We're not even in a financial crisis, but Trump is borrowing as if we are. He is more Keynesian than Keynes!
You can't count the first year since that is the previous Presidents budget, only year 2 and forward.
I ma having a hard time finding that. (one that does not count year 1 for Obama or Trump)
Ah. So 2009's record deficit is all on Bush.
Got it.
That means Obama is to be credited for knocking the deficit down to almost a third of what he inherited.
And Trump DOBULED it in two years. And it is STILL climbing on his watch.
Trump is more Keynesian than Keynes!
Without a peep from the pseudocons who moaned and moaned and moaned and moaned about Obama's spending to the present day.
You want to cut the deficit? Lets live within our means. And it means lots of cuts. I went with the balanced budget for decades. This was the last chance. It is done. You want companies to have to pay, then we will pay more for products. And definitely we will live off of foreign people. The Asians are slowly weening themselves from us. The Chinese are building a world class military and have resolve about it. We are graduating not the best but "qualified" people as our best and they are laughing at us. Those cuts and pay/benefit/retiree reductions are needed at every level. Be a patriot. Lets take the hit.
I've been explaining exactly how to not only balance the budget, but how to create a surplus, ever since coming to this forum.
Plenty of people talk about cuts and balanced budgets, but never give any specifics. I have given very precise specifics to a path where we could actually have a balanced budget AND lower tax rates for EVERYONE.
Many, many, many times. More than any other subject.
