"Well think about it. What would tax cuts stimulate? Outside of moving money to lower income people who have higher marginal propensity to consume, no benefit that I can see."

It would do some good...in the USA of yesterday.

A working class man isn't even allowed to make useful little gadgets out of circuit components by himself. The corporate-sucking, anti-competition committees (planning and zoning fascists in most counties) have outlawed all useful kinds of small businesses.

There's nothing conservative, properly capitalistic or American about today's government or big business at any level. Although there's no single, comprehensive, great conspiracy to do so, we're seeing a many-pronged campaign of economic cleansing. It just sort of came together that way, but our superiors dismiss it with their yearning for depopulation (to the extent of decreasing the big number to a half a billion--the estimated population of their beloved, filthy Renaissance).
