When have raising taxes EVER reduced cumulative debt you fucking moron?
Never since WWII.
Taxes have been raised by almost all the Democrat administrations and a couple of the Republican but yet debt increases every year, along with increased government spending. Even Slick Willy with his Hocus Pocus accounting had an increase in culumative debt after raising taxes.
My ranting is about you stupid shitheads who don't have a clue about fiscal responsibility.
If you are in debt then you only have two options:
1. Increase revenue to bring in more money to pay off the debt. Earning more money will work for private citizens but the government doesn't produce jackshit so it doesn't work. In fact, just the opposite. Increased taxation takes money out of the productive economy resulting in less government revenue.
2. Cut back on spending.
You stupid asshole Libtards never really want to cut back on spending. You just spend the additional money the increased taxes bring in.
In 2012 Ron Paul had a great budget plan to reduce Federal spending a trillion a year while maintaining Defense, Social Security and Medicare. Even maintaining most of the filthy welfare shit.
It was a trillion a year in 2012. If we had done what he suggested we could have paid down the debt $11 Trillion since then but you Libtards didn't want to suck it up and do the right thing.
