    Why the admin of this forum allows you to continue hanging around, stinking up the place with your childish, juvenile insult hurling is beyond me.

    You're lucky your mother has a basement for you to live in and mooch off of her, otherwise you'd be just another homeless bum living in the woods.

    Average people who vote Republican are mindless sheep.
    100% of what welfare, food stamp, government housing, Obamacare subsidy, and any other social program leeches received last year was something they didn't do a damn thing to earn nor pay the taxes to fund.

    The people that live off such programs don't deserve what they get. If it weren't for those you constantly chastise paying into the pot, the POS leeches wouldn't have one to take from.

    The social welfare leeches are lucky those you constantly chastise pay what the do in the way of taxes. Otherwise, those wastes wouldn't have a pot to piss in or a window to throw it out of because they damn sure have shown they won't do for themselves.

    Technology and globalization are what's driving this amazing advancement in wealth and also the inequality that comes with it.

    As far as why our tax code needed to be reformed was due to the U.S. wanting to continue to foster competitiveness across the globe.

    Th premise of the article in the OP and arguing about tax cuts are two different things. Not the right way to try and make this argument

    The top 1% includes individual income earners, not corporations.

    But the answer to your question is to make American corporations competitive to keep from losing jobs abroad and to give an incentive for Apple and other corporations to bring home the trillions stashed abroad. If you read about the benefits, raises, and bonuses it is also helping American workers.
    So the argument boils down to an assertion that the rest of the world is even more unjust than we are, and so to be attractive for the haves to do business here, and to get them to continue injustice to the have nots here, we must meet the terms of injustice abroad.
    The Republican party stands for American workers being treated like the poorest sweatshops in the world. They can use penny an hour labor there and sell here at full retail markup to our underpaid workers. Gotcha. Nice plan for survival of the US worker!

    Thanks Republicans!

    Money post. I would emphasize with "a vast chasm of unacceptable inequality and poverty everywhere, including the US, the demise of a belief in
    the American dream and a new paradigm where children believe they will not do as well as their parents.

    The answer is not to just accept that. It's to succeed blazing our own path. Training the best, working the best, and paying the best.

    The Republican race to the bottom aka follow the global herd off the cliff policy is horrible.

    Then, to make matters worse, we have stupid hillbilly janitors like CFM and zit-faced punk fast food flunkies like Truth Deflector applauding them for it because they want to be members of the "winners club".

    Right-wingers are flat out brain dead.

    The alternative is not to compete and lose the jobs we have. I haven't seen any differences between liberal and conservative policies on these issues.

    I consider the leeches that constantly demand what others have earned as worthless lowlifes that deserve nothing.

    I don't live where your whore mother does her business. She has to go to the trailer parks.

    I'm already a winner. Unlike those you think deserve anything another person earned, I pay my own way. Unlike the 1 in 3 1/2 blacks that use food stamps and 1 in 8 blacks that use welfare, I don't rely on hardworking people to pay my way. I do it myself. You should try it sometime. It will make you a better person.

    You will probably have a stroke, when you realise that it's only a matter of time before governments will have to pay people a living wage. The rise of AI will effectively destroy many many jobs, even yours whatever that is.
