False no but with you just dismissing it out of hand and attacking me I dont see how you will ever know the truth.Your first paragraph completely ignores the Great Depression, like taxes had nothing to do with it. False premise to start the screed, I didn't bother with the rest.
Go bloviate at someone stupid enough to believe you.
If you'd like to be taken seriously by those who actually know something about the subject, I invite you to crack some textbooks. But you're too cool for that.
So have a nice day!
For those who did not read the article in it he basically stated that the difference in income between the wealthy and the poor went up in the 20s and down in the 30s. The premise is that taxing the wealthy more would shrink this. And yes it did with the ramifications being severe unemployment. There are other issues that helped but the basic premise was by raising taxes you help the poor by reducing the difference in incomes.
Just another article that glorifies bigger government but ignores the truth of the consequences of that government.
It is to bad that ty wont open his eyes to the destruction it causes to people and just outright dismisses any criticism of his ideas.
