Lets say a fat cat was going to buy a yacht for 100,000 but due to tax increases he decides not too. Ok now uncle Sam gets the 100,000. What does uncle do with it? He “redistributes” it , so now one yacht is converted into 30,000 bottles of Night Train. The stimulative effect of one yacht on the economy is lost in return for the stimulative effect of 30,000 puking winos.
Heh, heh... $100,000 will buy you a boat... not a yacht.
