Mr. Zhang, if I am a clanging bell, what is Dick Cheney who credits recent
welfare reform for our prosperity? His comments directly following the
debate last night.

back to your post:
doesn't take a nobel laureate to recognize that reducing any tax should help
economic growth. now address how wealth, not earnings, will be distibuted
over decades, with ever-increasing tax-exempt clumpings at the very top.
just backtrack thru the last 50 years. (you are glib with the macro theories
for sure, especially international.)

btw, fascism is not marxism. i don't feel inclined at the end of a long work
day to have to explain to you in analdetail (aspersions cast your way) their
differences.
