    That's simple indeed! Maybe you can also explain to us why, in general, economies perform better under left leaning governments.

      I'll be more than happy to answer just as soon as you answer my question. I'm gonna stop responding when I think you're playing games and not giving an honest answer. So far you're doing pretty good. Let that continue.

                Have a good night. I will never try to engage you in a serious conversation again. You're not interested in that. Good night.

                  In a nutshell, rich people create jobs. The less they pay in taxes, the more they have to pay in labor. And to spend more on buying merchandise which also creates jobs.

                  It also happened when Reagan cut taxes and when JFK cut taxes.

                    It should also be noted that Clinton cut taxes in his 2nd term.

                              NASA landing 2nd Mars Rover Feb 18th

                              Feb. 18: We're Landing a Rover on Mars! - YouTube

                              ... in a repeat of the first successful landing, due to the thin Martian atmosphere, the Rover package will consist of a parachute drop, followed by a rocket braking maneuver, followed by a tethered decent onto the surface. This mission will also include a test of a drone to widen the scope that the lunar rover can recon.

                              Both China and the United Arab Emirates will simultaneously have their Mars exploration rockets orbit the planet at the same time as the US effort.
