>If you took away all taxes on dividends and capital gains, millions of worker bees would grow financial wings. There would be a much higher incentive to work and save, and many more people moving from the middle to upper class.

Yes, growth is our only hope to get out of the current mess, but cutting expenditures has to happen as well. The entitlements are on a track to ruin us unless drastically scaled back. The economy simply cannot grow fast enough to keep up with the rate of growth of the entitlements.

>But the democrats are going to make sure that never happens. They will bust you up every 20 years or so.

There’s that problem as well. Hell they’ll probably prevent any meaningful entitlement reform and we’re screwed anyway.

Not arguing with that. Dept. of Energy and Education: Implode! FDR dismantled angelicas, why can’t we?
