If your job is at stake, vote your pocketbook.
Don't listen to the corp. media hype abortion, guns, gay marriage and
other social issues.

Absolutely. So don't be fooled by goofy delusional beliefs
that tax hikes cure recessions. Tax hikes (and spending cuts)
can cause recessions. Just ask John Maynard Keyes. Nobel
Prizewinners in economics are more to be trusted than envious
turds who post graffiti while they wait in the unemployment line.

Yes, instead stick to your guns. Tax hikes are just limosine liberals
way of reducing the competition for luxury items like yachts and
private jets.
Tax the liberals. It's the only way.

Workers ultimately get exploited and screwed in socialist economies
too. The socialist economies that appear to be working are the ones
that have a free-market ally that they can latch onto like parasites.
The only way to stay out of recession is to keep economic growth above
5%% per year. At this point, U.S. GDP has grown so large that the only
way to keep the growth going is to use U.S. capital to fire up
emerging markets. If we remove all the capital from the system and
give it to the government then there will be less available to fuel
global economic growth.

First, thanks for not hyping guns to get the very dumb trailer park
trash high school dropout to vote GOP.

Free health care, free higher education. 1 - 2 months vacation, higher
wages no fundies not looneytarians.
Sounds good to me.

So what does that have to do with the high tax Clinton economic boom,
the longest expansion in the history of the republic?

Sounds like Bill Clinton knew how to do that:
The highestest taxes ever.

Cuba and N. Korea sound good to you?

Those are the "welfare states" which technically aren't socialist - or
mostly have abandoned it. They have learned to maintain a capitalist
core which provides the wealth which they can loot. But their supposed
"free" healthcare, education, etc. is far from free. It comes with
both a very high (tax) price tag and very low GDP per capita - not to
mention relatively low economic growth accompanied by a demographic
time bomb which is slowly blowing up in their faces.

I don't expect much from the Heritage Foundation, but this one was truly
desparate. Noting that the economy did well after the Clinton tax hike, they
say correlation does not imply causality. Then they start to compare growth
after the tax hike and the later tax cut, and then say that correlation DOES
imply causality.
Truth is, taxes have no apparent effect. The business cycle is all monetary
policy and bubbles. Which is OK by me so long as the growth periods stongly
outweigh the sluggish periods.
