So the true purpose becomes visible

Do you want trump to slash spending by 1 trillion in next years budget?

No, this budget.

Or reduce spending gradually over time?

It isn't going to happen.

 

[Mac-7]

No, this budget.

Now you are blowing smoke

You wont support any deficit reduction that trump proposes

 

[pknopp]

Now you are blowing smoke

You wont support any deficit reduction that trump proposes

If he actually proposes any we will see. Don't hold your breath.

 

[Mac-7]

If he actually proposes any we will see. Don't hold your breath.

There are 500 billionaires in America

If you could take a billion from each one thats only half a trillion of a one trillion defecit

Along with actual cuts, it's a good start.

 

[Mac-7]

10% across the board.

10% is too much to cut in one year

But over 10 years its a good idea

 

[Mac-7]

Along with actual cuts, it's a good start.

The billionaires will take their money and run

America’s economy leads the world because we let people be rich instead of confiscating wealth

 

[pknopp]

The billionaires will take their money and run

See ya.

America’s economy leads the world because we let people be rich instead of confiscating wealth

Until the debt comes due and it will.

After mass firings, the IRS is poised to close audits of wealthy taxpayers​

Some audits of rich individuals and corporations are at immediate risk of being closed prematurely without action due to a lack of personnel to complete them, according to several current employees at the tax agency. The handful of imperiled audits that agents described in general terms to the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists could amount to millions of lost dollars in public revenue from wealthy people and corporations, although agents said this likely represents only a sliver of the agency’s lost revenue stemming from the firings.

“All of a sudden, these cases are going to be closed and we’re going to look like idiots,” said a senior revenue agent, who works within the IRS’s Large Business & International Division, which audits the country’s wealthiest taxpayers. “There is no one left to work them. The remaining agents have full caseloads.”

Seems pretty obvious that this was the point, don't you think?

Protect the billionaires at all costsFuck the little guy, he doesn't matter.

We should get rid of the IRS completely and use some other method to collect taxes which doesn't involve a bloated government bureaucracy of filing tax returns. No one anywhere likes to file tax returns.

[Mac-7]

Cutting people that investigate tax fraud isn’t helping that.

We have a serious overspending problem that higher taxes cant solve

 

[Marener]

We have a serious overspending problem higher taxes cant solve

This isn’t about tax increases. It’s about rooting out tax fraud. Now you don’t want to find fraud? Really?

Higher taxes has to be a part of the solution.
