Obama's Tax "Cut" for non tax payers

This is a crucial distinction between the economic policies of the Republicans and the Democrats.

The Republicans tend to cut or eliminate altogether taxes on the wealthier citizens and large business with the (stated) goal of a “trickle down” effect.
The Democrats tend to direct their “wealth redistribution” efforts towards the less wealthy, with the (stated) aim of a “ripple” effect. (note that BOTH parties work to “redistribute the wealth”, just to different recipients)

NO!

The effect of wealth redistribution is exactly that.

Reducing taxes on those who are productive makes them more productive and creates new wealth in the form of new businesses, new jobs, etc.
