You do cherry pick. Yes, things are better when there is a democratic president with a Republican Congress to keep their spending in check. But, it doesn't work when the democratic president has a democratic Congress. Then it is spend, spend, spend, no bar is too high.The entire budget process begins with a WH Request.
I don't "cherry pick", I just look at the data and do the math.
If it offends you, yell at the facts.
How would you go about reducing the debt (leaving aside any debate about any urgency for the nonce)?The debt is rising. $2 trillion or $1.8 trillion it's still debt.

LOL. Spoken like a true cherry picker.How do we determine the truth of what you're asserting?
By establishing that you had some epiphany, around 2008/2009, and became a "centrist"?
I think it would involve data and math.
the strategic reserve was set up so the country could have energy in the event of a world conflict, not an artificially induced gas shortage.Technically it's why it was created. For emergency situations. One will consider $5 gas an economic emergency and I suppose others wouldn't.
In short, it would begin by cutting the deficit.First thing I would do is what Biden said he would do. Raise taxes on those who can most afford it.
He hasn't and he won't.
I would then not sign anything not paid for.
those "who can most afford it" are already paying the vast majority of income taxes. half the country pays zero in income taxes, how about it everyone has some skin in the game?First thing I would do is what Biden said he would do. Raise taxes on those who can most afford it.
He hasn't and he won't.

I think, given the startling accuracy of my portrayal, you should pay some propers.LOL. Spoken like a true cherry picker.
Grifty doesn't pay federal income taxes eitherthose "who can most afford it" are already paying the vast majority of income taxes. half the country pays zero in income taxes, how about it everyone has some skin in the game?

So who is grifty? Biden, Pelosi, Schumer, Kamala, Hunter, Romney? How much did each of them pay in federal income taxes? We know what Trump paid, why don't we know what these clowns paid? Why don't we know what every member of congress paid (and where their income came from)?Grifty doesn't pay federal income taxes either
an artificially created oil shortage is NOT an emergency.Emergency.
those "who can most afford it" are already paying the vast majority of income taxes. half the country pays zero in income taxes, how about it everyone has some skin in the game?
LOL. Grifty is not my hero. Sorry to disappoint you but I do understand that whenever the left loses a debate they immediately start with the name calling and accusations that I am a Trump ass licker.I think, given the startling accuracy of my portrayal, you should pay some propers.
When done, you are free to explain how - given access to the same set of data and the assumption that you are only functionally numerate - you would fear falling victim to cherry picking.
If you are so vulnerable, how can you be sure Grifty never exploited you?
Don't be a moron, rube.So who is grifty? Biden, Pelosi, Schumer, Kamala, Hunter, Romney? How much did each of them pay in federal income taxes? We know what Trump paid, why don't we know what these clowns paid? Why don't we know what every member of congress paid (and where their income came from)?
Describe how this shortage is "artificial".an artificially created oil shortage is NOT an emergency.
Of course....because you're an Independent now.LOL. Grifty is not my hero. Sorry to disappoint you but I do understand that whenever the left loses a debate they immediately start with the name calling and accusations that I am a Trump ass licker.
