So what? It's not about how much tax you pay, its about how much you get to keep. Living on $40,000 a year is a lot different than $300,000 a year. One percent more tax won't be noticed. We need to reduce the debt or the dollar won't be worth anything. DO YOU COMPREHEND THAT? THE DOLLAR WON'T BE WON'T BE WORTH ANYTHING UNLESS WE STOP BORROWING.
Is that what you got out of my post? Read it again.Hey... seriously do you really agree with just a few examples of these projects FUNDED with your tax dollars?
- $1.5 million to “advance diversity equity and inclusion in Serbia’s workplaces and business communities”
- $70,000 for production of a “DEI musical” in Ireland
- $2.5 million for electric vehicles for Vietnam
- $47,000 for a “transgender opera” in Colombia
- $32,000 for a “transgender comic book” in Peru
- $2 million for sex changes and “LGBT activism” in Guatemala
- $6 million to fund tourism in Egypt
- Hundreds of thousands of dollars for a non-profit linked to designated terrorist organizations — even AFTER an inspector general launched an investigation
- Millions to EcoHealth Alliance — which was involved in research at the Wuhan lab
- “Hundreds of thousands of meals that went to al Qaeda-affiliated fighters in Syria”
- Funding to print “personalized” contraceptives birth control devices in developing countries
- Hundreds of millions of dollars to fund “irrigation canals, farming equipment, and even fertilizer used to support the unprecedented poppy cultivation and heroin production in Afghanistan,” benefiting the Taliban
At USAID, Waste and Abuse Runs Deep
For decades, the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) has been unaccountable to taxpayers as it funnels massive sums of money to thewww.whitehouse.gov
AGAIN YOUR TAX dollars funding terrorists' meals, poppy and heroin production? And that's OK with YOU??
Do you know how tax breaks work?

You have got to be kidding, I am sure you are trying to be honest, but you just can't help but lie about how the Republicans are not spendthrifts and have contributed 50% of the debt...The spendthrift Democrats who have HISTORICALLY been in favor of increasing the national debt with gifts to underserving lazy people are as their breeding fighting the
efforts to reduce Federal spending especially for totally wasteful expenses!
And the general public, MSM and Democrats blame GOP.
BUT when you look at the causes of national debt increase, while it generally increases under a Republican president, the cause is the legislation that a Democrat Congress passes
that takes place then under a GOP president. As a result uninformed people that support Democrats blame GOP for increasing the national debt. BUT who wrote the bills in the short years before the GOP president took office that CAUSED the massive debt increases?
So today Trump et.al. are recognizing what few if any people are aware of... we've reached the point where the USA economy has to explode dramatically and our government expenses be if possible reduced and at least not INCREASE!
President Joe Biden and the Republican-controlled House of Representatives appear to be on a collision course over raising the statutory limit on the national debt.
House Republicans say they want Biden to accept significant (but unspecified) spending cuts in exchange for raising the limit.
But the president has insisted that raising the limit – which allows the government to continue paying its obligations under the law on time – shouldn’t be a budgetary bargaining chip
5 facts about the U.S. national debt
As concern about federal spending rises among both Democrats and Republicans, here's a primer on the national debt of the United States.www.pewresearch.org
One claim circulating widely on social media, prompted by House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, posits that former President Donald Trump contributed more to the debt than any other in the White House occupant in history.
But that isn’t quite right — and experts say the issue is much more nuanced than a political talking point might let on.
Here are the facts.
CLAIM: Trump “ran up more debt than any other President in American history.”
AP’S ASSESSMENT: That’s incorrect. The debt incurred during the Trump era was very high. But in terms of raw dollars, the total debt rose more under former President Barack Obama, with Trump in second place — though Obama held office for two terms, while Trump served one.
But the debt accumulated under specific presidents isn’t just a result of their own policies —
it reflects decisions made by their predecessors as well as by members of Congress.
“The point is that fiscal policy reflects joint action by Congress and the president,” said David Primo, a University of Rochester professor of political science and business administration. Statements like Jeffries’ imply presidents have sole control over fiscal policy, he noted.
FACT FOCUS: Who’s to blame for the national debt? It’s more complicated than one culprit

In conclusion then... Democrats leave a mess in Congress that GOP has to clean up and in doing so acting as parents... have to pay the bills!
Really? The GOP was in control of the House of Represenatives for two years, and you claim they were just dupes of the Democrats. Really, try befuddling someone else with yer bullshit where it works cause it ain;t here.The judges stopped a lot of spending cuts. Ask them why.

Well I’m sure you are truly uninformed about this. There are more people retiring than people who are working. Meaning the SS/Medicare funds will have more $$ and fewer people paying in. That is a fact. There will be fewer people working and more people retiring. Simple fact folks!
