So you think you know more about taxes and tax policy than I do? That's the funniest thing I've read here in years!



You probably think you deserve a Nobel in Economics for your facile "explanations" of supply side theory in this forum lol! Remember how tax revenues almost doubled after Ronnie Reagan licked your Laffer Curve sweet spot?

Tell me again, WTF - where did you study economics? Did you earn a BA, BS, masters degree or Phd in the field?

Let me know and I'll go see if I can get CaptainMidnight to join in your high-level discussion.

Ask him about the sugar high from these tax cuts and how much longer he thinks we will run 4.2 GDP quarters.

I just read that 2.7 of the 4.2 could be attributed to stimulus spending (that includes tax cuts). yhat will not be forth coming nxt year.

The last stimulus legislation we had in this country was the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA). Trump signed a tax reform bill, not a spending stimulus.

This "sugar high" already looks like it will be a lot more effective and longer-lasting than ARRA.

Now what was your degree in economics again?

You wanna bet me that GDP does not continue above 4.0 for the next 4 quarters?

A kool-aid drinker worth of Economics degree is still just a Kool-Aid drinker

The original bet was 3% annualized. I’m sure Lusty can find it.

Yes Einstein that is the wager.

lusty is talking shit now, I'm ready to bet him for the next 4 quarters.

If I lose to you and am gone for a year and then he takes this bet and I lose, I'll be gone for another year. But he will not wager...he knows this was a sugar high.

Who is the real loser in such a bet?

Of course. It's in their Democratic Party blood and bone marrow.




And they are dismissive of their own as well.

Please sit down, you are the last one that should be commenting on any bets.

Your speciality is to comment AFTER a bet is completed.


You're a 20/20 bettor. You never bet or make a prediction, you comment after the fact.

So you admit you don't have any formal education in the subject!

It wouldn't even matter to me - except for the way you talk down to everyone like you have a superior understanding of economics. Where the fuck does that come from if you never even took a course in it?

Then you swagger like a know-it-all and say things like "they will never understand wealth..."

Well, guess what - many folks who never studied a lick of economics understand the simple concept that when the government gets the fuck out of the way, more wealth is created!

They get it, and you don't.
