Of course we can. Taxing businesses and million/billionaires at a reasonable rate.But neither is it tRump, who has already added trillions of dollars to the debt.Yes, the economy is definitely robust and rolling with the punches.It has but it started at 9%. Sustainability is impressive
But how many more can it take?
What annoys me is how much debt we have. China has zero, I believe. We are the most innovative country so there is that. For the Democrats to win in 2020 they need to run a business savvy candidate IMO. That is neither Sanders nor Biden.
That is your opinion but many disagree. The debt build and deficit are disappointing. But it’s impossible to reduce the deficit without attacking entitlements and neither party wants to do that.
I take exception to the term "entitlements" BTW.
Won’t help. Our taxes are already very high. Here in MA, we have state tax, gas tax, excise tax, tax on Cell and Cable. Your solution is to raise revenue by taxing businesses and people but that will also slow the economy down. But let’s say you raise revenues, you still have expenses to attack or do you want to leave them as is? Medicare and Medicaid are broken and the SSI formula no longer works as people are living longer.
