If I understand my right-wing economics correctly, the solution to the jobs situation is simple. Everyone knows that in all cases cutting taxes produces profound growth in jobs with no negative consequences.

I have heard some speculation that this means we should simply eliminate taxes altogether. The naïve might buy that. I, however, would take it to the next level. Eliminate all taxes, obviously, but then go all in. Next, garnish all wages in inverse proportion to earnings for upwards redistribution. By way of grants, or "bailout" money, this county would be on a road to developing a class of people capable of confronting the challenges of governance without wasting their talents seeking tax shelters and exchanging money between each others' charities. Rather, they would do what it took to maintain order and security.

According to such legitimate news sources as Fox News, the New York Post, and the Washington Times, the Antebellum South was the cultural apex of civilization on this continent. A return is what this once great nation needs. A return to those simpler times when the working poor, earning the most meager of wages, could look down yet on the earners of no wages. In these enlightened times, the pampered wageless class would not be restricted by hue of skin (at least not strictly). The time may come when young black men or even women will dream of someday owning employing white unwaged persons. All men will have an equal right to suck at the teat of beneficent and benevolent masters, whilst having all their health care provided free of charge and nearly free of service.

Yes, this is truly an idea whose time has come. Back.
