Yeah, they have lots of evidence to suggest that you live longest when on the verge of continuous hunger . They have also found that when you live the fucking high life like us Americans you are predisposed to lead a more sedentary, calorie laden life. Candles that burn twice as bright burn for half as long.

Deciphering...

"We have better quality of life therefore who cares if they have longer life expectancy."

let's make a comparison that will shine a bright light on that quality of life. Let's look at how hot the women are of each country and see who has better quality...


Yeah sorry, I'll take a Cuban chick over an American any day.

Some very average looking Cuban women...




and a couple of American women far above average looking.




I'll take the average looking Cuban chicks

These people look absolutely ecstatic to me. Take a salsa lesson, you'll have a blast.

so rather than argue with ME, with the points I raise you are simply locating some prepared "rebuttal" and plugging that in, instead. Efficient but it might keep you from any sort of reality. You continue to mention Keys when as I said, I have posted nothing about government "interference" or "manipulation" so kindly explain to me how that theory enters the picture. As I said, between the "greedy" part and this, it seems to me that you aren't addressing my points at all, worse, you are disagreeing with things I haven't said.

I love the "there are so many holes...." part, where it is so easy to refute my statements that you won't bother right? Now Of course no product can be manufactured without risk or investment but that risk and investment is highly variable. Now what has that to do with creation of demand? Before the Iphone there was a demand for hand held computers and cellular phones, there was a demand for information and communication.

Be that as it may, my point, the salient point is that the rich do not create jobs nor do they create wealth and furthermore, lower taxes upon the rich will not expand our economy. The reasons have already been given.

I am busy with my work right now, but your debate deserves to be argued, I will get back to it this afternoon.

Is there plenty of demand for a pill that makes you live 50 years longer?

Of course, there is a billion dollars a year demand - on pills that are reputed, possibly to have you live longer and be more healthy, vitiamins, herbs, excercise machines, potions of all sorts have been in demand since the beginning of demand itself.

I will restate my point however.

Only workers create wealth
Only workers create demand
Only demand creates jobs

therefore, reducing taxes on the wealthy serves to...... reduce taxes on the wealthy.

Do the workers put up the capital to build the factories, to pay the wages before profits start coming in, buy the machinery and raw materials needed, contribute half of the SS for each employee, submit the taxes for each employee (all the extra bookkeeping) and offer benefits like health insurance?

The tax cuts were going on throughout the recession, where are all these factories, machinery, benefits, extra bookkeeping, and all this other crap you mention? The fact is, they need a market that is buying or they won't do shit. Aggregate demand commands the private sector.
