Again, what markets? Unless the consumer class is granted more money to spend, demand has not increased in any market. You can not stimulate demand through increasing production, which is what you're claiming. This is Economics 101 level stuff.
If what you're arguing were true, then I could start spending my time tying sticks into cross shapes and trying to sell them. And they'd sell, no matter how shitty they are, because I've invested in production. That, in your mind, automatically creates demand for whatever product I made. That's obviously not how anything works.
And plenty of other countries have tried similar issues, and had pretty broad success. You're cherry picking, and it's pretty blatant. There's a reason many developed nations have surpassed the USA in terms of quality of live indices.Your entire theory is pretty debunked when a larger economy like France has tried the redistribution approach and their economic growth has been abysmal.
If you are particularly bold, you could use a Shiny Ditto. Do keep in mind though, this will infuriate your opponents due to Ditto's beauty. Please do not use Shiny Ditto. You have been warned.
Those loopholes involve reducing your net taxable income somehow. You can't claim to have made $600 million in net income, and then brag about paying no taxes, not without having engaged in tax evasion. And if he made $600 million in gross income, then he's straight-up misleading people as to his actual wealth.
Yeah reality denial. As expected.
Here's a question for you. Demand is 10 units of output. Production is 10 units of output. Trump cuts the taxes of the top 1% by 10%. How many new jobs are created?
As for France it proves that Endus is right not wrong (not surprising that you are don't know this given your total lack of understanding of economics). France is being forced to put in place demand shrinking policies by Germany. That shrinkage of demand has caused unemployment to rise.
Once you hit a certain income level your job becomes monitoring your money and making sure the government gets as little as possible. To that end the rich have always bought politicians to make legal tax loopholes for them, which anyone else can't afford to do.
Since he is being audited repeatedly I would suggest that since he isn't in jail for tax evasion that what he does isn't illegal if the IRS doesn't catch him doing anything illegal. It is in the IRS to catch him. Let's not assume illegality merely because Trump is unfit to be president.
Wtf is up with the Trump and Hannity circle jerk tonight? Hannity is mentioned several dozen times during the debates, and then he gets his own special interview session?
Yes. It was an off the cuff remark and he really needs to work on reining those in.
Well I mean, Trump is pretty racist, that was probably the best he could legitimately come up with...
I think he did OK in general. I could see how he could have won the debates with a few more TPP-like jabs, if Clinton was having an off night. He also made some good points about how her experience matters little if people are generally dissatisfied with what her experience has brought about (not that I necessarily agree with this, but I know some voters feel this way). He should have phrased it differently as "not the right kind" of experience was worded rather poorly; she has quite a lot of political experience. Perhaps he was indirectly trying to refer to her lack of business experience, but being a politician is not like running a business.
He also sounded legitimately sincere at one point during the debate and I think he actually did mean it when he said he was trying to distance himself from his past. Although I view his sincerity as essentially being on par with spotting a unicorn in the woods.

Nothing lasts forever, as they say.
But at least I can casually play Classic and remember when MMORPGs were good.
Hell, just make it real simple.
Sally is selling brownies at a school fair. She knows she can sell about 50 brownies per fair. She's made more than that, in the past, but never sold any more than 50.
Sally's parents give her an extra $30,000 to spend on materials to make thousands of brownies. Does this mean she'll be able to sell thousands? No, she'll sell 50. She MIGHT sell more, if she drops her prices accordingly, but now she's making way less per brownie, to boot, and potentially losing money on the transaction. And she's still going to hit a cap at some point.
Well the ideal is that the rich guy buys a boat and a jacuzzi and the boat maker and pool guy make more money and they buy food so the grocery makes more money ect.
The problem is that the top % of income don't spend their money here anymore, they just take the extra and spend it in the Caribbean or hide it in offshore accounts.
The middle class however is firmly entrenched in living in the states and purchasing in the states which is why bolstering the middle class is so important. The problem is that middle class jobs are dying and all that is left is road crews and restaurant work for anyone without higher education.
