For those who remember the record-breaking era of economic prosperity that was the Reagan years, you will be happy to learn that the Team Trump is at this very moment receiving advice from some of the most influential economic policy advisers who helped shape that Reagan-era success.
Names like Laffer, Moore, and Kudlow were once synonymous with an America that saw itself push back from the deep doldrums of the Carter economic morass, and Team Trump, with the encouragement of Trump campaign supervisor Paul Manafort, is now working to bring a version of that 1980’s success to 2017 and beyond.
“American jobs for American workers.”
So goes the mantra inside the still-developing Trump economic platform. Job creation is rivaled only by the subject of national security as priorty #1 for the New York billionaire – and now Arthur Laffer, Stephen Moore, and Larry Kudlow are all on board helping to see that job creation goal go from the realm of hopeful to reality and doing so by eliminating top tier tax deductions and most importantly, expanding the tax-payer base while delivering much-needed tax relief to the long-embattled American Middle Class.

What is old is new again.
what would a stock market look like when Trump wins?
what would a stock market look like if Hillary won?
Perfect!
Those are the 3 he needs to be talking with!
That’s really nice.
when I was a young person I worked very hard in NC to get Reagan elected. Now that I am much older, I will work very hard to get Trump elected.
Go Trump!!
Well, socialism and Krony Banker Gangster Capitalism don’t seem to work well for The People...
Kudlow is very much a free labor express guy. He has a show here on Saturday. I no longer listen to him.
“A secure Nation MEANS More Jobs!”
Maria Bartilomo addressed that same question a few days ago and she said the markets would “soar” if Trump gets in. Yep.
This is the main reason why I believe that Newt Gingrich will be his V.P. . . . he was YUGE in the fight for the balanced budget - even made Bubbha look good (or at least the dems tell us so as they like to say he was such of great president for his role in saving the economy /SARC).
I stood in the long lines in NC to vote for Reagan.
You guys did a good job back then.
The lines will be Yuge this year.
On a serious note (or is it “series”), Donald Trump has the potential to surpass Ronald Reagan...and the potential to become worse than Benedict Arnold.
This speech, delivered in 1775 before the British Parliament, is a profound commentary on America's early experiment in liberty. Keeping in mind that it was delivered prior to our 1776 Declaration of Independence, Burke's observations, in retrospect, take on special meaning.
The speech traces the roots of liberty and its effects, including the unheard-of economic progress achieved in the colonies, utilizing charts and real figures to back his claims.
Today's politicians, who debate taxes and regulations, should be required to read this early history of America, when there was no government structure to interfere with free men and women creating a place of productivity and innovation which, eventually, became the literal breadbasket of the world.

Burke also enlightens our minds on the roots of the tremendous "spirit of liberty" Burke observes among the colonists; the hypocrisy of the position his British government was considering toward the colonists who, already, were rejecting it, and a wide variety of subjects related to our heritage as Americans.
A reading of these 90 pages would have the ability to enlighten present generations on the early history of America, of its tremendous explosion of goods and services even before the Year 1776, noted by Burke as being the result of a "spirit of liberty" existing among them.
He needs to be careful with that. Supply-side economics worked great when e-commerce, tele-work, and easy outsourcing to foreign countries did not exist and transoceanic shipping was slow, risky, and expensive.
Now that only reason for a corporate decision maker to hire an American citizen is because there is literally no other choice, supply-side has led to wage stagnation and the current malaise.
With all due respect to the family and supporters of the late President Reagan, and I was one of them, while Reagan was a conservative he wasn’t necessarily aware that a previous generation of state sovereignty-respecting justices had clarified the following about Congress’s power to appropriate taxes.
The Court had clarified that Congress is prohibited from appropriating taxes in the name of state power issues, essentially any issue that Congress cannot justify under its constitutional Article I, Section 8-limited powers.
“Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States.” —Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
Patriots not only need to get Trump and his advisors up to speed on Congress’s limited power to appropriate taxes, but they also need to amend that excerpt to the Constitution.
From a related thread …
In fact, based on the Courts statement above, here is a rough approximation of how much taxpayers should be paying Congress annually to perform its Section 8-limited power duties.
Given that the plurality of clauses in Section 8 deal with defense, and given that the Department of Defense budget for 2015 was $500+ billion, I will generously round up the $500+ billion figure to $1 trillion (but probably much less) as the annual price tag of the federal government to the taxpayers.
In other words, the corrupt media, including Obama guard dog Fx Noise, should not be reporting multi-trillion dollar annual federal budgets without mentioning the Supreme Court’s clarification of Congresss limited power to appropriate taxes in budget discussions.
Remember in November !
When patriots elect Trump, they need to also elect a new, state sovereignty-respecting Congress that will not only work within its Section 8-limited powers to Trump’s vision as an expert business person to make America great again, but also put a stop to unconstitutional federal taxes, such taxes arguably stolen state revenues.
Also consider that such a Congress would probably be willing to fire state sovereignty-ignoring activist justices.
Looks to me as though Trump is on the correct course to put this country back on track.
Not a problem at all. Thank you for your considerate message.
putting the band back together?
