  1. Fábio Souza Medeiros Jr Yes, it was built with high corporate taxes. That was before DEMOCRATS let ELEVEN MILLION ILLEGAL ALIENS INVADE OUR COUNTRY! It was before democrats strangled business with tons of regulations that DROVE THEM OUT OF THE COUNTRY. You want high taxes in Corporations? Move to California. Business is leaving like crazy! Thousands of jobs gone!!

  2. boh7em Corporations SHOULDN'T pay anything. They hire people and THOSE PEOPLE pay taxes. They make you an owner in the company through stock, and YOU pay as well as them on THE SALE of that stock. We don't tax foreign companies, so what tax OURS? to induce them to leave? You're not very smart are you? Corporations PRODUCE goods and services. Poor people that refuse to work, produce nothing but waste.

  3. boh7em That's an easy question. It's because it's the JOB that's important to society, to the WORKER, and his FAMILY and his COMMUNITY that counts. NOT the pittance the corporations pay that politicians PISS AWAY! And who do they give the money to? Those SAME newly unemployed workers! Those "rich" corporate suits STILL PAY TAXES like everyone else, and even at a higher rate. Let the company GROW and hire even more people! Easy!

  4. Joe A Joe.. You are 100% correct. If more people knew the FACTS like you, the entire nation would have voted for Trump. Great comment!!

  5. boh7em Hahaha. Just read what you said. Job creation and growth have nothing to do with taxes??? That's economy 101! If the government doesn't take a businesses money, then where does that money go? In a hole in the back yard? Even in the "wealthy" bank account, it is STILL loaned out to create GROWTH (you borrowed and bought a car) and jobs! Wake up and get off the socialist Kool aid. The government is the LAST place to give your money. Why do you think they are TWENTY TRILLION IN DEBT?

  6. My username is so obnoxiously long and there is absolutely nothing you can do about the matter Barahahaha what a fool. Think about it.. NINETY ONE PERCENT. Even you can't be that stupid to believe the rich paid that. Look at Buffet. He has very little "income" and therefore pays little to no INCOME TAX! Can you really be that stupid? Now how about JIMMY CARTER? Double digit inflation!! This is the GREATEST TAX on the poor. Now, the poor DONT PAY FEDERAL TAXES under Trump! Democrats have led EVERYTHING they created into near bankruptcy. Social security.. Public housing.. Public schools.. Food stamp program.. And the latest fiasco.. Obummer care!! I'll take Keynesian and trickle down economics ANY DAY!

  7. My username is so obnoxiously long and there is absolutely nothing you can do about the matter The past economic models don't necessarily apply now. Our spending habits benefit the Chinese more than us! What REALLY counts is the number of times money circulates through the economy. When the rich spend, it gets spent five more times. When the poor spend, it goes to China and is circulated there. In decades past, we never had the trade deficits that we do now. DEMOCRATS AGAIN! But, for the most part we agree.

  8. Give more to the poor so they can spend it in beer and cigarettes, and in boosting the economy. THE CHINESE ECONOMY. They take the money and spend it on junk made in China! Don't give them anything. The poor don't pay ANY FEDERAL TAX NOW!!

  9. Every year government spends. What they borrow becomes THE DEBT. Now for George Washington to George Bush the debt built to around TEN TRILLION. Then oba-mao got elected. In just EIGHT YEARS HE DOUBLED THE DEBT TO TWENTY TRILLION!! Now the democrats are moaning about ONE TRILLION (get this) over the next ten years!! A ten year total of one more trillion!!

  10. Bob upity Great comment!! 100% correct.

  11. My username is so obnoxiously long and there is absolutely nothing you can do about the matter Oh is that right? Why not spend two minutes checking your FACTS before you make a jerk of yourself. Here's the TRUTH.... During this time period, the stock market stayed in a trading range from October 1958 through March 1959 and then began an upward rally of over 50% which ended in July of 1959. The earnings yield on the S&P 500 during this time period was about 6% and the 10-year T-Bond yield was around 4%.

  12. My username is so obnoxiously long and there is absolutely nothing you can do about the matter And TRUMAN was president in back to back presidencies that WON IN LANDSLIDES! The first republican since 1928! So much for your dark times!

  13. My username is so obnoxiously long and there is absolutely nothing you can do about the matter By the way, there were only TWO recessions during the fifties ONE OF WHICH was caused by the demobilisation from the Korean War. The other lasted ten months. It was a GREAT DECADE.

  14. Joe A Thanks for the comment Joe. Finally, we have someone like you that knows what he's talking about! Too many poorly educated communist sympathisers on YouTube. Most are Bernie "I took my honeymoon in Moscow" Sanders supporters.

  15. Bob upity Great comment!! Democrats have no policies to keep them in power except class, race, and environmental warfare

  16. boh7em Here.. Maybe this will help... Each year, 4 million Americans turn 18 and begin looking for good jobs in the free market. But the federal government inflates the supply of new labor by annually accepting 1 million new legal immigrants, by providing work-permits to roughly 3 million resident foreigners, and by doing little to block the employment of roughly 8 million illegal immigrants.

  17. Ann Linley And rightfully so. Because without wealthy business, there are no jobs. Without jobs, no families, and without families, no peace and prosperity. Don't agree? Go to Cuba, Venezuela, North Korea, or any Socialist country that attacks business because they think they are "greedy". See how their people live. They want the wealthy to pay more. They want higher taxes on the rich. See how that has worked out for them.

  18. boh7em So, here's what YOU think is OK. A business risks their money to get started (losing it all if things don't go well) then IF they profit, the government taxes that profit, and what's left over is TAXED AGAIN as dividends (to our retirement fund) or the sale of the stock which I sold to make a profit for me! First the Corp. gets taxed, and then the stock holders a SECOND TIME. Then the government takes their share of the profit (which they took NO RISK in acquiring) and gives it to the people that will vote to keep them in power! DEMOCRATS!!

  19. Ann Linley Great comment Ann. You're exactly right. Most of these Bernie Sanders socialists never owned a Kool aid stand, much less than a business. Profits that business make goes into a higher stock price (our retirement acct. benefits) dividends (we benefit) or they just stick it in the bank to be loaned out (causing more growth as loans) But, as you wisely said, they can expand, modernize and out compete the rest of the world, KEEPING JOBS HERE!! Brilliant sister! You made a great comment!

  20. Ann Linley You're right. I lived in PA and it got so difficult to get started. Rules, regulations, taxes, licensing fees, fire inspections, building inspections, on and on. I moved to Missouri and BAM. I was in business in a few days with none of the headaches. No more Democrat states for me!

  21. Ann Linley. They feel guilty if they are doing well (the American dream!) or jealous and bitter of the rich, if they're not. But, I like what you said.. How many poor people do hiring? Ha! But, JOBS is not their goal. Money is. If own--lee the pooooor had money! Then everything would be better! We both know.. Poor us MUCH MORE than just having no money. If they DID have it, they'd pizz it away! This country NEVER promised you riches and success... Just a fighting chance at getting them. Liberals want you to SHARE that with those poor. Not a "safety net" mind you, but an easy chair!
