    All the sudden the left is concerned about spending. How funny is that?

    I happy to see you lefties finally get on the debt bandwagon.   You're about 17 years to late. 

  • 1) The federal budget has been a mess for sometime now.   This is not a Trump thing.   I blame the dems for buidling a government that we can't afford.    Spending is at 23% of the GDP.   Which is uns

You are flat out wrong.

Someone claimed tariffs would just be passed in to customers, to which I responded:


Me: “Just like corporate income taxes are taxes passed on to the customers, but you're all for those, yes? 
Corporate income taxes both punish the consumer, but: 
Corporate income taxes punish domestic manufacturers. 
Tariffs punish foreign manufacturers.”


To which you responded: 
You: “I was an importer into the USA for a while. If there were taxes [duty] on any imported items, I had to pay it. My suppliers did not. Plain and simple.”

 

To which I responded: 
Me: “Your customers had to pay it, and it makes the import less desirable, effectively punishing the foreign manufacturer. You operated a business and honestly did not know what I meant? 
In any event, if you had been buying from domestic manufacturers, you'd have had to pay their corporate income taxes, and you'd have passed that on to your customers as well, yes?”


To which you responded: 
You: “my customers did not have to pay it because I did not raise prices...  what I was purchasing was not made in the USA...  if it were, I would not have had any margin for profit...”


To which I responded: 
Me: “Well that's great. You just proved that tariffs do not cause inflation, but they do generate additional tax revenue. Win-win!”

It proves nothing - most companies will pass on the price increase - I chose not to... please don't be so foolish as to think that my small company has any affect or is in any way an indicator of the whole economy. 

 

You are in over your skis if you think your limited knowledge applies to everyone... 

 

And actually, since my profits were smaller due to eating the costs, you could say that I paid less in taxes. And, I eventually stopped carrying that item. 

 

 

So, you used your business "as an indicator of the whole economy" to somehow prove I was wrong, but you call foul when I use your claim, and you just ended up proving I was right. Oh, what a tangled web and whatnot. 

 

Tariffs, wages and corporate income taxed are generally all passed on to the consumer.

I have owned two, worked for probably twenty. The job I retired from was as the Operations Director over Southeast Asia, India and the Middle East for a small division of a Fortune 200 company.

That virtually all leftists can do is lie and or dodge questions. 

Only so called "leftists"?

What about everyone else, are they all totally truthful?

PS;  What criteria do you use to define a so called "leftist" by just their posts?

People that lie and or dodge questions is the best indicator. But seething hate for Trump and MAGA, talking about "the science", going on about how stupid the people they disagree with are, how open minded they are, attacking people that ask questions they can't answer, assuming facts not in evidence are all great indicators as well.

Common response from lying leftists when confronted about their lying:  "...we ALL know...".

 

This can be translated to: We all watch the same leftist liars on MSNBC, and we all regurgitate the same lies.

None of this was in your video with the chancellor of Germany.  I thought you were claiming that video was full of lies.

 

24hours?  An exaggeration.  True, but not a lie as negotiations are not over.

 

Dogs and cats?  You have proof the Haitians don’t eat them?


dead losers?  You have the sound bites or just hearsay?

 

Come back when you have the proof.  I’m in for a long wait.

 

Another liberal liar coming up.  Listen closely!
