Federal deficit grows by 32% to $900B

[LV426]

Argument from randU fallacy.

You don't know what the fuck you're saying.

You argue that raising the MW kills job, I produce empirical evidence showing job growth accelerates after a MW increase.

You offer nothing as a counter-argument. Just your ignorant insistence.

So here comes the part where a Conservative, who won't divulge any personal details on this board, tries to subjectively judge the worth of someone's employment.

??? I'm not. Price discovery does that.

How about we put you under the microscope and determine your value and worth?

You are not trying to hire me. You do use my products (indirectly) though.

Let's see...I don't see you doing anything but posting non-stop 24/7 on these boards,

Heh. I barely spend 5-10 minutes here.

even after your previous account was probably suspended.

I have no previous account. You are being a bigot again.

So what do you actually do for society? Nothing.

I own a company that manufactures instrumentation for industrial, aerospace, entertainment, and medical uses. I like to fly, build, and fix aircraft as a hobby. I am a certified aircraft mechanic, a certified pilot, I hold an FCC commercial radiotelegraph license with radar endorsement and an amateur radio license. I am a successful businessman.

Now that we've got that out of the way, you can go ahead and deny it. Credentials are useless on forums.

You just posture on a message board. Fact is, you're probably one of those "unskilled, unmotivated, and uneducated" people you are trying to judge here. That's pretty typical projection from an insecure Conservative, and would be par for the course.

Bigotry again.

I would never judge your job based on my subjective opinion, but I sure as shit will judge your character. And you appear to have no moral character. You're just a posturing fraud.

I am not judging you. Price discovery does that.

Price controls don't work. Wage laws are price controls.

Ross Perot was the last presidential candidate that at least gave lip service to the deficit.
Gary Johnson was the only presidential candidate that had a track record of vetoing any spending bill that didn't have a tax increase to pay for it or vetoing a tax cut without a reduction in spending, both the heretic idea of (gasp!) fiscal responsibility.

To this day, none of you have been able to clearly articulate why you care so much about the debt or deficit, nor have you been able to articulate why you exclusively support policies like tax cuts that manufacture or magnify deficits that you want everyone to think you're concerned about.

You're a bunch of frauds.

 

[Into the Night]

STRAW MAN!

I never said that.

So this is you being weak.

Go fuck yourself with your straw men.

Yes you did.

 

[LV426]

??? I'm not. Price discovery does that.

No it doesn't.

Not at all.

Not when it comes to employment.

We're not even close to what an actual minimum wage should be. Instead, we have low wages that are subsidized by taxpayers to preserve corporate profits. Walmart is a terrific example. Last year, they made about $14B in profit. Also last year, their employees qualified for $6.2B in benefits because their wages are low. So if Walmart paid its workers a wage where they didn't qualify for benefits, they would still be profitable.

 

[LV426]

You are not trying to hire me. You do use my products (indirectly) though.

I guess I'll have to take your word for it since you won't verify any claims about yourself here.

You'll make claims about yourself, but won't verify them.

It's obvious why.

Like clockwork, the Conservative responding to this thread must seize upon imaginary victimhood because his shitty argument fell to pieces when I showed not only is there predation in capitalism, but Conservatives actively fostered and defended that predation because they lack moral character.




No, they were protected by Bush and the Conservatives who refused to break up the banks, REMEMBER?!? You were the ones who said we couldn't break up the banks. You didn't give a good reason why. And yes, Obama should have taken a hard line on the banksters. But they wouldn't have been banksters in the first place if you all hadn't defended them throughout Bush the Dumber. Conservatives opposed any banking reform, period.




No they weren't. The Fed was raising interest rates for at least two years before the subprime bubble started.

Is this cawacko using a different MB ID? If so, weak sauce, bruh.

More bigotry. More attempts to change history. More contextomies. *yawn*

Yup. When it comes to employment too.

I have no previous account. You are being a bigot again.

How am I being a bigot by accusing you of creating a new account?

Eventually, you're going to fall back on an old habit and accidentally reveal who you are through your posting style.

I own a company that manufacture

BULLSHIT.

Prove it.

They are most definitely taxpayer-funded because the taxes corporations don't pay, taxpayers end up paying.

Cutting taxes has the same net effect on the budget as increasing spending.

Only, cutting taxes doesn't create jobs. Cutting taxes only creates deficits. It's those deficits you feign concern over in order to extract cuts to spending to which you're ideologically opposed.

I see right through it. You're not clever enough to hide it.

Taxes breaks are not subsidies. They are not taxpayer funded.

Bigotry again.

Explain how it's bigoted for me to say you're posturing on a message board.

 

[LV426]

I am not judging you. Price discovery does that.

Funny...so then explain why Costco pays $18/hr for the same job Walmart pays $11/hr?

According to you, they should both be paid the same.

So your thinking is flawed.

I know I've seen this same shitty argument on these boards before, specifically from one poster.

 

[Into the Night]

The State does because the State issues a charter for your business. You can't just create a business because you feel like it. You're not entitled to owning a business. Not anymore than anyone is entitled to a job.

I created the business because I felt like it. The State has no say in the matter. The business 'license' is just a method they use to tax by. I am entitled to own any business I wish. You are entitled to seek whatever employment you wish. You will have to be qualified for that position. You will undergo price discovery, just like I do.

 

[LV426]

Yes you did.

No I didn't.

We can go back and look at the thread.

You created a straw man to argue against in order to bolster your pathetically weak argument on this thread.

You can't defend along the terms of my argument, so you just invent one.

Well...since you are reduced to contextomies and insults again, back to the ignore list you go. Seeya.

More bigotry. More attempts to change history. More contextomies. *yawn*

I didn't change anything and I'm more than happy to walk you through the timeline of all the bad faith actions Conservatives took from 2001-2007 to bolster an economy that was growing not because of tax cuts, but because of debt...specifically Mortgage Equity Withdrawals. Without those, Bush's economy was truly a dung heap.

 

[LV426]

Yup. When it comes to employment too.

No. Not because you say so.

I notice how most of your arguments are just you insisting things and not supporting any of it.

That's what makes me think you're just winging all this.
