax structure because it's far too easy for corporations and transnational elites to declare their profits in tax havens, or hide their wealth in "instant" subsidiaries and foundations
So, Lower Tax Rate results in Higher Tax Revenue for the Taxing Authority, and Higher Tax Rate results in Lower Tax Revenue. Or, more precisely, LOSS of Tax Revenue.
Pretty logical.Quote:Is this another endorsement of Consumption Tax? Reason may be dawning.
If it were me, I'd simply drop the tax rate but also eliminate specialized deductions, exemptions, expenses, depreciations, subsidies, etc.Quote:
OH BTW- JSF- that concept that lower rates increvase tax revenues has been disproved over and over and over again. That is a misapplication of a concept called the aptly-named "Laffer Curve". Every tax-cutting Republican President - including Reagan- sang that song, and every one of them was proved wrong, as demonstrated by the history of actual government revenues versus tax rates.
Before you forward an idea like this, it would be useful to look up actual numbers to see if it's been validated by reality.
Please provide a valid example of this: identify one time when LOWERING the Federal Tax RATE resulted in LESS Federal Tax Revenues.
I guess "Reaganomics Denier" is a thing now, another version of Libtard Surreality.
A chorus of crickets.

I understand that under Trump, black unemployment has fallen to the lowest level in 17 years.
I am shocked, just shocked I say, that I have not heard the MSM uncover this fact.
