No, fukk outta here with this nonsense. Your people are the ones who said fukk the American economy when they passed tax cuts that ballooned the deficit. There were multiple studies showing how damaging those cuts would be yet I don’t remember you speaking up then. Worker salaries have barely budged and jobs are still getting moved overseas, yet corporations are seeing healthy profit growth. But here you are sputtering like a true conservative business owner.
No plan is perfect but Progressives are trying to actually repair the damage from your side and protect people from the corporations that you love so much. It’s not a coincidence that the economy does better under democrats than republicans, but I’m sure you knew that.
Your obsession with protecting corporations that are trying to bleed the country dry is
The right voted a conman into office, passed the most regressive tax cut imaginable, embraces the fact that American CEOs earn ungodly salaries while trying to bust up unions, and treats corporations as if they’re people... all while claiming to protect the real Americans.
But according to @DEAD7 and probably @Slystallion, it was the left who said fukk the American economy for trying to get more wealth into the hands of everyday Americans.
The mental gymnastics required to reach that conclusion is outstanding.

Like I said, capital flight and business dislocation mean nothing to progressives at this point. It’s become a holy crusade against the 1%.
Surely you can’t believe making it more advantageous to do business outside of America is helping American workers?
Business friendly policies with increased minimum wages* and reduced healthcare cost is imho, the way to go.
when Obama was in office I heard the HL lefties claiming the debt/deficit spending doesn’t matter... now that rethugs have openly embraced it, it’s unconscionable.

And I have no problem or real interest in CEO pay or the pay of any other American not in public service...I don’t believe it’s a zero sum game that requires pocket watching.
Trump’s tax cuts are already making some businesses move overseas and/or close production in the US though. It’s already happening.@Gus Money

Business friendly policies haven’t worked out so well for the average worker since... ever. I’m ok with trying something new and seeing what happens. It’s not like average workers can lose wealth at a higher rate.
The difference is that the right is trying to use the debt/deficit that they created as an excuse to slash social welfare programs. We know it doesn’t matter to everyday Americans.
Trumps approach(lower taxes, deregulation) generally lowers barriers to entry into industries, which assists with improving innovation, entrepreneurship, competition, and efficiency, this(in theory) leads to lower prices for customers and improved quality... with the corporations(if any) big enough to uproot and leave because the tax reform was net negative for them(as you suggest), not really being who I think anyone wants to defend.
I expect this year to be surprisingly strong on paper for those at the top and the bottom, despite all the criticism, and I fully expect the left to credit some nonexistent Obama policy.
Those in the middle...
We are diametrically opposed on welfare programs so that just is what it is... I don’t see the issue there
HL voted this clown in as POTY and a mod.

The good old “the markets will save us” argument. Like I said, we’ve got decades of evidence that business friendly politics don’t do jack shyt to help the masses. You just said yourself that those in the middle are gonna get screwed so there’s no reason for you to continue supporting this nonsense.Trumps approach(lower taxes, deregulation) generally lowers barriers to entry into industries, which assists with improving innovation, entrepreneurship, competition, and efficiency, this(in theory) leads to lower prices for customers and improved quality... with the corporations(if any) big enough to uproot and leave because the tax reform was net negative for them(as you suggest), not really being who I think anyone wants to defend.

I have absolutely no idea why you’d think that those at the bottom will do well either. That doesn’t even make sense.
