Almost $18.5 Trillion in debt.

leftist are openly hostile to the free market and seek to punish those that succeed in it.

I'm not sure that's the case with most of the "leftists", my impression is that the hostility to free markets is based on the belief that those that succeed in them do so as a factor of "unfair" advantages and gaming the system. Which isn't all that far off the mark when one looks at the rampant crony capitalism that is currently taking place, what those on the left miss is that the crony capitalism they hate so much is largely a factor of government power (i.e. favoritism and influence peddling), the prescription of the left on dealing with the problem is to further empower government which is like proposing to cure cancer with more cancer.

IMHO government doesn't need more power to intervene in the economy what it needs is to be limited to powers which allow it to act as an impartial referee and nothing more, let free market competition on a level playing field take care of the rest.

i have no problem with letting capitalism deal with whatever is not cost effective to the public sector.

well thanks for your permission leftard!!

you are welcome; just don't cause too much capital trouble or the deal is off.

how much did the republicans add, last millennium after they mismanaged the massive federal budget surpluses we used to have.

 

[Faun]

I remember being pissed when it hit $100 billion.

Ya know how we try to explain to leftist that this much debt is bad and they don't seem to understand?

And you know how bent outta shape offended they get when they see this image;

I used to think is was b/c a heartless person was making fun of a retarded child.

But then it dawned on me.

They are made b/c they are jealous of the kid making it to potato when they can't.


How do you explain economics to someone that can't count to potato?
You can't

and that explains all their replies to our pleas to not spend more money, not enlarge the government, not pass more useless and redundant laws.

Look at this
U.S. National Debt Clock : Real Time

The debt increases by $10k every second, every single second of everyday. That's $860 million a day.

And the top candidates for the dnc will gleefully increase it. They are getting cheered for their plans to increase the debt.


but potatoes are racist, brown on the outside and white on the inside, so I guess that makes it ok.

Sounds like a ringing endorsement to bring the Clintons back into the White House.

yes, we did have massive federal budget surpluses; even paying for steak and lobster for the least wealthy, is not a problem with massive federal budget surpluses.

I remember when Raygun promised to balance the budget in his first four years...never submitted one balanced budget in eight years. The national debt was tripled instead. Then Shrub daddy doubled it again in only four years. Then Clinton balanced the budget, Shrub Jr.destroyed the balanced budget in his first six months with welfare tax cuts for millionaires, and doubled the national debt again WITH A REPUBLICAN CONGRESS!!!!
Really, you can just fuck off with your bullshit.

 

[EatMorChikin]

if the gop gets in charge, I'll bitch about how little they do.

but you want to bitch at both parties like they have equal say at all times

fucking moron

The GOP was in charge. They had both houses of Congress, and the White House. And what happened?

Every year of Bill Clinton's Administration, the deficit declined. During Bush's Administration, the deficit skyrocketed to the highest in the history of the Universe. Every year of Obama's Administration, the deficit has declined.

So...yeah. Damn right I want to bitch at both parties, fucking moron.

But you just go right ahead and keep drinking the bongwater and making a fool of yourself in public.

Declined my ass! How the fuck did we triple from 6 trillion to 18 if it has declined under Obozo the terrorist?

Didn't they teach you the difference between deficits and debt in WN school, you innumerate jackass?

See post 126.

LMAO

yet again !

 

[edthecynic]

Done after the truly bad days of malaise Carter.

Of course, it was Nixon who created the economic "malaise" so the Right blames Carter.
Bush crashes the economy, so of course, the Right blames Obama.
Anyone see a pattern here?

I'll put my money on RW's not knowing the difference between deficit and debt for a starter ... then digress from there.

they also cannot seem to distinguish the difference, between a common offense, and the common defense. only one is specifically enumerated.

It's the lib/dem/socialistpaths for sure. I long for the days of reagan and bush2 when they reduced the debt and spending.

 

[Ame®icano]

SS has a nearly 3 trillion surplus.

Great, make government can borrow from that surplus and finance other programs.

Oh, wait...

 

[Ame®icano]

Workers paid into SS and Medicare all their working lives, and now the GOP wants to rip workers off so the GOP can give the lazy wealthy more tax breaks.

That's a lie

Of course it's a lie, so just ignore him.
