crickets from the right

According to The Wall Street Journal, in the three months before Melania moved to Washington, she cost us over $675,000 in military flights alone. Could you even imagine if Obama had been living in the White House and his wife and children decided to live elsewhere? Conservatives’ minds would have exploded. While those of us on the Left kept pointing out how much these separate living arrangements cost us, it was nothing to them – $1 Million per day, for 90 days, that the most recent Mrs. Trump didn’t live with her husband. With these costs added, Melania surpassed Michelle’s eight-year solo expenses in just three months.

Melania Cost Taxpayers More In Three Months Than Michelle Did In Eight Years

Did you see the increased spending they just passed? The right can't even pretend to be fiscally responsible anymore.

And you actually believe that any of our Representatives are or ever have been fiscally responsible?

You did it first...

No, you did it...

No. It was you...

No. You...

Not as long as people keep voting for them. We need to vote our all the republicans. If the dems ad to the debt, then we vote them out. Politicians need to know their time is short if they overspend.

Good luck getting rid of them, short of passing away.

There needs to be a 2-term limit and no lobbying allowed.

Lobying=legal bribery? Wtf? Who decided that was ok?

NM, I know who did, It was a Republican Congress when Carter was president, and then another one during Reagan's 2nd term. He (Carter) vetoed the bill, then they overrode him.

They should all pay reparations from that Congress forward.

Pass a Balanced Budget Amendment to the Constitution.
It would be a lot easier than expecting the voters to get rid of the politicians.

Let's talk about the $500 million a day that we have to pay to take care of all of the illegals Democrats brought here. It costs America over $162,000,000,000.00/yr to take care of all of the immigrants that politicians have brought to this country illegally. Nevermind all of the refugees they've been pumping into this country. George Soros could pay for the extra expense of Melania staying in her home in New York by looking through his couch cushions.

Now Mudwhistle, you need to know that some of us do remember just how the Obama girls were slammed for buying dresses paid for by the US.. I went to go find it and to my surprise you were in it..

You seem to be very upset that we paid for their dresses...Come on now , why are you not concerned with what Melania is spending?

Outrageous: Sasha And Malia Obama Wear $20,000 Dresses To State Dinner Paid For By You, The Taxpayer

If we weren't in debt to the tune of $19.5 trillion it wouldn't be an issue. However, Obama lives beyond his means and tells us all to deal with it.
Ah, I see. So if we're in debt to 10.6 Trillion......then the president, his wife and daughter can wear whatever they want to a state dinner?They can do that now, it's a free country.

~

But we are also free to point out the absolute hipocracy of this. Before he took office he said Bush Spending was reckless answer un-American.

Nuff said

~

How is it 'hypocrisy' to go to a state dinner if we have a national debt?

And still nothing on your bald faced lie about Obama's '42 million dollar estate in Hawaii'? Just one of those 'fire and forget' lies, then?

Hipocracy to spend like an oil Sheke on clothes you can't afford.

And who says they spent 'like an oil sheke' on clothes they can't afford?

~

You're a veritable fountain of accusations. But not so good on bridging the chasm from your imagination....to the real world.

OBVIOUSLY THE OP SAID SO!!! $20,000 could buy a lot of clothes.

Yuh know......talking to retards is always a challege, but talking to the willfully-ignore puts that to shame.

One aspect of life that I'd have expected to see from Trump and his glamorous wife was dining in D.C.'s plethora of great eateries.

AFAIK, he's not been to any of them, not even to the Inn at Little Washington, which has had a world class kitchen and dining room for twenty or more years; not Metier, which has flawless food, not newer places like Pineapple and Pearls; not Marcel's which is just down the street from him; not the Oval Room or Bombay Club, both of which are across the street from the WH and where many of his staff and the press corps eat lunch daily; not Dabney, which is comfort food at its best, and not Pineapple and Pearls, which is glamorous and over the top in every way.

Where has he eaten? Once at the steakhouse in his own hotel. Okay, sure everyone appreciates a good steak. But does one really need to go out for a steak. Is there a man in the country who cannot cook as fine a steak as can be cooked? I mean really. You need flames, salt, pepper, butter, a skillet, and eight to ten minutes. Anything more than that is optional. Microwave some veggies with salt and pepper or whatever aromatic you like, ditto a baking potato and, boom, a first rate meat and potatoes dinner in twenty minutes tops. But if one insists, one can certainly go to a fine steakhouse and pay $90 for it.

 

[Camp]

or for that figure

$162,000,000,000.00/yr t

Try Googling $162 billion/yr to pay for illegals.

I Googled exactly what you wrote and requested. Showed articles about how much illegals paid in taxes, one of which claimed 162 billion. Darn funny.

WASHINGTON — Immigrants are a net boon to the national economy, having paid $162 billion in taxes last year and providing crucial support for the troubled Social Security system, according to a study scheduled for release today.

Sponsored by an immigration advocacy group and a libertarian think tank that supports loose borders, the report synthesizes about 30 recent studies on the fiscal impact of immigration and offers some original research. It says that high levels of immigration result in a massive transfer of wealth to the United States, and that the influx of young workers will help pay retirement benefits to aging baby boomers.

But although the federal government profits from immigration, cities and states with large foreign-born populations--led by Los Angeles and California--suffer, the report says. That is because immigrants get half of their public services at the local level, while 70 cents of every tax dollar goes to Washington.

The report by the Cato Institute think tank and the National Immigration Forum found that the foreign-born pay a disproportionately low amount of taxes: Immigrants make up more than 9% of the population, but accounted for 8.3% of the taxes paid.

But overall, "all of these findings lead to one inescapable conclusion about the fiscal impact of the new immigrants: They do not cost--they pay," economist Stephen Moore wrote in the report, a copy of which was provided to The Times. "The net fiscal impact is positive."

The report is the latest in a series of high-profile attempts at a cost-benefit analysis of immigration, and comes in a highly charged political atmosphere. There is little consensus--one recent study asserted that immigrants pump an extra $10 billion into the economy each year, but another said they are a $12-billion drag on the nation.

"This is junk science," Dan Stein of the Federation for American Immigration Reform said after reading the latest 28-page study. "Its purpose is to mislead policymakers by perpetuating confusion to produce inertia. . . . It's a piece of propaganda."

Frank Sharry of the National Immigration Forum, the study's co-sponsor, contends that the new analysis is "the immigrant opponent's worst nightmare."

"Five years ago, these folks were saying that immigrants hurt the economy, cause unemployment and drain budgets. We now have the strongest economy in the world, the lowest unemployment in a generation--at the same time we have generous levels of immigration," Sharry said. "They've been proven wrong by the facts. If I were them, I'd be upset, too."

In large part, the new report regurgitates findings of other researchers, often juxtaposing them against one another to make a new point. It estimates that the nation's 25 million legal and illegal immigrants each contribute $20,000 to $80,000 more in taxes than they use in services over their lifetimes, and says that families with naturalized citizens pay about $1,500 more annually in federal taxes than native-born families.

Immigrants Are a Boon to Economy, Study Says

now you need to supply the link showing they cost that much this says they pay that much in taxes?

great.

now what is the cost of ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS??? and why must you on the left keep leaving that oh so important word out of your agenda shit?

oh. agenda shit. my bad.
