Brandstead to raise taxes

Posted in: Muscatine

Math?  We don't  need no stinkin' math!  Not to discuss proven principles and what works and doesn't work in society.   You don't set the rules here Malodery.


No, it clear you think you do....

You are not presenting "proven principles" here.   You're repeating things you've heard too many times from the right wing sources you seem to always listen to.    You've heard them so often you've convinced yourself  they're true.   You or they offer any hard proof. 

There is anecdotal evidence that lower taxes, in a case or two, was followed by increased tax revenue but no proof of cause and effect.

I gave you proof that it doesn't work just now using income tax as an example.    I provided good old BS similar proof using sales tax as an example sometime back.

Nobody has challenged my math either time.    And, yes, it does require math to prove a number increased or decreased.

Want to guess why no one has challenged your math? Because you have no idea what you are saying - let me cite an example. You said that tp's post on the path to prosperity was referring to Jon Daly, when in fact the show that tp was referring to was the Daily Show with Jon Stewart and you claimed that you went back to the link and you said that it plainly said in the corner John Daly. I repeat - you have no idea what you are saying. Your idea of proof is bogus.

Yep, I don't know what "proof" Malodery thinks she/he/it has provided!  It's absolutely ridiculous.  It's truly like trying to talk with an imbecile.  I have not yet found a liberal with any particle of common sense.   It's like deja vu all over again!  I'm beginning to suspect TP,Mal, et al are posting from some computer in some madhouse.
