    That is bound to have been a factor. Clinton chose not to veto, to his credit. cn

    it's not retribution, it's about not letting history repeat itself. it's about preserving this nation. it's about balancing the power. it;s about preventing oligarchy.

    moar focks nuze pls.

    As you can see, you cried the first tear of class warfare. I'm fine where I'm at, taxing the wealthy will not put any money in my pocket, only take it out.
    BTW, you need to look up the word redistribute, you correctly used the word in your first quote, then contradicted yourself in the next! LOL Rookie!

    I see you are still convinced redistribution = retribution.

    Increase aggregate demand and the market will have been revived. Simple as that. If there is a demand for goods and services, someone, somewhere will rise to meet that demand.
