BTTT.
I call BS to the increase in the passed Congress Minimum Wages which increased July 2008 and will increase again July 2009.
I call BS to Obama’s/Congress’ stimulus plan. if he/they really wanted to stimulate the economy WITHOUT a power grab he/they would be doing these things:
1. Decrease the Corporate Tax Rate equal to Ireland's/Poland's.
2. Decrease Capital Gains Tax to 10%
3. Decrease Taxes on Savings Account
4. Personal Income Taxes:
4a. For one year extreme decrease in marginal rates
4b. Slowly increase the marginal rates over the next seven years.
5. For manufactures decrease depreciation
And for those who want less regulation: Close the EPA. Once Pelosie/Reid/Obama pass the Cow Tax, there will be a bunch of people supporting an EPA shut down. ; )
All you say is true. It’s amazing how inept our “leaders” are at grasping the basic problems with our economic system.
