So what? The money STILL goes back into the economy one way or another. Once again, the only exception is if the cash is stacked in a vault and sealed up.

Is your mother’s maiden name Biden? Did you inherit your plagiarism? Your true character is showing, again. Next time save yourself some time and just post the link you’re copying from. Not the first time you’ve passed on information as if it were your own. Lazy and deceitful. Those are your pronouns.

You people are hopeless smucks.. when I write something you bitch about how poor it is etc, when I C & P you bitch about it not being mine,, If I post it, I agree with it. that makes it mine by agreement..

What is it you think I plagiarized?? can you even remember what it was or where it was or the subject.. what a duffus.

if you did not recognize it as C & P, you are not as smart as I thought and I am sorry you are so dumb..

Did you know at all that your link essentially says the same as mine.. buyback drives the share price up... now did you learn something??

This is just an idea. I could be wrong. I don't think you guy's objection to tax cuts has anything to do with trickledown economics or anything else in economics. I think it is pure jealously and you HATE the idea that some people our there are rich when you are not. It is SOOOOOOOOOO unfair! And the left is notorious for demanding laws that make things 'fair'....by their personal definition, of course.

I posted the link you plagiarized. 😂 I’m not surprised you’re upset about this. I’m sure it must be very embarrassing for you.

NO, poor writing on my part. I do believe that the rich do not have to rush out and spend the windfall money given them. They do not need to buy a car. boat, vacation... they already have money for that and more.. just put the new money away for future use.. maybe payoff some politician or something else worth while..

By vault, I was thinking accounts.. most use many differing banks and holding companies, watch for an opportunity rather then spend it now..


Okay. I guess we could call that delayed trickledown.

WTH was that response? You’re one sick puppy. You copied word for word from an online article, passed it off as your own, then start spewing unrelated BS at me for pointing it out. FO

Yes, I think they took advantage of everyone wanting safety, but how much do we need? A constantly open check book is not the solution.... Especially at the cost of so many needed things for our country.

In the 70s I worked a while for a little RR on the west side of Mpls.. a big RR built a new yard in the nw of the cities and that in fact put the little RR out of biz.. one solution was to make a light rail passenger line on the old right of way.. lost,,, said to be so expensive it would never work.. now in the 21st century the city and county, state and feds are in fact doing just that.. the cost??? over 10 time the cost from back in the 70s and much crying over that fact.. should have done it back in the day.. but it seems always put it off for later,, then the cost is higher..

What is making gas so expensive in the US?

Originally Answered: Why are gas prices so high in the United States?
Because the US is on Earth, and gas prices are higher across the globe.

While it’s normally unusual for a US President to have a significant impact on oil prices, this is one of those times. In April 2020, with American gas prices at the lowest of his presidency—but still higher than the lowest under Obama—Trump declared that low gas prices were bad for America. He then threatened to withhold the sale of arms to Saudi Arabia if OPEC—the world’s largest oil producer—didn’t commit to a two-year deal to slash production by 25% to drive up prices. Over that two year period, gas prices more than doubled. Thankfully, that deal has expired now, and OPEC had already begun to increase production again. Hopefully within a few months, the global oil supply will be back to normal, and prices will return to pre-pandemic levels.

“A stock buyback typically means that the price of the remaining outstanding shares increases. This is simple supply-and-demand economics: there are fewer outstanding shares, but the value of the company has not changed, therefore each share is worth more, so the price goes up.”

That is word for word taken from the site that JR posted! Why would you just not admit that you copied it instead of making this comment….. “What is it you think I plagiarized?? can you even remember what it was or where it was or the subject.. what a duffus.”

I don’t think he’s the one that needs a “remedial course in Debate!”……..LOL!

Next time read an article……..then summarize the information using your own words! Don’t be lazy and just copy it! This will alleviate you getting so triggered when caught and making this juvenile accusation……..”You are so dumb.. take a remedial course in debate or reading or art or something.. you and your kind are plague upon the face of America”

And you claim that we lie! 🤭

So you think when they buy back stocks they disappear? The same number of stocks exist.
