The Republicans have a plan to pay for their tax cuts.

Show me the cuts. Just prove it.

Betsy McCaughey: President Obama's Medicare Cuts Are Killing Seniors | Stock News & Stock Market Analysis - IBD

Romney’s right: Obamacare cuts Medicare by $716 billion. Here’s how.

Most of both articles was plain bullshit. I think you better do some more digging on what was actually cut vs what was proposed.

I don't know why I do this for you leftists. You challenge the right on what they claim, and when they provide proof, you just say it's BS. I'm not wasting anymore time on this. Believe what you want; rather what the Democrats tell you what to believe.

I'm not a leftist, but you don't and those articles don't tell 100% of the story. I am a centrist and have worked in this business many years for almost 30 years, yes there were some cuts but not anywhere near the article. l don't know why I have to school the far right.

So tell me this you republican's bitch that obamacare shut down rural hospitals, lack of Medicaid expansions shut down rural hospitals and any that are left will be shut down if pubs cut medicaid any farther.

Taxes were applied to all medical equipment, hospitals use quite a bit of medical equipment in case you didn't know. Next time you visit your dentist or Vet, ask them about Commie Care taxes. I did when my dentist gave me his bill. It's the first thing that came out of his mouth, and he pretty much leans to the left.

So the cost of all medical care increased dramatically, and some didn't have the ability to handle those new taxes, so they shut down.

Is this thread about the medical device tax? I thought we were debating ss and Medicare. Oh I know what hospitals use I spent two weeks in August in one the bill was $91,000 the insurance company contract took it down to $6500. You tell me why one simastatin cost $17.00 a day in the hospital when I can get 30 days for under $6.00. In the bill there was a charge from a brain MRI, never had one.

But lets stick to the subject which you aren't too far off of receiving. Even if you have a huge 401K or savings and you paid into ss since you started working probably 40 years ago for you don't you believe that is your money or are you just going to write it off?

Well the regressives here on USMB have been begging for a balanced budget. I say we oblige them and cut all the entitlement programs for a few years.

Will they praise Republicans and President Trump if this happens?

You LIE!!! Repubtards ALWAYS EXPLODE Spending!!! Trumptards don't have the stones to slash 10% spending across the board like Obama did with sequestration!!! Clinton & Democrats Slashed Spending in 1993 creating a Surplus in Clinton's second term!!!

Yea, they always do all you have to do is go back about 50 years to see that then a dem comes along and gets elected and they blame them.

It was just a matter of time before a republican congress decided to look at Social Security and Medicare cuts as a way to give billionaires and corporations their tax cuts.

And of course, the over 65 rubes will cheer this move as a way to Make America Great Again even as the dumb asses cut their own throats.

Hold on to every penny you are in the bottom 80%, particularly if you have or are planning to retire in the future.
But if you are in the top 20%, relax, life is good.
Mitch McConnell Calls for Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid Cuts After Passing Tax Cuts, Massive Defense Spending
After instituting a $1.5 trillion tax cut and signing off on a $675 billion budget for the Department of Defense, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said Tuesday that the only way to lower the record-high federal deficit would be to cut entitlement programs like Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security.

"It’s disappointing, but it’s not a Republican problem," McConnell said of the deficit, which grew 17 percent to $779 billion in fiscal year 2018. McConnell explained to Bloomberg that "it’s a bipartisan problem: Unwillingness to address the real drivers of the debt by doing anything to adjust those programs to the demographics of America in the future." The deficit has increased 77 percent since McConnell became majority leader in 2015.

New Treasury Department analysis on Monday revealed that corporate tax cuts had a significant impact on the deficit this year. Federal revenue rose by 0.04 percent in 2018, a nearly 100 percent decrease last year’s 1.5 percent. In fiscal year 2018, tax receipts on corporate income fell to $205 billion from $297 billion in 2017.

And look at the distribution of the tax cuts, through 2015.

So, if you are in the 80% and in the retirement mode now or down the road, more than likely cuts to Social Security and Medicare are really going to hurt you.
Now consider this, how many Trumpsters and supporters of his fascist party are going to get in the butt?
But have no fear, they don't care if they are getting fucked, Trump and the Fascist Party are like Gods of the World. After all, they are top ending the uber-wealthy, to "make America great again".

huh

Sending OUR money to DC to be wasted by idiot politicians is DUMB.

Ok doofus . I guess the country will run on smiles and sunshine .

shut it the fk down.

fifteen dollars an hour, at full time pays around two thousand in income tax.

With EITC they pay....


ZERO....and maybe even get a refund.

twit

cheaper than social services.

twat.

 

[danielpalos]

Sure......
Cut benefits to retirees, healthcare, the poor

Just so you can afford tax cuts for billionaires

One has nothing to do with the other.

Lol yes it does - it's called a budget.

Then why does the "budget" never reflect spending on Democrat things? Why is it only Republican spending where we have to find a way to fund it?

Because under Republicans, the rich get richer.

 

[danielpalos]

let's raise the minimum wage to raise more tax revenue.

Sure, pay them a little more and then tax the fuck out of them.

Jesus Christ.

fifteen dollars an hour, at full time pays around two thousand in income tax.

And that's what it is all about... Pay people more so we can ass-rape them for taxes. You people are gross.

they won't mind because they are making more. Government costs; only the right wing, "wants if for free".

 

[danielpalos]

"Son. I am reducing your allowance."

"But, Dad, how are you going to pay for that cut?"

"And, Dad, I was paying for my own stuff; now you get to pay for it."

 

[danielpalos]

During the 2016 election, Clinton & Trump published their 10 year budget plans. "With added interest, the Trump plan would add about $7.2 trillion to the national debt over the next decade. Because Clinton’s tax plan would reduce interest costs, it would trim the debt by $1.6 trillion over the next 10 years"

Republicans Voted for Trump because they PREFER MORE DEFICIT & DEBT!!!!!

It is their policy; the rich have to get richer; who cares about the Poor who are not, capitally worth it.

A new report indicates that the U.S. is the top competitive country in the world in several arenas such as innovation but the crazy angry hypocrite left continues to whine about it and try to grasp defeat from the jaws of victory.

Wait a minute....First you say they pay taxes, then when your bullshit gets called for the bullshit that it is, you then claim that the minimum wage can't even lift them out of the range of qualifying for a handout.

Trumps riding the obama bubble. He didn’t need to give tax breaks or make cuts either.

Trump isn't riding anything. He created this booming economy by himself and the Republicans. It's been two years since DumBama left. Nobody "rides" a bubble that long.

He rides the economy of the Great Obama

Sure he does, 2 years later? That dog doesn't run anymore. Nobody except the left is buying it.

Things were fine the day before the 2016 election. Trump just stimulated the economy with tax cuts. Bfd. Short term bump long term gonna cost us

It was more than just tax cuts. He removed the job killing Commie Care fines and requirements. He rescinded job killing government policies. An optimistic business environment is better than an uncertain business environment any day of the week when it comes to job creation.

It comes down to this. Our founders warned us and worried about the rich taking over our country. The rich/Corporations have taken over our country. You think that's going to benefit you, a middle class person? I don't.

Mitch McConnell says deficit ballooned because of Social Security, Medicare, not Republican Tax Cuts

You middle class Republicans and idiots who don't vote fucked us. I warned you and you all didn't believe or you denied that Republicans aim to kill social security, medicare or pre existing conditions. You deserve what you get Ray my boy.

Mitch McConnell says deficit ballooned because of Social Security, Medicare, not Republican Tax Cuts

Unfortunately you'll take me down with you. I fortunately have the ability to make up for how bad you fuck me by saving my ass off. Most people don't have that luxury. They will be the true victims.

But you know what? Fuck them. They should have voted or they should have not voted for Republicans. They/You get what is coming. You aren't going to get old Ray?

Where is the liberal media? Told you it isn't liberal. If it was it would be telling the American people what Republicans are really doing.

You resort to a fallacy of composition under our form of capitalism.

Solving simple poverty in our Republic, ensures full employment of capital resources and precludes your, "solution-less broken window fallacy".

The condition you are experiencing is called paranoia. Nobody is talking about ending preexisting conditions, nobody is talking about ending SS, and nobody is talking about ending Medicare.

If the founders didn’t want rich people in the future, they would have founded it as a Socialist country and not a Republic. What they really feared was a populous heavily dependent on the federal government.
