The debt limit!

[Ray From Cleveland]

Obama didn't let the military go to hell. There were complaints throughout the Iraq War that your military was poorly equipped.

Also, it's a complete fiction that you're protecting Canada from ANYTHING. The ONLY country in the world which has EVER attacked Canada, was YOU, in 1812.

Without us the Chinese would be taking over your country in two days. You ingrates don't realize how the US military being the strongest in the world protects more than just us. Without us you would have to build your own military and never be able to afford all those social programs you people depend upon. The US is the primary funder of the UN.

US military so depleted by Obama it can't fight two wars, report says

The US military has been left only 'marginally able' to defend the nation, a report released by think tank The Heritage Foundation claims. US Army soldiers pictured (left) on exercise in South Korea.

First, in 1812 there was no Canada.. Second, the UK attacted first at Macinac Island and in Detroit.

They sure were. Record gasoline prices. Record inflation. Border problem the worst in 30 years according to the border patrol, 15 year high in interest rates, under threat from another nuclear armed country, labor shortage leading to supply chain shortages, record overdose deaths, failing stock market. Where would we be today without all those geniuses that put Democrats in charge?

Maybe finish the pipeline, there are tooooo many lawsuits against it. Water and food are our only protection.

Raise the hell out of the taxes for the fat of land , Business and the ultra wealthy. Screw them. Spread it between business and the fat boys or take the money needed just from the fat boys.Their easy street world has to come to a end.

If tramp can 3 x do it, Biden can do it 3 times. The republicans are a threat.

 

[Godboy]

Screw you ,you live in a country whose population decides what tax money should be spent on. Raise the hell out of taxes for business and fat boys, or just the fat boys.

No. You dont get to decide.

Money is a necessary part of our economy. It is a medium of exchange. Everybody needs money on their pocket to buy food and pay the rent.

That said.

Our constitution gives congress the authority to create our money. When congress creates money there is no debt and there is no interest.

So then, why do we borrow it from a private bank creating debt and interest? This makes no sense.

How could that be happening?

The program is implemented by the U.S. Small Business Administration

which classifies small biz as 500 or less......meaning these folks qualify>

Plenty of good paying jobs in our country, but we can't get Americans back to work after their paid vacation

17T to somewhere in the 30T range, in just a few years because of it

If we are to go into any debt, I prefer getting something out of it

well, that's what they keep selling us Ray, but the facts are we've lost millions of sm biz, an entire work force, supply line issues, and have a Congress handing billions to any dictator who shows up dressed badly

not once tried to reverse any of Reagan's policies?

This makes no sense.

It will keep going up, no Congress or President will ever drop the debt. It is just politics as usual.

Clinton did, first surplus since the 1970s

The only way to pay off the debt is for everyone to turn in all of their money.

You mean Newt Gingrich did.

Bad news for ya, and that is the oil is crossing the US anyway, only in trains instead of a pipeline. Which do you think poses the bigger threat to food and water?

Why are Republicans only concerned with the debt limit when Democrats are President?

Why are Democrats only concerned with rising debt when the Republicans are President?

 

[rightwinger]

We are more concerned with reduced revenue

 

[Ray From Cleveland]

Yeah, when the left talks about Trump, that's what they bring up, lack of revenue.

 

[Papageorgio]

A Republican House and a Republican Senate and a Democrat as President. Gingrich was the Speaker of the House and was responsible for negotiating the surplus. A Republican Congress and Democratic President work well, as long as there is strong leadership, Gingrich and Clinton were strong leaders. The debt did go from 1993 to 2001.

Doesn’t stop you from bitching about rising debt when Republicans are in charge, just look at this thread.

Paying it off isn’t going to happen overnight, it would take years of cuts and tax hikes.

Link us up to which year under Slick our debt went down, Troll.

 

[Clipper]

The ploy is to get Democrats to the table to work on spending cuts. Democrats don't want to do that. They want to continue pork spending and vote buying and raise taxes on our job creators to try and cover some of it. The Republicans are putting their foot down. No more hundreds of billions going to Ukraine and climate change which man has zero control over.

No more money for Ukraine so that Russia can take over the Country. Brilliant. Putin & his army hasen't murdered enough women & children to suit your sorry ass yet & your party, that it? N

Those "job creators" have recieved trillions of dollars in tax cuts since your boy Reagen was POTUS.
