Restoring Self Respect in America

of course.......why would the governing fiscal principle of an Administration have anything to do with economic performance?

Supply Side Idiocy, Part Deux

promoted the de-regulatory fervor which ranked as the major cause of the crisis (according to the FCIC report)

stripped the fiscal cupboard bare, leaving essentially no resources to deal with the Great Recession

while federal outlays grew at a rate of nearly 8% per year (with the Pentagon budget nearly doubling in NOMINAL terms over 8 years), personal income tax receipts (on an annualized basis) fell from 1049 billion in q2 2001 to 853 billion in Q2, 2009......

Supply Side Idiocy, Part Deux was worse for the US than 9/11, Pearl Harbor, and ACA COMBINED

Deregulation such as Sarbanes-Oxley? Or did I miss deregulation legislation that was passed?
 
Some of us care about being informed........

Click on the photo.....see the fat guy on the far left?

If you are so informed please share with us what deregulation you feel caused the crash.

And yeah, I know Oxley personally so I am quite familiar with the legislation. Thank you.

I'm not in the habit of such reductionism......not being very simple minded, I can handle a confluence of causes....

If you had paid attention you would have noticed that I informed you that regulatory laxity topped the list of causes - according to the FCIC...

His proctologist knows Oxley better than you do.....doesn't mean he/she has any idea what the legislation was intended to achieve.
 
So you can't point out how supply side created the crash not what deregulation caused the crash.

Kind of sucks when you are a partisan hack and have to twist things to fit in a box you want to create doesn't it.

I did......you hissed more irrelevant crap, as anticipated....but you did manage to "drop a name".....

you do realize that you have yet put up anything, right?

Your whole premise was Supply Side part deux was a failure but you haven't chosen to show why you believe that or attempted to back up what supply side policies drove the crash.

If you want to discuss that true causes of the crash, such as the gov't push for greater home ownership and the Fed juicing the housing bubble with low rates then feel free.

That Supply Side, Part Deux was a miserable failure is manifest in the numbers.......I'm amazed to see that there remain people denying that obvious fact.

I explained the features of Supply Side which enabled to devastation.......the demand for a discreet cause is your canard.....

Why would the causes you list be any more true than those identified by the FCIC?
 
America is on the way back already, will take awhile to undo Obama, but we are on the way and will probably be stronger than ever having learned our lesson

do you know what supply side is or is it just a boogeyman term you like to throw around?
 
We are witnessing a resurrection of sorts, back to nuts and bolts capitalism.

American workers put before all else, lower taxes, less regulations on the jobs makers, on the coal industry, etal.

The word ILLEGALS being attached to people that come here ILLEGALLY, rather than being referred to as simply immigrants, which they are not.

Serving notice to Asaad, Kim Jung, Putin and anyone else that wants to tread on our leadership standing in the world.

Taking care of our veterans, our police officers.
Supreme court that will uphold the constitution

It's a great time to be an American again, almost lost it there
 
What are you anxious to "undo"?

To what "lesson" are you referring?

How will we know when we arrive?

undoing the Obama job killing regulations, the handcuffs being put on our law enforcement, the sanctuary mentality being given to people here illegally

the 'lesson' we learned is what happens when you put a completely unqualified person in the WH simply because he is black and want to make some sort of "we shall overcome" statement with the most sacred of positions in our governance

we will know we have 'arrived' when our children are treated fairly on the basis of merit, when our authority figures are free to protect us without fear of the PC police, when our youth can find decent jobs, when I buy my healthcare and you buy yours, (imagine) but if you truly can't the system is there for you, temporarily until you stand up again.
 
Why am I still answering YOUR questions?

Are you capable of reciprocating?

I'm prepared to bet that I know more about the origins of "Supply Side" than you....

Bush was a big gov't conservative. If you know so much about the origins of Supply Side then you would know W wasn't one. Clinton cut capital gains taxes. Did that make him a supply sider?
