I guess my theory was right. Nothing but trolls on this forum.
This coming from a troll. So Howey lets reverse your question you and the other lefties are so concerned about where the money going to what you describe as corporate welfare will come from yet when it comes to funding new or increasing funding old social programs you have no such concerns over how to fund that why?
It’s a dynamic so familiar, it’s practically a cliche, but let’s go ahead and make the point anyway: congressional Republicans pretend to care deeply about the deficit, right up until tax cuts are on the table, at which point their deeply held principles fly out the window.
It’s a simple rule: if Democrats want to invest in the public, the deficit is paramount. When Republicans want to pass a tax break, the deficit is irrelevant.
Of course, the larger context makes the policy move look worse, at least for those paying attention. The Republicans who say $3.4 billion for the border crisis is too much are literally the same Republicans who have no problem approving tax breaks that cost 84 times as much money.
It’s about priorities, I guess.
Well here is a idea cut it all social and corporate until you get the nations financial house in some kind of order if not then everyone just admit you have no interest in cutting the national debt and getting the nation in any kind of fiscal order and wait for it to all come crashing down.I guess my theory was right.

Welfare is welfare. Whether it is food stamps or tax expenditures, everyone else has to pay for it. Or it has to be borrowed, adding to the national debt.
Simple as that.
And tax expenditures add up to $1.2 trillion every year. That's a lot of fucking welfare payments!
Steve Benen gets it right...as usual.

Did the Founding Fathers believe farmers should get a tax break on their farming equipment?
Didn't think so.
Welfare is welfare.

Welfare is welfare.
So you equate some trailer park trash getting fucked over and over and spawning 5 kids and snorting coke to farmers getting a break?
Oh you are one special bitch G5000. Get a grip girl.
Everything that comes before the Republicans in the House comes with it the caveat: It must be funded, usually by cutting welfare, school lunches, elderly care or other pesky matters.
But what about when the bill is something they want to please their corporate masters???
No problemo, they don't care if it's funded!
Good grief man or woman or whatever you are howey. Anything that can quickly move a business forward in this day and age quickly is a good thing.
Holy shit I accidently repped Howey. LOL
Allowing businesses to retain what is theirs in the first place is hardly "costly" to the government.

So the federal subsidizing of the oil companies doesn't cost anything? Gosh, that's great news.
Fossil Fuel Subsidies: Overview | Oil Change International
What are the estimates of fossil fuel subsidies in the United States?
As of July 2014, Oil Change International estimates the total value of U.S. subsidies to the fossil fuel industry at $37.5 billion annually, including international finance. This does not include military, health, climate, or local pollution costs. These subsidies have increased dramatically as U.S. oil and gas production has increased.""
^ one of the dumbest statements ever posted at USMBLook at how Howey thinks. This bill will help the average farmer with new equipment. Howey thinks a farmer is a corporate master.
How fucked up is Howey? A woman in an apartment. This is Howey.
And that's exactly why Progressives turn everything they touch into Detroit
Really?
Detroits problem is the tax base is too small to afford government.
1. Little in the way of police, so you have gangs running all over.
2. Schools are turning to shit as they can't afford teachers.
3. Infrastructure, forget about it!
You see, Detroit has far to little government.
No one offered Howey a new cork for his ass.
