Warren Buffet sure talks a good game

Actually increasing taxes can benefit the economy in quite a few ways, first it ultimately results in a lower inflation rate, second it allows funding of much needed public services...something people absolutely refuse to admit we need and the private sector will often not subsidize, for example building roaRAB, upkeep on government property and funding the states creates jobs, funding education creates economic opportunities...

Third, artificially low taxes on capital gains and the rich relatively punishes the middle class, the group largely responsible for the spending that fuels economic growth. Economic growth is largely demand side not supply side.

Latin America has become full of dirty socialist states flush with cash with booming economies and specifically booming middle classes which is driving unprecedented levels of growth in the region. It is in fact true that when taxation and government spending open up opportunity for the majority of the country instead of the top 1% and fraction therein the economy grows.
 
It's easy to say "shit's broken, we should do the opposite" but really aren't always opposites in economics so your plan isn't a plan at all without getting specific.
 
are you comparing apples to collatoralized mortgage obligations? Financial products are financial products. I want to give you money to invest, you take it and invest it. This is a government handout to Bank of America and Warren Buffet
 
No I'm not forgetting that at all...but you're confused....all that shit started while Bush was still President. Hell fucking Bush signed the first bailout....TARP I think it was.
 
No look....the fucking Republaderps have been asking for deregulation and lower taxes on the rich.

Bush takes office after Clinton gives him over a $100 billion surplus!! SURPLUS!

In 8 short years....Bush and the Republaderps fucked us.

Bush senior took shit because he said, "No new taxes...then had to raise them." Sonny boy wasn't going to do the same......and it's fucking our economy severely.

What's the Republaderps plan.....MORE TAX CUTS.

Or raise taxes on the middle class.

Wake up man.
 
Companies are absolutely flush with cash right now but aren't using that money to hire more people. Weird, your rhetorical argument doesn't account for the lack of demand due to the transfer of wealth from the middle class to the rich over the last couple decades.
 
what do you want to regulate and how will that regulation increase economic output?

how does increasing taxes increase economic output?
 
You know why don't you?

Because he would rather pay more in taxes than watch 1/2 of his stocks value disappear in a few months.


Fucking Republaderps and their stupid debt ceiling made up crisis that causes is to have our fucking credit rating down graded....for the first time in the HISTORY of this country.....235 years and yep, the fucking Republicans caused it because they REFUSED to raise taxes on the rich.

It's fucking retarded....so he's going to make bank while he can......literally!
 
Do you have billions to invest and a history of being a stable investor?

You realize that many funRAB won't allow you to invest because 1) you're more of a pain in the ass than your small amount of money is worth 2) you're not known for being a steady investor.

They wouldn't sell those same products to a hedge fund manager known for practices that may hurt them either.
