What do you do when you have more money

2018-07-29 17:59:48 UTC  

You spend it at some point,

2018-07-29 17:59:49 UTC  

No?

2018-07-29 17:59:49 UTC  

***socialism intensifies***

2018-07-29 18:00:05 UTC  

More money in people's pockets means a better economy

2018-07-29 18:00:09 UTC  

So low tax

2018-07-29 18:00:15 UTC  

not always

2018-07-29 18:00:22 UTC  

Yes always

2018-07-29 18:00:32 UTC  

Maybe 1% of situations not always

2018-07-29 18:00:32 UTC  

have you guys taken college level economics?

2018-07-29 18:00:35 UTC  

Yes

2018-07-29 18:00:42 UTC  

I can't think of many times in history where the populace was prosperous and the economy wasn't also

2018-07-29 18:00:58 UTC  

@PanickedPaladin There isn't a single one

2018-07-29 18:01:03 UTC  

there are situations where leaving the economy to its own devices doesn't work.

2018-07-29 18:01:12 UTC  

Sure

2018-07-29 18:01:17 UTC  

There needs to be a little regulation

2018-07-29 18:01:24 UTC  

Classical economics failed

2018-07-29 18:01:26 UTC  

Higher taxes is one of the major contributing factors to the end of any civilization

2018-07-29 18:01:31 UTC  

Yes

2018-07-29 18:01:46 UTC  

And most of the taxes recieved anyway are wasted

2018-07-29 18:01:54 UTC  

Low tax for all groups has proven to do extremely well. Just look at Trump's tax plan and our booming economy right now

2018-07-29 18:01:59 UTC  

What's the point of working if you get money for doing absolutely nothing

2018-07-29 18:02:11 UTC  

People don't want to pay Mr. Rome taxes when Mr. Rome spends all their money on gladiator battles and sex slaves

2018-07-29 18:02:30 UTC  

The top tenth of a percent can afford to pay a little bit in taxes instead of buying another summer house.

2018-07-29 18:02:33 UTC  

The US spent like 7 million on vietnamese prostitutes once O.o

2018-07-29 18:02:57 UTC  

Also a lot of that tax money used to go into Global Warming funding, luckily not anymore

2018-07-29 18:02:58 UTC  

If I had 7 million dollars I could have probably ended the Vietnam War

2018-07-29 18:03:05 UTC  

@LOTR_1 When you have more money, you can open more businesses, and make more jobs, and get more money, and the cycle repeats

2018-07-29 18:03:20 UTC  

You can't be so naive

2018-07-29 18:03:27 UTC  

Dude

2018-07-29 18:03:35 UTC  

How are we wrong?

2018-07-29 18:03:43 UTC  

History says we are right

2018-07-29 18:03:48 UTC  

You are not wrong theoretically.

2018-07-29 18:03:52 UTC  

and our current administration

2018-07-29 18:03:53 UTC  

There is a reason France sucks rn

2018-07-29 18:04:00 UTC  

The highass taxes

2018-07-29 18:04:10 UTC  

Their economy is in ruins

2018-07-29 18:04:10 UTC  

France is extreme

2018-07-29 18:04:16 UTC  

Only thing keeping them alive is tourism

2018-07-29 18:04:24 UTC

2018-07-29 18:04:31 UTC
