Cutting January Taxes

More From Rick Perry

Our practical choice is not between a tax-cut deficit and a budgetary surplus. it is between two kinds of deficits: a chronic deficit of inertia, as the unwanted result of inadequate revenues and a restricted economy; or a temporary deficit of transition, resulting from a tax cut designed to boost the economy, increase tax revenues, and achieve -- and i believe this can be done -- a budget surplus. the first type of deficit is a sign of waste and weakness; the second reflects an investment in the future.
Believe Cutting Two
The left does understand how raising taxes reduces economic activity. how about their desire for increasing cigarette taxes, soda taxes? what are they trying to do? get you to buy less. they know. they know that higher taxes reduce activity. it's real simple: if you want more of an activity, lower taxes on it. if you want less of an activity, raise taxes. so if you want more jobs? it's very simple. you lower payroll taxes. if you don't want as many jobs, then you raise corporate taxes. it's that simple, folks.
Real Simple Desire
January. it was all things. and it was one thing, like a solid door. its cold sealed the city in a gray capsule. january was moments, and january was a year. january rained the moments down, and froze them in her memory: [...]every human action seemed to yield a magic. january was a two-faced month, jangling like jester's bells, crackling like snow crust, pure as any beginning, grim as an old man, mysteriously familiar yet unknown, like a word one can almost but not quite define.
Memories Men Two
This is the first time a newly inaugurated president has had any impact on a current budget." what that means is that normally when a president's inaugurated in january, the budget for the first calendar year of his term or the first nine months is already done. so from january 21st all the way 'til october when the new budget's done, the president has to deal with the previous congress' budget and has nothing to say about it. what they're saying is that donald trump has had a record-breaking, never-before-seen thing by having an impact on the budget in his first year.
Mean President Done
Once committed to fight, cut. everything else is secondary. cut. that is your duty, your purpose, your hunger. there is no rule more important, no commitment that overrides that one. cut. cut from the void, not from bewilderment. cut the enemy as quickly and directly as possible. cut decisively, resolutely. cut into the enemy’s strength. flow through the gaps in his guard. cut him. cut him down utterly. don’t allow him a breath. crush him. cut him without mercy to the depths of his spirit." -richard rahl
Crush Commitment Fighting
It is a paradoxical truth that tax rates are too high and tax revenues are too low and the soundest way to raise the revenues in the long run is to cut the rates now cutting taxes now is not to incur a budget deficit, but to achieve the more prosperous, expanding economy which can bring a budget surplus.

Running Men Balls
To describe this film as dishonest and demagogic would almost be to promote those terms to the level of respectability. to describe this film as a piece of crap would be to run the risk of a discourse that would never again rise above the excremental. to describe it as an exercise in facile crowd-pleasing would be too obvious. fahrenheit 9/11 is a sinister exercise in moral frivolity, crudely disguised as an exercise in seriousness.
