No, no, no, you implied that "progressive taxation" AIDED economic growth. It in fact does NOT...JFK lowered taxes on the wealthy saying "A rising tide floats all boats" was that evil of him? LBJ started many socialist programs that we all know you love like "The War on Poverty"...and to date there are more people in poverty than before...but the hits don't stop there with the progressive communist liberal democrats you love to ass kiss so much, how's about God King Barack Obama's namesake "Obamacare" which the CBO just said de-incentivized people to work and although it was created to get 30 million people without health insurance covered with health insurance in 10 years 30 million people would still not be covered by the panacea that is Obamacare
Oh you capitalized "YOUR" ....don't you know that's.....racist?
Hey everyone, Kirkland is racist, he's capitalizing shit!!!! Or does that only look good to you when you post it pussy?
Alright Cunty McCunterson, how's about you explain how Obamacare deincentivizing people going to work is going to "fix" this wealth gap issue you seem to be so fucking worried about?
Teen unemployment 21%, black teen unemployment 38%....that's got to be great for "income disparity" eh comrade?
It's good to see you so concerned about those black teens Lyle. Obama hasn't done nearly as much as he could do for unemployed people but that's partly due to the fact that everything he's tried has been blocked by the GOP. The GOP are currently blocking the continued payment of unemployment benefits to all the people their policies were making unemployed at the rate of nearly a million people a month when Obama took office.

They would fail to qualify for SUBSIDIES not "Obamacare"....how that would decrease an INCOME or WEALTH gap is beyond me. I am happy that you believe people will leave their jobs flipping burgers at minimum wage and magically make millions of dollars, but it's not going to happen that way....in fact some citizens STILL won't be covered by any kind of healthcare, but heck it's only the CBO that says that.
Yes blocked by the GOP. Why who knew the GOP could be so fucking powerful when they only held 1 house of Congress. You are fucking pathetic, "He could have done more without the GOP" oh I'm sorry I thought President Obama was going to be Mr. "Bring Both Parties together" I thought he was going to HAPPILY reach across the isle and get deals done........but when President Obama HIMSELF (ooooh capitalized words, hear that dog whistle yet?) says he "Will NOT compromise" and he "will NOT negotiate" well I guess he's showing what a true leader is right? W worked with the democrats a lot more than Barry has worked with the GOP but that's probably because racism you know....not because he's just trying to get his way all the time and being petulant about it. No wonder YOU like him.
And I worry about unemployment especially among at risk teens because if there are more teens who are unemployed then the likelihood they fall into ooooh I don't know some kind of gang activity increases and crime is a burden on society not something that drives an economy.
Yeah Obama is really growing the economy at a frightening pace isn't he?Does that water you tote for Barry ever get heavy?
Lots more people will have health care. The difference between being covered when you have a medical emergency and losing what little you have obviously is the singlemost thing that can be done to narrow the wealth gap. There'll still be about 50 million Americans, mostly working poor, with zero health coverage but Obamacare is better than nothing.
People are disincentivised to work because once they go over a certain amount of earnings they fail to qualify for Obamacare. So they'll stay under a certain earnings threshold by cutting some hours, and most of these people we're talking about second or third low-paid jobs. So Obamacare will create vacancies for lots of low-paying part-time jobs. Unfortunately in modern-day America employers will have no problem finding replacements and for the replacements at least their new second or third jobs will help brisge their individual wealth inequality gap.
