The republican plan that includes tax cuts and No real budget cuts in anything but what helps the poor leads to failure.

It is yet again marked by the historical record

It's the main reason I left the GOP. At least Democrats have the balls to tax at a level that comes closer to supporting their spending.

GOP spends every bit as much but don't have to courage to tax for it.

its blather until you prove it

You're an ignorant ass... Go look it up.

I'm right, you're wrong....

then prove it

President Calvin Coolidge: Why his thinking matters today | Calvin Coolidge Memorial Foundation

Under President Coolidge, the economy of the United States enjoyed its greatest period of growth combined with the lowest rate of inflation of the last 100 years. The national debt was reduced by 36%. It was the only period in which that has happened since the Civil War. Federal expenditures were reduced by 35%, per capita income rose 37% and tax rates were reduced by 20%. He established charitable deductions, repealed gift taxes, slashed estate taxes and took one third of the population off the tax roles. Yet tax revenues rose and unemployment dropped from 5.5% to 3.2%. It was a time of unparalleled prosperity.


The Beliefs, Values and Principles of Calvin Coolidge



He espoused the dignity and value of hard work, thrift, modesty and self-reliance.
He had a deep belief in God and in religious freedom.
He believed that “the chief business of the American people was business” and that the people were basically concerned with producing, buying, selling, investing and prospering in the world.
He argued that material wealth was only a means to an end for achieving, “the multiplication of schools, the increase of knowledge, the dissemination of intelligence, the encouragement of science, the broadening of outlook, the expansion of liberties and the widening of culture.”
Above all, he supported tax policies that encouraged investment and he blocked government interference in the natural functioning of the marketplace.
He supported legislation against price-fixing.
He believed that the world would do better if he “did no harm” and by holding back and providing stability, the citizens would know what to expect and not to expect from the Government.
He believed that if the private sector was allowed to take the lead, the possibilities for progress would be boundless.
He argued for the importance of letting Germany pay off its War debts.
He championed the renunciation of war as an instrument of national policy. (Kellog-Briand Pact)
He saw the rights of Colored People as “sacred”, supported civil rights and opposed the then powerful Ku Klux Klan.
He supported shorter workweeks for women and children, equal pay for equal work, a minimum wage, an increase in the number of children’s playgrounds, a reduction in railway fares for workers and their children, improved workplace safety and funding for state hospitals for the mentally ill.
He passed legislation to limit rent increases and appointed a commission to study the idea of maternity leaves.
He supported women’s suffrage and women’s rights.
He ended the corruption that had festered in the previous (Harding) administration.
What Coolidge Said
In the face of today’s problems, his words resonate

If you think taxes are theft then you are not an American

I support taxes. A national consumption tax, excise taxes, non-protectionist tariffs, etc.

The Income Tax is theft. Also, government waste turns taxes into theft.

You have no rebuttal to my argument.

You should pay attention in class.... Seriously, you're out of your leagues toots.

At the risk of greatly oversimplifying a complicated subject, as the economy faltered, the Hoover and Roosevelt administrations embarked on a series of interventionist steps that paralyzed investment and crippled the natural functioning of the marketplace, which, if left to its own devices, might well have pulled the United States out of its economic funk.
The first step was the passage of the Smoot-Hawley Bill and the imposition of tariffs on imported goods launching an international retaliatory tariff war that resulted in the essential financial collapse of Europe. Cut off from international trade and facing shrinking revenues, the United States slid into a period of deflation, in which money became increasingly scarce and increasingly valuable. Business started to contract. To make up for the loss of revenue, the Federal Reserve more than doubled interest rates, making investment capital just that much more expensive. In order to protect the livelihood of workers, the Government took the steps of mandating higher wages at a time when the market wanted wages to go down and then attempted to fix prices at a level that made it increasingly difficult for businesses to make a profit. To make matters worse, it simultaneously raised taxes at a time when neither the people nor businesses could afford the change.

To be sure, a period of freakish weather exacerbated an agricultural crisis. Crops failed and the largest industry in the United States and farmers were imperiled. In an attempt to stem the tide, the Government took steps to regulate farm prices and created a list of subsidies that further tampered with the natural functioning of the farm economy.

At its worst, during the Depression unemployment officially rose to 23% although the real number was probably closer to 30%. In the end, the biggest problem with the economy was deflation caused by the Government’s lack of confidence in the natural functioning of the marketplace and the public’s distrust of the Government’s willingness to allow investors and businesses to make a profit. Significantly, the Depression was neither universal nor inevitable. Some countries as diverse as Japan, New Zealand, Greece, Romania, Chile, Denmark and Finland actually saw their industrial production levels rise.

Btw, most of the Republican presidents were not fiscal conservatives, they were Democrat-lite. Even Reagan lost Ron Paul's endorsement after the Presidency for not being a fiscal purist, and they were friends.

Bush, not a fiscal conservative. Father Bush, also not fiscally responsible, he raised taxes. Nixon was the opposite of Barry Goldwater.
