    Care to explain again? Which economic theory are you supporting to justify this action? BTW, this might be more in the realm of micro rather than macro but since you got through Econ 101, lets hear your explanation.

    Which taxes on profits earned are built into the price of goods and services? Taxes on profits are on the bottom line and not part of COGs. They are not passed on to anyone in the form of higher costs or prices.

    Supply and Demand - the effect of the price of goods. Lower prices result in more consumption resulting in more jobs resulting in higher gdp resulting in a higher real median wage in a higher standard of living.

    ECON 101.

    In other words, if the prices are almost zero, the economy grows to infinity and beyond!

    No, if the corporate tax rate is zero economic growth is maximized. There are other costs of production that factor into the price of a product. The corporate income tax is added into the final price of a product and so is considered a cost of production.

    I would suggest a refresher course in ECON 101. A good book is "Economics in One Lesson". Good luck with that.

    The kicker for me from the start of this "pandemic fantasy" was how many of these jab-junkies got onboard with multiple human DNA altering genetic injections posing as life saving miracle "vaccines"....:mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

    Corporate income taxes are NOT part of the price of goods and services. They are levied after the income statement produces a net profit.

    The taxes are included in the price of goods to produce an acceptable after tax profit margin for each company. ECON 101. Do your homework.

    You're peddling the nonsense business passes corporate taxes along in prices. The fact is that business charges as much as it can get for what they sell and taxes come off the bottom line. The business may be able to pasa along the taxes in higher prices, or it may have to eat some of the tax.

    There is no such thing as a “DNA altering genetic injections”

    Yes, and it even has video link showing Trump issuing the close-down guidelines on national TV. And no, Fauci did not hold a gun to his head to force him to do it. Which part are you struggling to understand? Why do you think its headlines: "Trump issues stricter guidelines to stop virus spread"

    Its not surprising he'd deny ever doing it, or try to blame it on others (like you are trying to do), Liars lie, Its what they do.

    At some point Trump leg humpers need to learn to own & accept the things their political leader did. In this case he issued close-down guidelines, and people like DeSantis said "Yes Sir" and closed down their States. It is what it is.

    I know. LOL. I'll never forget the "it'll be gone by Easter" line. Heh-heh.

    Almost all of them. You are suggesting that a business doesn't understand either a future tax liability or a past one. Not much business experience, huh?

    So did I. It wasn't his guidelines. The guidelines came from the CDC. Trump isn't even competent to determine medical mitigation.

    So, you deny Trump issued the guidelines on national TV, even though I provided the video of him doing it. Got it.

    He DID issue the close-down guideline on national TV. It was an official instruction from the president of the United States. No one cares who wrote the actual words. If you ask Trump to use his own words, he'll tell you to use Lysol or a lasers in your ass.

    No further comment. Denial is not just a river in Egypt.

    The 30 days came from the medical experts. The decision to keep states locked down came from the respective governors.

    The lockdowns caused much more harm than good. It is refreshing to see that progressives now realize that.
