My name is rose living in USA, My <br />husband left me for a good 3 years now, and i love him so much, i have been <br />looking for a way to get him back since then. i have tried many options but <br />he did not come back, until i met a friend that darted me to Dr.love a <br />spell caster, who helped me to bring back my husband after 2 weeks. Me and <br />my husband are living happily together today, That man is great, you can <br />contact him via email drlovetemple@gmail.com Now i will advice any serious <br />persons that found themselves in this kind of problem to contact him now a <br />fast solution without stress..

I'm Lisa Campbell from England, after 7 years of marriage my husband left me for another woman I did whatever I could to get him back but all I did was in vain I was sad, but I didn't lose hope of getting him back because I had faith in God. So I search online on how to get my husband back, and I came across a post of Dr Ojabu of how he helped a lady to get back her ex, I contacted him and told him the pain I was going through, he told me what to do and I did it, then he casted a love spell for me 48 hours later my husband called me and told me he is sorry for what he did and that he misses me very much, later that day he came back home and beg for my forgiveness, since then our love grew stronger. For the marvelous things Dr Ojabu has done for me it would be unfair for me not to let the whole world know that such a powerful spell caster do live. If you want to get back your ex fast email Dr Ojabu at drojabusolutiontemple@gmail.com or add him up on WhatsApp +2348039177826...

Economist Fred Foldvery writes:<br /><br />"In his article “‘Trickle-Down Theory’ and ‘Tax Cuts for the Rich,’” economist Thomas Sowell states that he could not find a single economist who has ever presented a trickle-down theory or advocated a trickle-down policy. No such theory is found in current textbooks or in books on the history of economic thought. In another article, Sowell challenged anyone to name an economist who advocated trickle-down; nobody was able to find one. “Trickle down” is a straw-man perpetuated by critics of economic freedom.<br /><br />[Foldvary then states]<br /><br />Substantial reductions in the highest tax rates have resulted in both greater tax revenue and greater employment and income for all people. Government revenue rises because there is greater production and also because lower tax rates shift financial assets from tax shelters such as municipal bonds to taxable income such as stocks, in order to obtain higher returns."<br /><br />---------------<br /><br />So, he first states that Sowell couldn't find any economists advocating trickle down, then describes trickle down himself and advocates it, and he is an economist himself.<br /><br />Seems to me either Foldvary or Sowell (and by extension David in Cal) or both of them are playing games with the definition of trickle down. <br />Not mmnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611810694571930415.post-84316613031902442292017-09-12T10:46:33.086-04:002017-09-12T10:46:33.086-04:00mm -- I haven't read that book.

Thanks for the heads-up on this, I do see that, just as you wrote, Macomb County was named after the American Alexander Macomb in honor of his service as a general during the War of 1812, the county was not named after his slave owning paternal uncle, William.<br /><br />As a side note, according to Wikipedia, William Macomb died at Detroit in April, 1796 while still the owner of slaves. Though the United States had claimed the lands south of the modern U.S.-Canadian border based on the 1783 Treaty of Paris accords, the British continued to garrison eight forts on the U.S. side of that border, thereafter, and control the regions around them. Two of those forts were on Lake Champlain and the other six were along the Great Lakes, including the one at Detroit.<br /><br />Finding themselves again at war with France in the 1790s, the British sought to guarantee U.S. neutrality by signing the Jay Treaty which stipulated a British withdrawal from the eight forts in 1796. Fort Detroit, itself, was surrendered on July 11, 1796.<br /><br />William Macomb had served from 1792 both as a member of the 1st Parliament of Upper Canada -a body set up by the UK Parliament to represent the English speakers living in a separate part of Quebec from the French speakers there- and as a judge in Upper Canada. Thus it would seem the slave owning Macomb had remained loyal to the Crown until the end of his life and was never an American.
