You can’t just dismiss the revenue side of the debt. It doesn’t make any economic sense. Revenue is how shit is paid for. If the percentage of GDP is too low, the government borrows more. The GOP’s tax cut is going blow up our deficit. You know that right?Cutting spending is how you pay for things. It's not a revenue problem. It's a spending problem.Yep, let’s cut defense spending and close the corporate tax loopholes and deductions to help pay for it. We have to start somewhere.
Everybody had to tighten their belts in hard times EXCEPT government.
I don't mind if we cut a bunch of defense spending. That's moving in the right direction.
What else can we cut? The Department of Education should be eliminated immediately.
.
No, the govt needs to do without and reduce it's budget by 20 percent in every dept. Problem solved.
