It's The Tax Cuts Stupid!!

[RealDave]

Congress controls the purse strings, the POTUS does not.

The answer to our debt is NOT stealing more money from the taxpayers.

The answer to the debt is to destroy the United States of America.

We are submitting to mass robbery to serve the special interests of the ruling class. Why should we continue? In the name of patriotism?

The destruction of the US of A has been happening since 2009.

Yep, it was not taking us from a balanced budget to the worse recession in 80 years, it wasn't the two quagmire wars, it wasn't slashing revenue at a time of war. it wasn't unfunded tax cuts, it wasn't record earmarks, it wasn't a housing collapse & it certainly wasn't the near financial meltdown.

You people are just dumber than shit

We never had a balanced budget, the deficit went up every year. When government does what Enron did, it's suddenly OK and you sycophants believe the lying lawyers

So why don't you stop voting for people who spend so fucking much money? The US is going to take in almost $4 TTTTTrillion in revenue this year. How is that possibly not enough?

The Republicans are the ones who've been cutting taxes and continuing to spend like a drunk sailor. They're the ones who started borrowing from foreign banks. Can't you read the figures?

Over spending is the problem not tax cuts. You keep trying to blame the GOP when your party is just as responsible. You DO know that Congress controls the purse strings right?

The GOP controls congress. How is our spending?

According to the 0bama apologists, it's lower than ever.

So then you can't blame Obama for debt.

Over spending is the problem not tax cuts. You keep trying to blame the GOP when your party is just as responsible. You DO know that Congress controls the purse strings right?

The GOP controls congress. How is our spending?

According to the 0bama apologists, it's lower than ever.

So then you can't blame Obama for debt.

Most of Obama's new debt has been paying interest on the $12 trillion that was there when he took over. You didn't think those European banks were loaning those trillions interest free did you?

Most of it? You're delusional, interest rates are extremely low

It must be a drag to be that compulsive to actually spell and grammar check the Internet, and yet be so dumb you think correct grammar is wrong. But with that anal compulsion, you are obsessed with dicks, aren't you? Sorry guy, I don't swing that way. And even if I did, you? Eew

The only thing reagan did was make the rich richer. And saying tax breaks create anything but personal wealth is just a crock of shit.

The democrats lied to Reagan.....and spent all the money...it wasn't the tax cuts...it never is...it is the greedy, corrupt politicians spending every penny of tax money and then spending money they don't have....

One of the great lies of democrats ....that tax cuts don't work.....probably the 2nd greatest democrat lie ever told....

Lesson for ‘Fiscal Cliff’ negotiators: The Reagan-O’Neill tax hike

Reagan and the Republicans wanted to cut spending. O’Neill and the Democrats were insisting on raising taxes and especially raising tax rates. It had all the makings of the same kind of stalemate that exists in Washington today.

After weeks of wrangling, O’Neill and the Democrats would not budge on their insistence that raising taxes had to be part of the final deal.

To make it more palatable for Reagan, O’Neill offered a three-to-one ratio of spending cuts to tax increases.

On that basis — that the deal, on paper, was designed to result in a net shrinking of government — Reagan and enough Republicans signed on, over the strong objections of many anti-tax conservatives in the Republican ranks.

Thus was concluded the Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act (TEFRA), signed into law in September 1982.

In hindsight, Reagan came to see the deal as one of the biggest domestic errors of his presidency.

The tax increases went into effect immediately but as Reagan wrote in his memoirs, “later the Democrats reneged on their pledge and we never got those cuts,” so there was no shrinking in the size of government, and no taming of the deficit.

It's the Republican tax cuts for their rich buddies which was the problem. Look at the end of the Clinton years when the budget was balanced with a clear path to a paid up national debt. The first goddamned thing W Bush did was give his rich buddies not one but two substantial tax cuts then began to borrow from foreign banks to cover his spending. Like I said.....If you've got a goddamned thing to prop up your argument post the stuff so we can all appreciate it!!
