You only dislike Bulverism because of your anger at anything having to do with freedom.

Next, Bozo will want to impose a no strawmen rule because he wants to ban all argument and dissent like Hitler did. 

 

 

Only if I can mansplain everything to the Bulverists.

 I'm gonna assume you're wrong, and let me explain why... surly gonna surly.

wtf is bulverism

If High Plains Drifter said it, it must be wrong.  

The next worthless shoplifting child molester who protests ad hominem attacks will be mocked.

When I say let's go to a place live Bulivia, let's go to a place like Bulivia.

I like @bolverk and don't know why you want to ban him already. 

I can totally understand why pale goth chicks and stabby witches with A cups aren't everyone's cup of tea, but why the hell you gotta call on my banning, Bozo?

Hell, fuck it.

Fatwa on all the playa clowns! You will rue the day, Bozo. I said it, RUE.THE.DAY.

The Shag Surl was built on a foundation of bulverism. Without it, there is no us, no Shag Surl. Why do you hate us? 

You can have my bulverism when you pry it from my cold, dead hands.

Can we all agree Trickle Down (tax cuts for the rich) is a bullshit theory? 

https://academic.oup.com/ser/article/20/2/539/6500315?login=false

Abstract

The last 50 years has seen a dramatic decline in taxes on the rich across the advanced democracies. There is still fervent debate in both political and academic circles, however, about the economic consequences of this sweeping change in tax policy.
 

This article contributes to this debate by utilizing a newly constructed indicator of taxes on the rich to identify all instances of major tax reductions on the rich in 18 Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries between 1965 and 2015.

We then estimate the average effects of these major tax reforms on key macroeconomic aggregates.

We find tax cuts for the rich lead to higher income inequality in both the short- and medium-term. In contrast, such reforms do not have any significant effect on economic growth or unemployment.

Our results therefore provide strong evidence against the influential political–economic idea that tax cuts for the rich ‘trickle down’ to boost the wider economy.

Agree??? Major lulz.

Half of us have always known Trickle Down was fucking bullshit. Its the single biggest contributor to the income/wealth inequality in this country, which is the biggest driving force behind all of the problems in this country. The rich get richer while everyone else gets fucking pissed and is looking for someone to blame. 

The other half of the country will be too busy sucking orange cock in anticipation of future tax cuts for the rich to bother reading your fancy words.

4 year bump.  I love this place

I just like that the bump has nothing to do with the subject of the thread.  I think.  What is bulverism anyway?

Can we all agree Trickle Down (tax cuts for the rich) is a bulshit theory?

Not that I disagree (because I agree with you), but this is an example of Bulverism. 

PPP was trickle down.  Art Laffer continues to speak at Chamber of Commerce meetings. Trump’s tax cuts for the wealthy were trickle down and remain on the books. 

Trickle down economics a big lie, fake news, bullshit. The data is clear. Anyone subscribing to supply-side economics from Reagan and Thatcher to Larry Kudlow and Trump are not heroes. They are/were bullshit artists making money for their rich donors.
