I couldn't think of a quality topic name for this, but I'll go into detail what I mean.
Our economy is supposedly going down the tank. As of now, President-elect Obama is promising to cut 95% of Americans taxes, while raising taxes for those who make 250,000 dollars and more.
We've also had the tax cuts of Ronald Reagon. Give tax cuts to the rich, thinking that the extra money that they gain from these tax cuts will be used to create more jobs. This is also known as Trickle Down Economics, or Reagonomics.
Another proposed tax plan is the FairTax. The FairTax, is the idea of abolishing the income tax, but then increasing sales tax drastically.
There are other ideas for taxes, but these are the main plans that I can think. In this economy, and in economy in general, what plan do you think is best?
Personally, I'm for Trickle Down Economics. After the Carter Administration, inflation was horrible. We used the system, and the economy improved. Of course, we did spend A LOT on a National Defense System.
I really don't like Obama's plan. Too many small businesses are right on that borderline of 250,000. And we already have a problem with companies outsourcing to different countries, how will increasing their tax keep them here?
