And the more you raise taxes on businesses and the "rich", the more incentive you give them to move out of the US and set up business elsewhere. Why do you think that all the automotive makers are moving out of Michigan and to low tax areas like Kentucky, Alabama, etc.? Is it because Kentucky has a better workforce? No, it's because they are offered better tax incentives. Meanwhile the people of MI are buying the politicians bunk that taxes need to be raised in order to better support the poor. At the rate they are going the whole state will be poor very shortly and then who do they raise taxes on? Obama is being very honest when he tells everyone that he intends to help grow the middle-class of this country. He grand illusion is the fact that no one seems to care that he plans to grow the middle-class by bringing the upper-class down into the middle, not by bringing the lower-class up.

I would think lowing taxes to increase government revenue would only work if the money is funneled back into the US economy in a productive way. So if the money from tax cuts is distributed to big corporations who use it to invest in offshore projects, and the benefits of that investment stay mostly in that country, that doesn't really help us. If you cut taxes on the very upper tier of the income brackets, and they just put that money away to increase their personal capital or sock it away in other countries so as to avoid paying taxes on the income it generates, that doesn't help us either. Now if you cut taxes for lower and middle class Americans, and small businesses, they will spend that extra money. Then it is productive and increases demand, which produces jobs, and increases government revenue. Anyway that's how I see it. Trickle down economics doesn't work. If you believe the people who say it does, take a careful look at which end of the income spectrum they are on - maybe they have a reason for wanting you to believe it. > -----Original Message----- > From: Tim Vander Kooi [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Friday, October 31, 2008 10:41 AM > To: NT System Admin Issues > Subject: RE: So... how is the recession affecting your buying decisions? > > Except for the fact, that lowering taxes is how you increase revenue to > the government.
