http://www.fallacyfiles.org/archive062011.html#06142011 Condensed verion: Herman Cain has no clue what he's talking about. Lest I appear unfair and unbalanced, the remainder of the blog entry picks on the DNC reaction to the GOP debate, pointing out that it was a very skewed view of the debate....which is true of course.
Caine is amazing, we have the lowest taxes in 50 years and the employment rate remains high, so he wants to lower taxes more--ROFLOLOL. Great business man--if something does not work, just keep doing it anyway, maybe the results will change!
Cain is a corporate stooge and Exbanker shill. This guy has no chance, all he spouts are failed policies in "Cain Jargon".
In other words, instead of throwing billions and billions of dollars down the make war toilet, give this money to the people and let them go shopping. BOOM, INSTANT ECONOMIC, DUBAI-STYLE RECOVERY !
INSIDE THE CAIN TAX PLAN http://economix.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/10/11/inside-the-cain-tax-plan/?pagemode=print At a minimum, the Cain plan is a distributional monstrosity. The poor would pay more while the rich would have their taxes cut, with no guarantee that economic growth will increase and good reason to believe that the budget deficit will increase. Even allowing for the poorly thought through promises routinely made on the campaign trail, Mr. Cains tax plan stands out as exceptionally ill conceived.
All the GOP economics plans are equally lame, Cain's plan isn't significantly different or worse than that of Perry, Romney, or Ron Paul. They don't even say it's anything but what it is, funneling money to the top bracket by cuts in services to the bottom 80%. All of them say it flat out but claim it will stimulate jobs, which is clearly the opposite of what supply side does. All supply side economics does is take money out of the hands of people whose demand for goods or services would otherwise create jobs. With average income losing ground due to hidden inflation caused by the Fed's various bailouts to the rich, and with new services cuts and higher costs, the economy will sink even faster nomatter which Republican or even seemingly Democrat, anymore, gets elected. And Ron Paul will just do it faster and more directly.
^Beat me to it. There are a lot of racists in this thread who just don't want to see a real black president.
Funnily enough, I never saw nearly as many liberals call others racist for not supporting Obama as I am with conservatives calling others racist for not supporting Cain. Are you guys that sensitive?
Some facts are not racist, even though their reality depends on the views of racists. FACT-The GOP/Republican Party will NOT field a black candidate in the next election. Another fact is that the Republicans have NO real candidate yet. The Mormon is going to cost them the votes of all the Fundamental Right-wing Christians who will NEVER vote for a demon from a religious cult. So we have racism keeping one from making it, religion keeping another from making it. Idiocy keeping another 12 from making it,and that leaves the republicans with NO viable candidate. Actually Perry can be considered to be out of it by reasons of HIS racism. The only person that might have a chance is Chris Christy and with all the remarks that Savage, Rush, Boortz, Hannity and the other right wing pundits have been making for years about fat people,he would never have a chance either, even though he politically and intelligence wise is their best bet.
REAL black? hahahaha!!!... your so lame. What qualifies Cain as "real' black?... what disqualifies Obama as real black? I would say that I cant wait to read about how you have come to your qualifiers as "real black" without you sounding like an idiot... but your not even going to answer the question.
How can Cain possibly lose ? 9.9.9 creates jobs and lowers taxes. Nay Sayers are always wrong. Says people who have never led in government. My debate point with Cain on his mythical loaf of bread. The farmer who raises wheat will pay more for fuel and supplies needed to plant and harvest wheat..Those cost will not be off set by other deductions that are taken away. Transportation of the harvested wheat will cost more because of the 9 % on fuel just to ship the wheat at every level. The production cost went UP and so will the price of Flour. When bread is made at the baker the cost will go up 9% for fuel at his business and his transportation cost.The cost of Bread will not go down. When the consumer buys the bread they will pay 9% more.. THESE are not hidden taxes..but very real. Cain talks about everything going down..but I bet a zillion pizzas they wont. This is just more theoretical ideas being floated by progressives..The existing taxes wont go away and we get A European Sales tax. It hasn't worked in Europe and it wont work here.. politicians refuse to give up any money stream.. a untested theory.. implemented by a un tested politician.. and you just saw what happened last time.. The plain vanilla Romney looks better every passing moment.
At least Cain has a plan! He must be the nominee to stop the racist baiting Left wing. Cain the perfect solution to counter the lefts hatred. He gets my vote. Repubs you can not put a whitey against the democrats right now. Go Cain!!!!!!!!
Cains plan. Build a wall 20 feet high and electrocute anyone trying to cross.. ah !..It's a joke ! ( comment made in Tennessee this weekend..) Do you think the brown vote is laughing ? Muslims will not be part of my administration.. Do you think the Muslim vote is laughing ? The more you hear..the more you should fear.. He now does not get any of my support in anything. I am a conservative, not a idiot voting for this dangerous fool.
You got it backwards, who ever wrote that blog is clueless and has no idea how the economy works. Cain has proven his knowledge.
