We just spent 1.5 Trillion on tax cuts. Trump wants to spend 1.2 on his new nuclear arms race, & he has called for 1.5 trillion in infrastructure spending.
That is 4.2 billion over say ten years. 420 billion a year new spending without a peep on funding.
We are already racing toward a trillion dollar deficit.
We are not mired in a deep recession (yet). Our economy is going OK. Employment is OK. We do not need such an economic shot in the arm.
A drop in the bucket compared to Obamacare.![]()
Nope, wrong again - Obamacare was projected to REDUCE deficit, because of the components in it that PAID for this spending.
Pay attention right-wingers because for all of your Obama hate, that is what FISCALLY RESPONSIBLE GOVERNING looks like.
What are you smoking![]()
FACTS dumbass, FACTS. That's what I'm smoking.
What Would Be the Major Effects of Repealing the ACA?
