no doubt
I bet the cleaners end up getting worse than minimum wage - get them to do 6 hours work, but tell them they should've managed to do it in 4 hours, so get docked 2 hours wages... at least that's a very typical ploy of cleaning agencies these days
@Tero
Yeah it was reduced by the tax act put in by Kennedy and passed in '64.
reduced down to 77% then 70%
very low rates
Yeah 20% is a decent drop. Do you mean it's not perfect? Ok but it's a large decrease. Better because revenue went up it served as a proof of Laffer that created an argument for future reductions.
I mean "cut taxes and kill commies" works for me. Not gonna lie it gives me a freedom boner.
even though 70% is the kind of tax rate present day americans laugh at scandinavian countries for having to pay
Rather that you got to keep three times as much as the previous rate. It's not like the president can just get anything they want mate. It's a larger tax cut than any other president pulled off since. You seem to be upset that the man was not magic. Well no. We will not get a magic president.
Today I was told that coop's and credit unions are examples of socialism in action. SMH... By that logic publicly traded companies are socialism too
Wait.i think Reagan might have. So like Kennedy and Reagan are the presidents that accomplished large reductions in tax rates.
>By that logic publicly traded companies are socialism too
how does this comparison hold..?
A credit union proportionally pays out dividends. As does a publicly traded corporation.
a co-op might do the same
obviously the speaker doesn't consider dividends as antithetical to socialism
Indeed, all of the above are various forms of capitalism.
no i think the socialist would disagree, in that in the co-op and the credit union, there is no capitalist investing his capital in an enterprise for the extraction of (unearned) profits from the work of its employees
admittedly i'm no socialist, but i think that's probably along the lines of their dispute of the similarity
A Labour Movement person with balls
