Is this one of those "do you work for a poor person" type comments? The rich aren't the only ones who create jobs. Well, at least in the past they weren't. That's the problem. Who opens sandwich shops and other restaurants? Clothing stores? Dry cleaners? Auto-repair places? Metal shops? Hint: it's not rich people. In order to really spread small business (which is the true backbone of the economy), you have to have a middle class with enough wealth to start even a small business. You don't need some billionaire.
But, since so many people, you included, have bought the lie that sending more money to the rich means more businesses, here we are: a ton of money at the top doing nothing, little money in the middle, no money at the bottom...and a choked economy.
If more money and lower taxes at the top means more business and a better economy, why are we where we are now? The money's all at the top, and the taxes are near the lowest they've ever been. So, what gives?
Oh right...it's a lie.
Hmm...good question. Who did it in the US between 1938 and 1980? Did no one invest capital in business in those years? And how robust was the us economy in those years vs. after 1980?
