This little graphic says what I've been saying all along.

1. A great chart, shows how trickle down never works.

6. "more for the Boss means less for you"-- so trickle-down can never happen. End of that theory

2. That little graphic ignores at least a couple of things

(1) It assumes that much of that tax saings is re-invested in business when in fact a considerable amount is used to fund consicious consumption and set aside as saviings.

(2) The portion of tax savings that is used to create jobs just might be creating employment opportunities in China - not here in the US.



I'm not defending flat taxes - just pointing out that the graphic is more than a bit misleading and oversimplified.

3. The tax code can be written

to not provide a benefit for investments overseas.

5. "trickle down" is a flop. Look around you...at 30 years of it. We need Ike's tax again for the Golde

Golden Age again. Jobs, prosperity...'45 - '64.

7. Sounds right to me.

But then I have the ability to think.
Unfortunately many on the right have lost that ability.
