Today we have a similar debate over this. Anyone know what this is? Class? Anyone? Anyone? Anyone seen this before? The Laffer Curve. Anyone know what this says? It says that at this point on the revenue curve, you will get exactly the same amount of revenue as at this point. This is very controversial. Does anyone know what Vice President Bush called this in 1980? Anyone? Something-d-o-o economics. "Voodoo" economics.

There were a couple of things wrong with Reaganomics, but the most visible problem was the drive to deregulate nearly every market in sight, which led to the savings and loan collapse which ended up costing the government 125 billion dollars. That was pretty fucking bad :D

Not to mention the collapse of the housing market which screws over oh so many people.

I wonder if financial institutions didn't think taxpayers would bail them out if they would take the risks they take.

Ok how about we do this. Was suggested to me buy my father in law( a dirt poor dirt farmer in ND)

So CEO of company makes $1mill a year. You dont need $1mill a year to live(honestly). So you take CEO and give him 9 helpers. Everyone including CEO gets 100k a year and we are all happy. Not only did we get rid of un-employment but we also all share the wealth.

If only it were that simple.

r u serious. Everyone except the CEO who just got fucked out of 900k.
