Think Progress again shows its Marxist tendencies. Their latest hitpiece on McCain is his economic plan. He emphasizes lower tax rates to stimulate the economy. He wants to lower our Corporate Tax rates to be competitive with the rates of other countries. The goals of this are stop outsourcing and create jobs here in the States. Think Progress is against this so they attack.
McCain Adviser: McCain’s Tax Plan ‘Will Bring The Budget To Balance By The End Of His First Term’»
The line of attack for Think Progress is that by lowering taxes revenues will go down, thus increasing the deficit. This is a tired and outdated attack. Lower Taxes actually increase revenue as more income is declared since the rate is lower. The problem is spending. If spending is held down and under control, the increased revenue will eventually balance the budget. This is Economics 101.
The real reason Think Progress is against lower taxes is because they want new government programs and a redistribution of income. This is very Marxist and it reveals their true nature. Think Progress believes in Marxist economics and that the government can solve all problems. They want Americans to become serfs, and the Government to become the lords. That’s their real agenda.

TP doesn’t trust the individual to decide what he or she wants to do economically. They think the only way to “fix” the economy is to put power in the hands of a strong government that will impose an artificially “class-less” society through wealth redistribution… and possibly seizing private property and assets and sending successful capitalists to the guillotine.
They talk about this in the comment section, the man they hate the most is Bush, not because he made mistakes, but more because he’s from a rich family. This is why they made up the “Blood for oil” libel against him. They call for his death frequently too, it’s like the French revolution over there!

Konservo,
The people over at Think Progress believe they know what’s best for everyone. They have a mindset that they are elite and knows what’s best for socity. They don’t believe in individual responsibility.They are no differnt from the Communists and Nazis.
