1. He openly proclaims we are not a great nation
2. He compliments Putins leadership and aggression
3. He compares our elections to a third world banana republic where all the results are fixed
4. He refuses to pay taxes

You know the routine.....
The party out of power, tells us the world is coming to an end.
Then those guys tell us all we have to do, is vote for them, and we'll be up to our eye balls in yay.
the reality is that no matter who gets elected we are in for a world of hurt if the debt is ever going to be reduced. The only way to do it is to cut programs, allow no new spending and raise taxes at the same time.
Reducing taxes and fees on business in order to bring them back to the country and keep any more from leaving would be a great help too. The money lost in the revenue from business tax could very well be made up by unemployed returning to work, and along with these people now paying tax, they might no longer be on assistance so thats an additional savings. Think about it, some family gets the equivalent of 60k a year in assistance, dad goes back to work, he pays 4 or 5 k a year in taxes, plus he is no longer getting assistance, that would equate ot 65k a year net gain for the government.
The national debt can be eliminated very easily, we just have to want to do it. Obama does not want to do this, and neither does Hillary, all they want is to pay for healthcare for every firkin Mexican
honestly the debt can not be eliminated easily, it can be eliminated but it is going to take some serious sacrifice from every single american citizen out there. Some may have to see a reduction in their freebies, some are going to see higher taxes. but every day that goes by without something being done to start turning this around, it is only going to become more of problem for everyone.
If I were a liberal I would say Screw it, Im close enough to dying of old age that we can keep going for a another 20 years or so, but Im not a liberal, I dont want to see my children or grand children (should I ever get me some of those) being financially ruined as they pay off something we did or didnt do today.
Its time this passing it on to the next generation crap ends. Ive lived my entire life reaping the rewards that raising the debt ceiling brings, I think its time to suffer a little and pay it back.
What will piss me off is to see that debt ceiling raised, or taxes raised just to cover some new social program.
Lets put the U.S back to work and deal with the debt like responsible adults.
