25. From "the tax code should encourage investment" to "Taxes should be for raising revenue" in 2 posts

Wow, you can change your entire ideology on a dime. it all depends on the reply you get, it seems. It's amazing that, when you say:

"Where do you think the capital to create jobs comes from? It comes from investments. Without investment, there would little or no job growth. For that reason, the tax code should encourage investment, not punish it. If you disagree, tell me how you would create new jobs and where you would get the capital."

and then someone actually puts forward a scheme for encouraging investment ,with real numbers, and specifying the difference between productive investment and simple gambling or destruction for gain, you come back by claiming that is "what is wrong with our tax policy - it's set up to accomplish some social objective." You asked for a social objective. You wanted an answer for "how you would create new jobs".

It's as if you think you can walk away from your previous positions, and you think none of us will notice your rank hypocrisy.

Fuck, your posts in this thread are a complete fucking waste of everyone's time.
