job creation to me is when the ruling class decided to charge the peasants for the firewood they clear from their rulers land, which once was free.

Are you agreeing that a coercive tax on property that houses people is wrong in the present day?

No comment.

I notice you didn't answer when I asked if you agreed that some manner of a lord coercively taxing people on their homes was wrong.
It appeared in the post of yours that I had quoted you did with me.

If you don't agree, how much can a persons home be taxed against their will to fund things they don't use or want before you'd say they were being robbed?

Please explain which kinds of jobs government "creates" and how they impact other people, if you are able to, Mr. Economist.

Oh I think that the phrase is stupid altogether. Instead of creating jobs, people should just get the work done and then relax.

No, I didn't want to continue to derail my own thread.

So how about it? Do you think at a point in time taking a persons property by government becomes theft? Is there no limit on the amount you would object to?

Okay. So we agree that government can't really create jobs in a productive and free choice kind of way and that their claims to do so are false?

why?

everyone knows now trickle down doesn't happen.

the ruling class will do anything to keep their money > broken tax code (wealthy not paying a proportionate share of their income as compared to everyone else) > 1% are top heavy..

the top .1% (yes, that's a point) wealth is equivalent to the bottom 90%:

You may have missed my point. He alluded that I hold a position that CRONYISM is a good thing. I don't hold that position. He likes to assign me my beliefs and is afraid to defend his.

He also has a habit of not engaging in any real discussion when asked questions he can't answer.


So rather than flush the turd, you'd rather polish the turd just right so everybody can enjoy the smell of coercive distribution and redistribution headed up by a wise and benevolent nanny state? Is that right?
