Thanks for the good citation.


Another interpretation of the stats would be to say that McCain is going to reduce taxes to everyone while Obama will increase taxes overall and redistibute most of the increase to the least wealthy of us.


Agreed?

Jesus explained that "...the things I have done and greater ones you will do..." In other words, Jesus tells us that He provides the means for us to help the sick.

So basically what your saying in short is that this is all conjecture and assumtions on your part?

I guess it hasn't been a problem that the last thirty years have seen a massive redistribution from the poorer to the wealthier.

In my lifetime I've seen the loss of the small town hardware store, lumber store, drugstore, grocery store, shoe store, theater, etc. Money isn't trickling down; it's being vacuumed up. My last town had three locally owned lumber stores when Home Depot moved in. They're hanging on by the skin of their teeth now. They buy local forest products, they deliver to your house, and one of them even has a carpenter who can build handsome custom porch steps for a reasonable price. But they can't compete with the new Home Depot's rock bottom prices on imported mystery plywood. That's because everyone in the "food" chain for the locally owned business is paid what is considered a "living wage" for this country. I think it's time to put the "trickle down" fiction to rest once and for all!

I wrote about this in another post, but in an equitable system, people don't need to have jobs "supplied" to them. Most big businesses are actively engaged in transferring their manufacturing and support jobs overseas. The business climate goes ever more hostile to home grown "small businesses", which must compete with goods and services provided by people who are not paid a "living wage" by U.S. standards.
