The national debt is 19.3 trillion dollars. How do we fix it?

[kaz]

Stop voting for GOP Presidents...

They have all increased the deficit since the 1930s

Yep, it's Republicans, not Democrats. You forgot the rim shot

 

[Brain357]

Bring manufacturing back to the U.S. Offer tax incentives, scale back the nazi epa, get the government out of the way, they will come back. In other words, vote the Democrats OUT. This debt has weakened us as a country, and must be fixed.

You should ask Kasich, he has a lot of experience. Or vote for some idiot with a reality tv show.

 

[blackhawk]

We don't it will never be delt with because neither party or more important the American people will not accept that there is no easy simple quick painless answer to the problem.

Got any idea how much the federal government has stolen from us in the "War on Poverty"....which has only given us more of it?

Poverty is caused by disproportionate wages vs. cost.

The best war on poverty is allowing business to take a 1:1 tax credit for employee expenses.

The second best is to raise minimum wage. The base for ALL salaries.

The best war on poverty is allowing business to take a 1:1 tax credit for employee expenses.

I just started a family business. We're going to buy $100,000 in goods and sell them for $110,000.
Our wages are going to be $200,000 a year.

How large is my tax refund?

Why would you receive a tax refund using a tax credit?

You just proved you don't even know what a tax credit is.

You just proved you don't even know what a tax credit is.

Tax credits for businesses are deducted at quarterly filings.

That proves nothing. Define "tax credit."

Because Republicans helped the Chinese move manufacturing jobs to China, we end up with raped and stripped cities like Detroit. It's exactly the same as the GOP blaming the shitty job of helping people after Katrina on Obama. And so many Republicans are stupid enough to believe it.

Yes, the Republican leaders of Detroit sent all those jobs away. Durr.

They helped send jobs away all over the United States. Not just one city.

Liberal Dems have been in charge of Detroit for at least 60 years.
How did Republicans send jobs away from Detroit?

Because the majority of jobs left from 2001 to 2008. Because Republicans gave tax credits to companies that moved jobs to China. Because they sent jobs away from the entire country nitwit. Areas of manufacturing were hit hardest for obvious reasons. Duh!

Why the fuck should I be telling right wingers about there own damn party? How come they don'[ know? Don't they know how to use Google? Dumbfucks.

The federal government has never given tax credits for moving jobs to China. That's Democrat propaganda. You don't even know what a tax credit is.

Once it's established, that will quickly be increased to $3.00/share.

That's fine with me. Fuckers who own stock, only pay 10% taxes on their dividends, while I'm paying 25% of my paycheck.

Quid pro quo, mother-fucker!

For tax purposes, dividends are considered either “qualified” or “nonqualified.” Qualified dividends are:

• Tax-free for those in the 10% and 15% brackets to the extent qualified dividend income remains within those brackets
• Taxed at a 15% rate for those in the 25% up to 35% tax brackets
• Taxed at a 20% rate for higher income taxpayers whose income surpasses the 35% tax bracket

Nonqualified dividends are taxed at the same rates as ordinary income (currently a 39.6% maximum).

while I'm paying 25% of my paycheck.

What's your income?

And I bet you vote GOP, right? Then what's the problem. They used reconcilliation three times under Bush. You can only use it once a year. That means they passed all kinds of damaging legislation in all the years they had total control of the government. It's what Republicans do.

There's no rule that says you can only use it once a year. Bush was in office for 8 years, so according to your reckoning they used 5 less times than they could have.

Almost everything you know is bullshit.

The national debt is 19.3 trillion dollars. How do we fix it?

That's easy. We do the opposite of what Republicans did to create it.

Republicans didn't create it alone, any more than Democrats did.

It's demonstrable to show however that Democratic policies and initiatives are the greatest drivers of that debt. See every public assistance program.

There's absolutely zero evidence Democratic policies will do anything but explode the debt. Republican ones just increase it a little slower, and not sure it would be much slower at that.

Want to actually do something about the debt, get a Libertarian plan. You really won't like it though, you'd have to get off your ass and work.

[Billo_Really]

You must think you will actually be able to retire on social security...you poor, deluded fool.

No, actually, I don't.

I would if the right would stop fucking with it. But they won't, so I don't.

There never has been a bigger assistance program than the Bush Tax Cuts. Created trillions in debt, created no jobs and gave the rich the money to more their companies to China. That's GOP Economic policy.

Going to war without paying for it creates debt. The GOP did that too.

Only tards believe that if you help people out who need help by giving some money for food and clothes thinks that money disappears. It's spent. It's gone forever.

When actually, it helps the economy by buying food and clothes. The tards argument is you can't grow the economy on only welfare. No one has said or even suggested that except other tards. Republicans and tards have no idea what I'm talking about. And that's why GOP economic policy fails.

Republicans tried to stop those programs.

Clinton left a surplus. So what happened to it. First, Bush was given the presidency by the Supreme Court.

Then he used reconcilliation three times? Do you remember for what. Find out what they used it on and that will give you the foundation of today's enormous debt that didn't exist until the GOP got complete power over the government.

Trying to teach Republicans recent history is so hard. It's that determined ignorance. It's a disease.

The budget was headed towards a surplus during the Clinton administration only because of the tech bubble which created a capital gains windfall for the government. That bubble collapsed before the election results had even been decided, so a huge source of government revenue evaporated before Bush was even inaugurated. Bush himself had nothing to do with the disappearance of the "surplus." It all happened under Clinton's watch.

Raise taxes.

Punish people who move money off shore.

Nice try.

Not even close.

You shouldn't copy/paste things you can't even being to understand.

Best way to lower the debt is kick Obama out and keep Hillary or an establishment Republican out of the White House.

Darn Bush! How much did he cut corporate taxes? It must have been a lot, right?

Then they'll just move off shore. All those taxpayers that supported your utopian existence - gone.
