Have you seen anything from the dems that's "positive, visionary, reasonable or workable?"
I'd call Trump, Cruz or Carson all of that. Why do you not see that?
Are you showing your left leaning tendencies, Mac?
Well yeah, I do lean Left.
So let's look at the GOP's approach, and I'm talking about the image it is portraying to the public: Cut this, cut that, eliminate that over there. Freeloaders. Rapists. The 47%. Deregulate financial markets after the Meltdown. Okay, what exactly is being said to inspire people?
.
The country is so far in debt that the light at the end of the tunnel is gone. We are on the fast track to total and complete financial implosion. So you are you trying to tell me things SHOULDN'T be cut? Do you SPEND MORE when YOU run out of money? Don't tell me you're dumb.
I can think of a few trillion dollars that pissed on a Middle East hornet's nest and cost us the lives, limbs and minds of thousands of young American soldiers.
But tell us
exactly what you would cut and how much it would save.
.
Well then I take it you're not happy with obama and the dems for getting us in more middle east embroilments since he's taken office.
If I was president, I would sit down with a list of ALL government agencies, and I would start at the top and eliminate every single one, one by one, that was not of vital importance to the nation.
Now tell me EXACTLY what you would cut, if anything, or would just continue the status quo and welcome the impending financial melt down?
I know that none of this would be happening if it were not for us shoving our nose into Iraq & Afghanistan in the first place.
When you can show me exactly what you would cut, it will be easier to take the spending complaints seriously.
No cuts come to mind, although I would immediately create a top-priority initiative to maximize the efficiency of all government spending. That would be a nice, long project.
I'd then add two new marginal tax rates on top of existing rates, 44.9% and 49.9%, with new minimum effective tax rates up and down the margins.
Next I'd decrease corporate tax rates to 12% with a 5% minimum effective tax rate.
Then I'd take a massive monkey off the backs of American business and create huge new business opportunities for insurance companies by expanding the Medicare/Medicare Advantage/Medicare Supplement program to all.
Among many other things, I'll be happy to go into as much detail as you'd like.
