As much as I hate this weirdo he’s right, when you tax rich people they stop spending their money or start spending it in other countries.
Except that's very inaccurate. In our society as of today, "rich people", as a class, tend to act as money sinks, not recirculators. That is one of the things the left actually gets right (broken clock): rich people suck up money and then pay it back in under-inflationary amounts, so they are a net drain on the economy. That is why they are rich: more money flows IN, less money flows OUT from their pockets.
They also already take their money overseas to begin with, and it's not because of tax rates. It's because they are participating in a deliberate destabilization of American economy and society. The whining about tax rates they do is just smoke for the (((subversion))).
If you want to rebuild American economy, the key is not to incentivize the giant corporations, it is to incentivize the AVERAGE JOES to start LOCAL businesses. Walmart needs to die in favor of local grocers. Amazon needs to die in favor of local bookstores and electronics stores. This means one of the first steps is deregulating the hell out of small businesses, startups. Make it easy to start a business and hire people. No forms or any bull, just I give you money, you work for me.
It is the middle class who really are the recirculators, not the rich. The middle class just needs to be shifted from being one of professional wageslaves to a class of independents turning their own profit. We really need to forget about the quest to become obscenely rich, and just be happy with sustaining a healthy economy and social ecosystem that can be preserved generationally.
The billionaires have no interest in doing this. If they were even 1% as patriotic as conservatives love to claim they are, they would be doubling, tripling the wages they offer at their corporations out of sheer love for their fellow countrymen and the country as a whole (not forced by laws). But they're not, though, they're acting more like vampires sucking their victim dry.
This is why I consider myself a nationalist. Nationalism is the love of one's country and fellow countrymen, and a desire to advance the interests of that country and its citizenry in a generational way. I want America to be a place where I, my kids, their grandchildren, and so on forth, can have a good life under the watchful eye of our Lord. I do not want America to be... boomerified, where every man thinks only of his own profit and hates his neighbor. This is wicked in the sight of the Lord, and invites judgement. We are a country of wicked people. We must repent and turn back to the Lord,
and to our neighbors. The two most important commandments are these: love the Lord with all your heart, all your mind, all your soul, and all your strength, and love your neighbor as yourself.
The first commandment there is easy to remember: even progressive Churchians claim to practice this. It is the second that so few Americans grasp: loving your neighbor. But instead, we "keep up with the Joneses" out of envy.
