Trump almost eliminated not only illegal immigration but also human trafficking and slowed the flow of drugs across the southern border. He sent a clear message that we didn't want thousands of unskilled, uneducated people coming into our country and overtaxing an already stressed healthcare and welfare system.
Trump looked out for American citizens, he got us out of the Middle East, he made us energy independent and made better trade deals. All these things helped American citizens. Biden is dismantling all these gains and going in the wrong direction. Wait until people file their taxes next year and wait until they have to heat their homes next winter.313 Reply- +1 y

How is anyone blaming trump? Biden has to deal with the unaccompanied minors.
The rest of that crowd can be sent back.
I mean, you are a trumper so you don't know what you are talking about anyway. I guess the criticism you hear is Biden has to track down all the families trump separated and reunite those children with their parents. It is on us to reunite the families, but again, once that is done they need to be sent back.00 Reply - +1 y
Do you think they are going to take the blame for something they did. It is easier to blame Trump. THE DEMOCRATIC COMMUNIST PARTY OF AMERICA is trying destroy America and is well on their way to doing so. Cuba and Argentina here we come lock stock and barrel

So trumptards are worried about a burden on tax payers now that a dem is president?
Were you upset about the burden on tax payers when trump was running trillion dollar deficits and added $2 trillion in debt with tax cuts for the rich that did nothing for the economy?225 Reply- +1 y
Those tax cuts factually did do a lot though. I try to remain apolitical when it comes to economics. He worked a lot of expansionary fiscal policy and it worked well. When you provide tax cuts for corporations, it allows for firms to hire more people and grow faster, thus leading to higher employment and competitive pay. Democratic fiscal policy has had its place throughout American history, but a federal minimum wage, higher taxes on corporations all serve a purpose of contracting the economy rather than stimulating it. Which I needed at times. Implanting Bidens tax plan right now would collapse the entire economy. This is why little of his plan is being implemented anytime soon.

The rich in this country are the entrepreneurs, and they treat and look at money through business rather than from a personal perspective. When you “tax” the rich, you tax the corporations. You’re not actually taking money away from people like Jeff Bezos. You take money from Amazon in that scenario. Jeff Bezos left now, but this is simply to illustrate a point.

@Not_Average corporations used the tax cuts for stock buy backs, they didn't hire people. companies hire more people when they get more business, not because they get a tax break. quit regurgitating reich wing propaganda and think for yourself.
50 years of data prove that tax cuts for the rich don't trickle down, don't stimulate the economy, and only help the rich get richer. See study below. I'm hoping your response will include a post a legitimate study from a credible source proving they do trickle down, and stimulate the economy.

I’m an engineer by day, but I’ve been taking Econ courses online at university just to better educate myself. I can post some print outs of textbooks when I find the time. That’s an opinion piece and while there are constants, it’s a dismal science. The circular flow diagram clearly illustrates that’s money flows from firms to the people. There’s no denying that.
- +1 y
You can see here the Aggregate demand (AD) shifts to the left to (AD1) with contractionary fiscal policy, thus lowering real GDP.

Higher taxation on firms serves as a contractionary force. That's not what the economy needs right now considering the goal is to stimulate and get the velocity of money to a higher rate.

There are benefits to stock buybacks, and every firm has their own strategy of growth. It benefits the firm as it can create growth if it's applied correctly. Also, almost all Americans are investors given the 401k.

@Not_Average no my question Biden housing them in the US instead of not allowing them to cross the border is a huge burden on taxpayers. Someone has to pay for it.

Literally any economist recognizes that tax increases are a contractionary economic tool utilized at particular points of a cycle. They aren’t inherently bad or good. Taxation is a tool to influence the economy in a particular direction. The federal reserve recognizes this. Jerome Powell says these things every press conference. Contractionary economic tools are needed to taper down bubbles without collapsing an entire sector. This economic principle has been recognized since Adam Smith started started the studies of Econ. This is a very basic principal taught at any level of economics. If you want to partake in some petty bullshit in which you outro your sentences with nonsensical jabs such as fail, then I have no desire to continue this. I thought I’d try to seek a constructive conversation without refraining to petty insults, but clearly this cannot be accomplished. The emotional maturity with grown adults is depreciating at a rapid pace and this is one of the major factors as to why there’s so much division. Adults possess an inability to articulate opposing views without insult. It’s a ridiculous concept. How do we critically think through complex issues when our emotion renders all thoughts of logic or comprehension null. It’s impossible.

You’ll continue to call people trumptards and refrain to elementary bully school tactics in an attempt to validate your narrative. Others will respond by trying to put you down for your views. It’s a useless cycle. Continue to cheerlead for a particular side blind to the fact that you’re being manipulated. A lot of republicans fall victim to the same idealogy. We need free thought.

“ Expansionary fiscal policy occurs when the Congress acts to cut tax rates or increase government spending, shifting the aggregate demand curve to the right. Contractionary fiscal policy occurs when Congress raises tax rates or cuts government spending, shifting aggregate demand to the left.”
courses.lumenlearning.com/.../ - Opinion Owner+1 y
@Not_Average We're not talking about tax increases and general textbook theory, the specific issue that you keep dodging is whether tax cuts for the rich stimulate the economy and create jobs. And any credible economist who isn't a fascist partisan hack will say: no.
Again i'll direct you to a study with 50 years of hard data, not academic theory, say tax cuts for the rich do nothing for the economy.
eprints.lse.ac.uk/.../...or_tax_cuts_published.pdf - +1 y
Factually GDP rises with expansionary fiscal policy, which means tax cuts for corporations. There’s an inverse effect. They raise taxes when they want to control rampant inflation and ease down a bubble. Government economist and the fed both fully recognize the tools of raising taxes. You can’t expect me to read a 50 page study. Nor can I expect you to be able to decipher everything written in it. This isn’t just textbook theory. These are constant principles that have been widely recognized by every economist in the world for many years. If you’re battling deflationary measures or unemployment, then you lower corporate taxes as a way to stimulate and increase employment and the velocity of money. Economic markets are cyclical, and therefore one set of economic tools shouldn’t always be implemented. You need a series of tools that combat different issues that arise within an economy. These are categorized as expansionary and contractionary fiscal/monetary policy.
