Tax cuts create jobs.

I was discussing that with Mrs. FBW last night. Well, ranting, really.

I said, Trump is talking like he is getting his $5.5 Trillion tax cut - you know, the one that gives everthing to everyone? - which might just increase economic activity by enough to make up the $1.5 Trillion the actual bill will cost. But it wouldn’t cover the $5.5 Trillion, and the $1.5 Trillion cut won’t increase activity enough to cover itself, because it mostly goes to people who already have plenty of money and will just throw the new money on the pile.

I said, “You know who would spend the money? Poor people!”
