Mark, I don't recall you complaining about the debt growing by trillions under Obama.
|
So Trump IS slowing down Obama's debt train?

Do you understand if it weren't for Republican tax cuts (going back to Reagan) and their un-needed wars we would be debt free? https://duanegraham.files.wordpress....to-deficit.jpg |

According to the Fraser Institute: "Justin Trudeau is the only prime minister in the last 120 years who has increased the federal per-person debt burden without a world war or recession to justify it." https://www.zerohedge.com/sites/defa...13-49-51_0.jpg |

Fortunately Trump is here to fix it, right? I mean I'm sure that this is one of the reasons you voted for him, right? Found this interesting video. Worth a few minutes to watch. |
I remember when it was only $10T. Then after Obama it was $20T. Nice job, libs! :thumbsup

it's not the tax cuts, it's those damn entitlement programs. They need to cut those and give more tax cuts to the rich

Dude...it's the POLITICAL playbook. Not the GOP. And I agree, the GOP is nothing more than a bunch of power hungry politician pieces of shit who spend like drunken sailors when they are in power...JUST like the Democrats. Difference between us is I KNOW that ALL politicians are pretty much a bunch of crooks. You seem to think that the Dems are "better" somehow??? WTF??? Talk about believing in Santa Claus lol |
Quote:
At least what Trump is doing is growing the economy. The Dems want to import the entire population of Central America to the United States and give them everything for free...while at the same time making Health Care paid for by the govt. AND "FREE" College for everyone too. The debt would be 3 times what it is right now and the economy would still be flatlined. |

This is basic math. You cannot spend more while cutting your revenue. It just doesn't work. Any grade school kid can show you the math.
I wasn't happy when the deficit went up under Obama. However, I understood why. We needed to do something, anything, to make the recession better. We needed to help people. Now.... We just increased the deficit for NO REASON. Of course the Republicans are blaming it on Social Security. Fuck this already. We paid into Social Security; It had better be there when I retire. Right now I am taking a leadership class put on the by the local Chamber of Commerce. It's giving me an inside look at how our city operates. It's amazing really. More or less, every department has a "fund" or account - Some have multiple accounts. Fire and police, for example, come from the general fund which comes from our taxes. Other departments, such as our parks and recreation department, are self sustaining meaning they pay for themselves (They raked in $1.1 million last year - surprise!). If the parks and recreation department takes in more money than it spends in one year, it cannot give or loan that money to the fire department for a new fire truck. Why doesn't our federal government work in the same way? |

Hillary would have been the best thing ever for our budget, because Republicans would have done just like tney did with Obama and did nothing... With Trump in Office they just opened the che k book and started swiping the credit card.. This is 100% Trump and Republicans in congress fault.. Yet you cant admit that because you just have to blame Hillary or Obama for something even when they arent in office.. Jesus you are ate up in tne head.. This deficet is perfect example why you never vote one party into control of everything. |

Bush signed the first one in 2008. I thought the whole thing was a giant ripoff of the American people. The banks got "saved" and then STILL foreclosed on people's homes. :( That trillion should have been spent by paying off people's mortgages. Then the banks would have been solvent (since the whole problem was the collapse of the housing market and the banks holding mortgages that were all underwater). Instead that money just went "poof", up in smoke. And the actual people of this country suffered greatly as they lost their homes and jobs. |
Robbie changed his tune ... has a new song .... :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Problem is not so much that Trump is increasing debt, its that he's spending it on fucking nothing except day to day running of the country and enriching the pockets of the 1%
World is out of recession, its a boom time, sensible countries increase infrastructure spending and bring debt under control. The business tax cuts are not generating 30% of the income they needed too justify themselves. When is the American public going to wake up that you've been conned? |

Still feel exactly the same about how things should work as I did when I voted for Obama in 2008 and Gary Johnson in 2012 and Trump in 2016. Besides...this isn't about me or anybody else on a porn message board. None of us did this to our country. Politicians in Washington D.C. have been growing the national debt for decades. And try to STOP spending? IMPOSSIBLE. In Washington D.C. if you don't raise the amount for the new year for each program by the amount that was talked about...it's called a "cut". They actually spend MORE money and call it a cut. But I'll repeat myself for you: At least Trump has made moves that are actually working for the economy. Pres. Obama failed at that...remember his attempts to stimulate the economy: "This will create shovel ready jobs." And then a year later: "I guess those jobs weren't as shovel ready as I thought...hah-hah" So if temporary spending is needed to REALLY get the economy going, which it has, then so be it. But the debt needs to be addressed. I've heard that all my life. And it never is really addressed by anyone. |

Funny how the deficit and spending were what you claimed to hate under Obama even though the deficit was getting smaller with Obama.. Now Trump goes on a shopping spree with our tax dollars and suddenly it's no big deal.. I wish you would find some consistency in your thinking, because we can't take you seriously when you flip flop based on which party is in office.. I do find it odd that you right wingers love to idolize criminals.. |
Chump! The great bankruptor, tax evader, and fraud. The right love their cult leader!

That's like taking a social economics class from Acorn. |

IMO the modality of the bail outs were not the main problem...the problem was they did not put like 1000 top bankers that took part in it in jail for like 20-30 years hard labor with no parole...they should still be in jail making cheap shit for wallmart... but no...the bankers even paid themselves a bonus...this is literally unbelievable even though I know it happened I can not believe it :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh |

Hint. Hillary'y husband. |
Quote:
They love him. And all the people now making more money (GDP rate over 4%). Yep, we love him too. Am I a member of a "cult" because the guy is doing what he told us he would do in the campaign? I guess that might seem strange to some people who are used to politicians lying through their teeth about what they will do once in office. |
Quote:
Congress did that. Pres. Clinton signed it. But at the time it did look like a good idea. The economy was strong...and owning your own home is THE "American Dream". Of course human nature being what it is...banks figured out ways to fuck it up. lol They put people into homes they couldn't afford if anything were to go wrong. And of course when it DID go wrong...shit hit the fan. |

Like what? That new wonderful health insurance at such a cheaper rate? The wall that Mexico was going to pay for? Hillary in jail? Yes, you are without a doubt a member of a "cult", and a dangerous one at that. https://scontent.fapa1-1.fna.fbcdn.n...cb&oe=5C5C010B |
