Raising taxes will reduce deficits which will help.
In the short term, but in the long term the economy slows, decreasing tax revenues and increasing personal debt. Prices are high due to high inflation over the last 3 years. Many need all their paycheck just for sustenance. Raising taxes will only put more pressure on them.
Replacing insurance with single payer will also reduce costs and reduce health care inflation.
Most certainly not the case for those of us with private insurance provided by our corporation. If Obamacare is any indication, the cost for those of us that make money will be exorbitant. You speak of lowering the deficit above and then talk about putting everyone on a single payer health system. Taxes would need to be raised significantly on everyone just to maintain the current deficit, much less lowering it. This doesn’t even account for the influx of illegals and migrants crossing the border that would be paying nothing and getting care. Of course another route would be to lower the quality of care by paying doctors much less, which is what the NHS does and why most doctors in the UK are foreign born. The best and the brightest in this country would no longer go that route, thus lowering the quality of care.
Deporting millions of people in the work force is going to worsen labor shortages and cause inflation
Then let’s let the entire world in for freebees. They can work, under the table, and send money back to their families. We need more workers to lower our costs, right? We will take care of them while they are here, they just won’t have to pay for anything nor be responsible for their own actions since we don’t even know who they are. Doesn’t sound logical does it? Yeah, its stupid.
Allowing people to work here is fine. Allowing them to walk across the border with no checks, giving them sanctuary and then pushing for amnesty is just plain dumb, unless the goal is to destroy our sovereignty and ultimately our country, in which case it is brilliant.
Tariffs and trade wars cause inflation.
This administration is implementing tariffs and Canada is following suit.
He’s going to blow up deficits and increase inflation.
The deficit under this administration is higher than the first 3 years of Trump’s. It is slightly lower than Trump’s 4th year but there was this thing called COVID at that time. I think you know all about inflation during this administration.
The proof is in the pudding. Both inflation and deficit spending were lower under Trump that Biden/Harris, with the exception of the COVID year.
Trump’s policies were far better for the underlying strength of our economy than Biden’s. Harris’ policies are even further left, meaning even worse that Biden.
Not to mention his crazy idea about having input on federal reserve rate changes to lower them quickly and drive up inflation.
Both rates and inflation were low under Trump. Not sure what you are talking about.
I didn’t mention anything about foriegn policy, but Biden’s is disasterous on nearly every level. There is no reason to think it would be better under a Harris administration. They have significantly weakened the US power throughout the world and caused worldwide instability. Our enemies don’t fear us because our leadership is soft as Charmin.
