Which means we have to cherish what precious little bit of manufacturing and other jobs we still have left in this country, not kick them [business] in the teeth and tell them they have to tow the line because they are the cause of all out woes. Business cannot bail this country out if business cannot prosper, and so far, business, other than banks and certain related companies, have been set up to fail. They're afraid to hire new employees, they're laying off existing employees, they're afraid to spend money, they're afraid to expand, they're waiting for the other shoe to drop (higher taxes , expiration of the Bush tax cuts, and high inflation). "Trickle down" is better than being dry as a bone. John Kennedy knew that, and so did Ronald Reagan. Until someone comes up with a better idea, and trust me, Obama has not, we need to follow what worked in the past, not abandon all hope and throw ourselves on the mercy of the fates, or worse yet, on what has failed everywhere it's been tried. England now has a top tier income tax rate of 50% and a value added tax (national sales tax) of 17.5%, which will tax whatever you have left over to spend after the income tax. And it will go even worse here, because our debt has grown higher than England ever imagined.
Finally, you're coming to your senses!:laugh:
