Shame on you, he said nothing like that.

Sure, so says you. The numbers didn’t say that at all.
Don’t kid yourself. Both parties always spend money, but on different things. Democrats just prefer to take money and dole it back out as they see fit. They despise personal resposibility because it leads to less control for them.
Yeah, the ultra-rich are starting to figure out that us above average, non-mediocre folks don’t know what were are doing. It is you mediocre and the vast majority of the less than mediocre folks that are the real brainiacs. I swear, you can’t make this stuff up.
You actually have it completely backwards. In virtuallly every poll I have ever seen, most people trust the Republicans with the economy over Democrats. Have you ever heard an independent claim to be economcially liberal but socially conservative?
You have to be a real nitwit (or lazy)to trust Democrats with the economy. If it weren’t for the social issues you mention, Democrats would NEVER win an election. They take full advantage of social issues and even make some up. They make up ridiculous claims line “systematic racism” to stir up the conscience of guilt ridden white folk. They prey on the weakest minded and count public school indoctrination to secure the votes of the others.
I can’t speak for Ray’s situation, but I can assure you that the overwhemingly number of people who are dishonestly, meaning could work but choose not to, living off the government do NOT vote Republican. They are hard-core Democrats.
I can assure you that my “double-wide” is nicer than your luxurious ghetto “condo”.
I already did earlier in the thread... Geezus.
Bush got the PDA, and his response was, "Well, you've covered your ass." and then went fishing.
Actually, what he did was shift the tax burden away from the rich and onto to the working class. And you dummies cheered him on when he did it.
After the president submits a budget...
The real problem wasn't that he cut spending- as you say, it continued to increase. it was that he slashed revenues because he thought supply side fairy dust was a thing.

So who's source is more reputable and reliable, my source or yours?
No. The only increase he took on the working was SS contributions and Medicare, because simple numbers would prove the programs to be broke in a matter of years. But that had nothing to do with lower tax rates for anybody. SS and Medicare were pretty much self-funded through payroll tax. There was no shift because a decrease in income tax revenue had nothing to do with social programs.
The President can submit anything he wants, but that doesn't mean the House has to approve of it. Trump submitted several bills to the commies, and they didn't approve of it at all.
You can't face facts that it's the House--not the President that spends the money in our budget.
OCD Joe thinks he knows more than doctors. You know how these commies think. They believe they know more than anybody else. I had to go on disability, and because of his severe mental disorders he refuses to have addressed, he loses sleep over it every night. I was put out of work in November 2019. It's now 2021, and this mental midget has brought it up nearly every exchange of ours since. So you know you're dealing with somebody severely Fd up in the head.
Let me point out that this map is very deceptive. It uses the federal poverty level as the basis. As you can surmise, the cost of living varies significantly by state - $100 goes a lot further in West Virginia than it does in San Francisco, probably at least twice as far...
It was just an example, but since you mentioned it... You would pick San Francisco over West Virginia?Let me point out that this map is very deceptive. It uses the federal poverty level as the basis.

Yeah, but who the fuck would want to live in West Virginia?
It was just and exampled, but since you mentioned it... You would pick San Francisco over West Virginia?
No, you didn't have to go on disability. You just decided that you'd rather collect $1400 a month on disability than work for maybe $1500 a month.
Probably the same mentality your HUD neighbors have when they turn down work because it will cut into their benefits.
Mine is. because your source doesn't claim he didn't say it. And what we do know is that after the PDB, he took no action to enhance security.
Yes, the fact he increased Social Security taxes from 1% to 6% was kind of a big deal, but so was the fact he eliminated a lot of middle class tax deductions.
Yawn... Reagan had a congress willing to go along with anything he proposed, and they did. They slathered money on the military and cut taxes for the rich, and low and behold, the deficit tripled in 8 years.
You can't put enough emphasis on that. The entire national debt for the first 204 yeas the US was a thing, was less than a Trillion Dollars. Debt to GDP ration was 31% in 1980. When Ronald Reagan left, it was 51%. When Bush-41 left, it was 64%. Clinton got it down to 55% but When baby Bush left, it was 82%. Today, thanks to Trump, it is at 136%!
And you can see why. Once you get into the Supply Side Fairy Dust of not having to pay your debts, people actually expect MORE government. Look at all the cools stuff we get and no one has to pay for it.US National Debt by Year
The U.S. national debt was over $31 trillion in 2022. In 1930, it was just $16 billion. The biggest impacts have been defense spending, recessions, and recently, the pandemic.www.thebalance.com

Thank you for your service.It was just and exampled, but since you mentioned it... You would pick San Francisco over West Virginia?
Given a choice, yes. I much prefer living in Chicago, because I've lived her all my life (save when the Army sent me various places).
Yep. The taxes alone will kill you.Let me point out that this map is very deceptive. It uses the federal poverty level as the basis.

I like to watch HGTV when global warming goes away and I can't work outside. It's amazing the difference in house prices in real America compared to those commie cities and states. I was watching reruns of the show My Lottery Dream Home yesterday. One episode was a family who lived in Montana. For 600K, he was showing them homes that looked like ski lodges. 600K in a commie city, you get a 2 bedroom house about 1,200 sq ft and a postage stamp backyard on a busy street.
My cousin moved to Commeifornia after she got married. She ended up in a divorce and continued to raise her 2 daughters there that are now adults. She wants to move back to Ohio. Last time I seen her was when she came to town about 5 years ago when we had a family party. We got to talking about rental property since I'm a landlord and her father and mine are both landlords. She said to make ends meet after her divorce, she rented out her in-law suite. It was a very small bedroom/ bathroom/ kitchenette setup. She was renting it out for $1,.200 a month. She not only got a tenant immediately, but had a line of people wanting the tiny place. I charged less than half of that for my units, and they are all 2 bedrooms with a large parking lot, and a beautiful large backyard with a fireplace.
Just keep showing your mental disadvantages Joe. Where do you come up with this $1,400 a month? You are so Fd up in the head you can't even distinguish between disability and the stimulus check. You are on your way to becoming just like Dementia, and probably worse by the time you reach his age.
My source explains what he knew and didn't know at the time. It's CBS, one of your very own, and way more credible than your source.
But it had nothing to do with decreasing taxes on our corporations and businesses. There was no way to take from one and give to the other.
All irrelevant. All appropriation bills originate in the House. The House was Democrat led half of Trump's term. It was Republican led during most of Clinton's two terms. It was Republican led during most of DumBama's two terms which is why deficit spending went down.
It can explain all it wants, the fact he said, "you covered your ass" is documented. So is his lack of action.
Sure there was, and that's exactly what he did.
Actually, it went down because Obama finally let the Bush Tax Giveaways expire and he saved the economy. Not that you would ever give the black guy credit.
I am white. If privilege applied to me because of my skin color, I would be earning a high 5 figure income with a degree from a college of my choosing on the back of a full-ride scholarship. My privilege would have shielded me from some of the dumbest decisions I ever made in my life. I wouldn't be here dedicating almost 80% of mine and my grandmother's monthly income to bills and survival. We don't enjoy any privilege because of our skin color. Being white never made our lives any easier.
We are a lower-middle-class family who barely has enough money to make ends meet. If there was a privilege, we never knew about it. I am sure the billions of white people who existed in the world before me and throughout history who suffered from poverty, famines, genocide, murder, cruel dictatorships... would have loved to have known about the privilege their skin color supposedly imbued them with. Maybe it would have spared their lives and shielded them from unnecessary suffering. White privilege is hogwash. It reeks of jealousy and has no basis in reality.
My white privilege does not exist.
Actually, I went by Social Security's own calculator. If you made 47-60K as a truck driver (the average for truck drivers in Ohio) then the number is actually 1664 month... Whoops. That's still pretty pathetic.
That's like 20K a year.
