Republicans are mostly to blame for our debt

[Blues Man]

Now that we are closing out another failed republican president it seems like a good time to bring up debt since repubs will no doubt put there fiscally responsible hats back on for us to laugh at. It's clear big debt started with Reagan, the guy tripled the debt. We almost had it under control under Clinton, then Bush messed that up completely. Then Obama inherited the Bush mess and spent a lot, but deficits generally came down after the mess was fixed. Now Trump inherited a strong economy and still increased debt every single year. Last year pre pandemic he managed a trillion dollar deficit during a strong economy, this year he will set a new record by a lot.

Over and over and over republicans support the same policy of cut taxes, increase military spending, and drastically increase debt. And that is what has happened every time they have done it. Reagan did it, Bush did it, and now Trump did it. And repubs stupidly believe the square peg is going to fit the round hole this time.... or are they all that stupid? Many certainly are, but others clearly love the freebies. Heck better than a freebie, trumpers got their military spending and a tax cut! Government is great!

So for the last 40 years we have gotten more and more government and thanks to repubs it costs tax payers less and less. That is a formula for increasing government if I have ever seen one. So laugh whenever a repub claims to be for fiscal responsibility, their policy has clearly lead the way for more and more debt.

show me in this , your very first post where you said anything ab out the ratio of the debt to GDP.

The UNDERSTATEMENT of the year obviously. Only an idiot would ignore the facts that mass murderer Obama lied to the American people that he would reverse bushs dreconian policys but only expanded on them.

I'm confused. Was Trump the one that wrote this last Covid Relief spending bill?

.

What does that matter?

Between the Covid Relief and Omnibus bill the spending is another approximately 2.2 trillion dollars. My question is whether Trump wrote these budgets or was forced to sign given how Congress has ignored his requests to focus spending On Americans?

.

Trump wanted more.

He wanted more money to go to Americans and to cut much of the additional spending that wasn't deemed essential.

.

He was full of shit. All that additional spending was in his own budget. He was playing games.

Your the one who is full of shit

Pretty much everybody here has seen that the op is indeed full of shit.lol other than getting the part of Reagan right.Lol

No, BOTH parties are guilty, but it was the Democrats who created the Entitlement spending problem, that generates around 70% of the budget and growing over time.

The op is getting his ass handed to him on a platter left and right by everybody embarrassing himself to no end. His bullshit indeed needs to stop,the whole board is laughing at you troll,you need to give it up.

[Billiejeens]

There is no debt outrage because republicans keep cutting taxes. They fuel irresponsible spending.

What do you see as the purpose of taxation?

Taxation should pay for spending. If it goes on the credit card and we get tax cuts that fuels more spending.

Do we agree that in general taxation should simply be to "fund the Government?
(there are some "sin taxes" to discourage behaviors- but that is not the real purpose of taxation)

I think so? It funds government spending. And as long as taxes decrease spending will too.

Income to the Government and Spending by the Government are not tied to each other, unfortunately.

Now - you do know the difference between a reduction in the rate of income tax and a decrease in taxes collected, yes?

 

[bripat9643]

What programs did Obama say he was willing to cut? . . . . . .

That's right: none.

And trump increased spending and cut taxes.

Freeze social programs spending.

But keep increasing military spending and cutting taxes right?

Military spending keeps you living good as we keep the world at bay. Its not my fault the morons working in the quota driven fields and the quota hired people who develop the modern technology are deficient and cause massive costs for the product. 40 year old designed destroyer Arliegh Burke class boats cost 2 billion dollars to build and should cost half even with current technology..

Yep repubs can never have enough military spending . Just put it on the credit card.

Says the idiot who supports unlimited spending on social programs.

The best you guys seem to have is that Obama let the Bush tax cuts continue during a recession. Well it still started with Bush. Republican tax cuts fuel more spending.

The best you guys seem to have is that Obama let the Bush tax cuts continue during a recession.

Raising taxes hurts the economy?

Republican tax cuts fuel more spending.

Clinton hiked taxes in 1993. He increased spending.

Clinton decreased deficits a lot.

Clinton wiped out the deficit to zero. He balanced the budget, then created a large surplus.

We were on course to pay off the huge debt regan/bush left us. Clinton's plan had the regan/bush national debt paid off by 2010.

The bush boy destroyed it all.

Such delusion.

I don't know why you are okay with it.

History and politics not strong with you is it cum breath?

And yet you can’t deny any of the facts.

Deny what you don't know the facts.

Reagan had to compromise with tippy

Newt is the one who balanced the budget for a few

Fact is that repubs fuel increased spending with tax cuts.

so democrats take no responsibility for their increased spending they just blame republicans for cutting taxes.

got it.

Doesn't it seem to be the rationale that if everyone is to blame then no one is at fault?

Tax payers don’t care about spending because it goes on the credit card and they get tax cuts.

now you're finally getting it

No one cares about the debt.

And it ain't gonna matter before I'm dead so i don't care either

I get it, it’s the point of the OP . Nobody will care till we increase taxes, cuts are making people care less and less.

presidents have increased taxes and still no one cared.

Reagan passed the single largest peacetime tax hike in history and no one cared that he grew the debt

Clinton raised taxes and no one cared that he raised the debt

Bush #1 raised taxes and no one cared that he increased the debt

how can you keep saying that people will care when taxes are raised when they have shown just the opposite?

Deficits decreased under Clinton. Increasing taxes is the only way. You are talking small increases. If taxes increased as much as spending then people would take notice.

no they wouldn't.

because it will never happen.

No politician will ever get elected if he says he's going to increase taxes to cover all spending.

what fantasy land do you call home?

That is the problem. And repubs are worse cause they cut taxes and increase spending.

Biden said he was increasing some taxes and was elected. It’s a start.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/us-policy/2019/02/27/top-tax-rate-has-been-cut-six-times-since-usually-with-democrats-help/

Obama extended the Bush tax cuts and increased spending

Extending the cuts means the rate was not changed. Had they expired rates would have increased.

but you said he should have raised taxes to cover all the spending he initiated he didn't and he still doubled the debt

I’m not saying either party is good, just that repubs are worse. Trump quickly increased Obama deficits.

and Obama doubled the debt. Democrat senators and congress men voted for republican tax cuts too you know

you are saying that it's somehow worse to die from getting strangled than getting shot when you wind up dead either way.

what you want will never happen and no democrat will do it just as no republican will.

so when you buy your ticket back to reality let me know

And trump increased Obama deficits. Bad and worse.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/us-policy/2019/02/27/top-tax-rate-has-been-cut-six-times-since-usually-with-democrats-help/

you need to do some homework

Republicans always start the cuts.

always?

JFK started cutting the top rate of the income tax

We didn’t have a debt problem then.

That's because we had automatic tax increases then.
