Background: 
1. The Tom Coburn Deceptions - Pretending "The Budget Problem" Hasn't Already Been Disproven By Economists
2. The GOP have been destroying the economy & opposing their own bills JUST to oppose Obama!

The Obama economic recovery - More than 3 million workers in this country are starting the year off with a raise. And people will have more money in their wallets as gas prices continue to fall. Rev. Sharpton talks Jared Bernstein and Maria Teresa Kumar about economic growth.

Notes: 

An increase in minimum wage will boost the economy in relation to whatever multiplier effect we have.  

For Ron Paul Libertarians: Yes, Ron Paul claims that the only way to deal with the minimum wage is to remove their limits and let it fall to wherever it falls (he's mistaking this for a "free market" probably because of Fox Business propaganda - Economics section is being built right now for this website). At the some time we know that a privately run company call the Federal Reserve has been working for years, under a government mandate, to inflate the currency to boost the economy. To allow the currency & cost of living to inflate while allowing wages and work standards to fall as the traitor Republicans gut regulations, is to try to return us to a time of awful job conditions (keep in mind, slavery worked cause of it's lack of regulations in setting a standard of human decency through regulations, gutting our advancements in implementing our Bill Of Rights will send us back to the awful age we came from)...

At approx 5 minutes we are faced with the mathematically impossible theory pushed by the Traitor Inc.  (Republicans) that Austerity (a reduction of the money supply into the economy) has led to the economic recovery/boost! (i.e. more money in the economy!)

 Not only has the logic for the austerity been proven incorrect & inappropriate... the Traitor Republicans have THEMSELVES stated many times before that their policies don't work to help everybody ... and is actually bad for local economies (even Bush admitted to that fact)... and yet we have the Republicans pushing policies that helped destroy the economy in the first place AND they are doubling down on it. 

I get that they are the anti-science party... but this is the 21st Century. How long will we allow PROVEN LIARS push thier agenda of lies about the economy & economic growth that have been proven wrong many times over even if it wasn't for the craziness (lack of mathematically validity) to their arguments. It's crazy to listen to the Republicans on the economy at this point and anyone helping them push their crazy economic "policies".

Note: I find it amusing that people actually think that Norquist could be honest with the American people. Democrats don't get treason & Norquist is a traitor trying to destroy the economy (I wouldn't be sure of it if it wasn't for his involvement in the NRA). No one is that stupid in so many areas unless it is intentional.

At approx 6 minutes: Europe pushed austerity with it's Rupert Murdoch & other right wing politicians believing in their  disproven theories as the way to boost their economies and they are suffering (as would be expected). Yes, Republican Traitors or anti-science morons like to push the 1930's idea that any money spent is like paying people to dig holes & fill them up... but that's just stupid. Do you see ANY investment program operating that way? Except for the Solyndra scam pushed by Bush & honored by Obama (for obvious political reasons), was meant to be to help the economy & not as just a money expenditure activity. These old men spouting their 1930's theories in the face of evidence or logic needs to stop.

For years the Republicans have been saying Obama has been destroying the economy, turns out they were wrong (obviously, as they were lying as per thier party policy of treason), so now they are claiming it was their policies that boosted the economy... like the crazy "we built it" charade. The GOP are a very real & present danger to the United States, her economy and her citizens. There is no other way to explain it.

Or do you think people just hate the immigrants doing the jobs they don't like so much that they will automatically react with violence?)

Finally, Proven Beyond A Shadow OF A Doubt, ... Democrats Are Cowards
Solyndra: The Perfect Example Of Democrats Displaying Thier Cowardice For The World To See & Marvel At

Obama is like Jagged Fel, Head Of State Of The Empire, in the book Apocalypse. Who is carefully trying to manipulate sides to get the population to do the right thing. But the people have been without a true Democratic process for so long that they don't know how to participate in the Democratic process. (I'm, like a good version of Abeloth)

Note: Obama was very clear that he would work with everyone when he got to power. A large segment of "we the people" is now "we the corporations & lobbyists", so, technically, Obama did what he said he would do

Obama/Jagged Fel's Philosophy In A Nutshell:

"In a real Democracy it's not the result that's important it's the process."

I would reply "people only follow a leader if they choose the leader themselves".

By the 2010 midterms the GOP had already proven it was using lying as a strategy. Which they have been using continuously. Obama & the Democrats could have motivated their base to start proper investigations through all the financial and other records of the GOP and we would have flushed the traitors nest clean.

Anyways, Obama could have got the GOP then and he didn't. He could get them now as our investigation ability still exists on local levels and the entrenched State Bureaucracies must be rife with corruption by now as is the real nature of people with power (not the fictional one the Koch Brothers sell us on through Fox News/Business. All the while relying on the fact that Fox News won the right to lie and call itself "News" using a "conservative" led court.)

So what we have now is a bunch of lobbyists for Corporations who pretty much dictate public policy on many levels... especially when in concerns themselves:

Summary of some of the taxpayer financed corporate tax breaks (it's basically corporate welfare or welfare for the rich)

[Senator Bernie Sanders] BURLINGTON, Vt., March 27 - While hard working Americans fill out their income tax returns this tax season, General Electric and other giant profitable corporations are avoiding U.S. taxes altogether.

With Congress returning to Capitol Hill on Monday to debate steep spending cuts, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) said the wealthiest Americans and most profitable corporations must do their share to help bring down our record-breaking deficit.

Sanders renewed his call for shared sacrifice after it was reported that General Electric and other major corporations paid no U.S. taxes after posting huge profits. Sanders said it is grossly unfair for congressional Republicans to propose major cuts to Head Start, Pell Grants, the Social Security Administration, nutrition grants for pregnant low-income women and the Environmental Protection Agency while ignoring the reality that some of the most profitable corporations pay nothing or almost nothing in federal income taxes.

Sanders compiled a list of some of the 10 worst corporate income tax avoiders.

1)      Exxon Mobil made $19 billion in profits in 2009.  Exxon not only paid no federal income taxes, it actually received a $156 million rebate from the IRS, according to its SEC filings.  (Source: Exxon Mobil's 2009 shareholder report filed with the SEC here.)

2)      Bank of America received a $1.9 billion tax refund from the IRS last year, although it made $4.4 billion in profits and received a bailout from the Federal Reserve and the Treasury Department of nearly $1 trillion. (Source: Forbes.com here, ProPublica here and Treasuryhere.)

3)      Over the past five years, while General Electric made $26 billion in profits in the United States, it received a $4.1 billion refund from the IRS. (Source: Citizens for Tax Justice hereand The New York Times here.  Note: despite rumors to the contrary, the Times has stood by its story.)

4)      Chevron received a $19 million refund from the IRS last year after it made $10 billion in profits in 2009.  (Source: See 2009 Chevron annual report here.  Note 15 on page FS-46 of this report shows a U.S. federal income tax liability of $128 million, but that it was able to defer $147 million for a U.S. federal income tax liability of $-19 million)

5)      Boeing, which received a $30 billion contract from the Pentagon to build 179 airborne tankers, got a $124 million refund from the IRS last year. .  (Source: Paul Buchheit, professor, DePaul University, here and Citizens for Tax Justice here.)

6)      Valero Energy, the 25th largest company in America with $68 billion in sales last year received a $157 million tax refund check from the IRS and, over the past three years, it received a $134 million tax break from the oil and gas manufacturing tax deduction. (Source: the company's 2009 annual report, pg. 112, here.)

7)      Goldman Sachs in 2008 only paid 1.1 percent of its income in taxes even though it earned a profit of $2.3 billion and received an almost $800 billion from the Federal Reserve and U.S. Treasury Department.  (Source: Bloomberg News here, ProPublica here, Treasury Department here.)

8)      Citigroup last year made more than $4 billion in profits but paid no federal income taxes. It received a $2.5 trillion bailout from the Federal Reserve and U.S. Treasury. (Source: Paul Buchheit, professor, DePaul University, here, ProPublica here, Treasury Department here.)

9)      ConocoPhillips, the fifth largest oil company in the United States, made $16 billion in profits from 2006 through 2009, but received $451 million in tax breaks through the oil and gas manufacturing deduction.  (Sources: Profits can be found here.  The deduction can be found on the company's 2010 SEC 10-K report to shareholders on 2009 finances, pg. 127,here)

10)  Over the past five years, Carnival Cruise Lines made more than $11 billion in profits, but its federal income tax rate during those years was just 1.1 percent.  (Source: The New York Times here)

Sanders has called for closing corporate tax loopholes and eliminating tax breaks for oil and gas companies. He also introduced legislation to impose a 5.4 percent surtax on millionaires that would yield up to $50 billion a year. The senator has said that spending cuts must be paired with new revenue so the federal budget is not balanced solely on the backs of working families.

"We have a deficit problem. It has to be addressed," Sanders said, "but it cannot be addressed on the backs of the sick, the elderly, the poor, young people, the most vulnerable in this country.  The wealthiest people and the largest corporations in this country have got to contribute. We've got to talk about shared sacrifice."

March 9, 2012 - Moyers & Company explores the tight connection between Wall Street and the White House with David Stockman, former budget director for President Reagan.

Now a businessman who says he was “taken to the woodshed” for telling the truth about the administration’s tax policies, Stockman speaks candidly with Bill Moyers about how money dominates politics, distorting free markets and endangering democracy. “As a result,” Stockman says, “we have neither capitalism nor democracy. We have crony capitalism.”

Stockman shares details on how the courtship of politics and high finance have turned our economy into a private club that rewards the super-rich and corporations, leaving average Americans wondering how it could happen and who’s really in charge.

“We now have an entitled class of Wall Street financiers and of corporate CEOs who believe the government is there to do… whatever it takes in order to keep the game going and their stock price moving upward,” Stockman tells Moyers.
