The *only* thing that helps the working class is a* strong economy*. It
gives the average worker more freedom and more bargaining power. When the
financial sector was booming from 1987 through 1989, workers were getting
bonuses, overtime and stock options. When the financial sector suffered a
downturn in 1990, it trickled down. There were no more bonuses, overtime,
stock options and their were layoffs.
The economy would be much stronger, possibly even recover by NOT taxing
corporations.
Exactly the oppasite of what socialists want.
We should have a fund (not government funded) for socialists willing to
take a course in economy.
Remember, in Stanley's words: No taxes on Corporations and they will buy
huge yachts.
Of course, that provides jobs and money for the yacht builders, and who
builds yachts? The workers of course.
Stan, are you against yacht yard workers having jobs? Our hero Sam Gompers
wanted a "Single Tax" - one tax, that's it, maybe tax on land owned, or as
some propose now a "Consumption Tax".
I'd support that. Corporate Income taxes hurt most of all the consumers
and the workers.
