Tax Cuts - As Explained By A Democrat?

Question

If you don’t understand the Democrats’ version of tax cuts (and you are not alone), maybe this will help explain it:

50,000 people go to a baseball game, but the game was rained out. A refund was then due

The team was about to mail refunds when the Congressional Democrats stopped them and suggested that they send out refund amounts based on the Democrat National Committee’s interpretation of fairness.

After all, if the refunds were made based on the price each person paid for the tickets, most of the money would go to the ticket holders of the most expensive tickets. That would be unfair and unconscionable.

People in the $10 seats will get back $15, because they have less money to spend. Call it an “Earned Income Ticket Credit.” Persons “earn” it by demonstrating little ambition, few skills and poor work habits, thus keeping them at entry-level wages.

People in the $25 seats will get back $25, because that’s only fair.

People in the $50 seats will get back $1, because they already make a lot of money and don’t need a refund. After all, if they can afford a $50 ticket, then they must not be paying enough taxes.

People in the $75 luxury seats will have to pay another $50, because they have way too much to spend.

The people driving (or walking) by the stadium who couldn’t afford to watch the game will get $10 each, even though they didn’t pay anything in, because they need the most help (sometimes known as Affirmative Action!).

Now do you understand?

If not, contact Representative Nancy Pelosi, Senator Ted Kennedy or Senator Hillary Clinton for assistance.

Answer 1

Now that is Liberaconamics.. I wonder what the scalpers get ?

Answer 2

You're missing out on something. Some people can't afford to pay 25% of their salary to the government. (Everyone would like to pay less, sure.) But if someone who makes 24,000 pays 25%, they'd be left with 18,000 to pay off their rent, food, and the rare occasional baseball game that gets rained out. It's not a glamorous life, bud.

Answer 3

I have no theory what you're speaking approximately. possibly what you're saying is that Democrats say that a tax cut back, and not using a spending cut back, will strengthen the deficit, that could reason 'poverty', i think. definitely you're saying a greater imaginitive device is greater effectual for the undesirable. possibly what you're saying that Democrats say that tax cuts provide political skill to cut back considered necessary government classes, which reason poverty (for those people who get their reward cut back). possibly what you're saying is that top taxes on the wealthier help keep income corporation (which isn't taxed) and out of the palms of economic gamblers. i'm sympathetic to this view. especially, inspite of the undeniable fact that, Democrats are for tax cuts for the time of recessions to stimulate mixture call for, and that they are in choose of the EITC, which lowers the taxes of undesirable people, for that reason lowering poverty.

Answer 4

Almost. They would insist that the people who didn't even buy a ticket would be the ones who get the refund, because they can't even afford to go to the game.
