General Discussion

When the economy is bad, they say we need tax cuts for rich people to stimulate the economy*.
When the economy is good, they say we need tax cuts for rich people because the big bad guvmint is spending too much.
So really, their whole shtick is about cutting taxes for rich people just to make the rich people richer, and commensurately make the working class poorer. And when we call for the rich people to pay more taxes, they scream "class warfare" at the top of their dirty lungs. The reality is that THEY are the ones committing class warfare every time they get a cut.

(*what we find out is that rich people don't spend their tax cuts; they invest in corporate stock buybacks to further enrich themselves and their other rich friends, so the economy doesn't get stimulated by spending.)
