So, let me get this straight...

Cutting taxes at the top hoping for wealth to trickle down onto the workers is good...

But raising minimum wage to induce the very effect that trickle down hopes to achieve, oh that's bad.

lol

We should be cutting the federal income tax on the 52% of eligible taxpayers who do not pay any federal income tax.

@sunsporter1649 You're in one of those legal weed states, eh?

I have heard the same darn thing from the democrats as long as I can remember. Why do the democrats think they can spend my money better than I can?

@sunsporter1649 Well, you seem to think that taxes can be cut on people who don't pay taxes. That might have something to do with it.

Since the lower 52% of the people do not pay taxes, it seems only logical that the upper 48%, who do pay federal income taxes, would be the only folks who deserve a tax break.

@sunsporter1649 Then there will be even fewer taxpayers. Anyway, that's not what your original comment said. It was nonsense in fact. Hence why I speculated you might be under the influence. Also, "Lower 52% of people" sounds pretty snobbish and elitist.
