It wasn't a massive tax cut. And every tax increase in the last 30 years has also resulted in increased record revenues. Something your propagandists never tell you. On purpose. Because they know you are that stupid.I'm just wondering if one of the so called conservatives can inform me of what conservatism is with regard to economic policy.
I was under the impression that conservatism is lower taxes, lower government spending, and balanced budgets. I have never seen a conservative do this though. The era of big deficits and big government spending started with Reagan as he was the first president to say screw it just blow up the deficit.
Actually things might have turned out ok because Bill Clinton actually cut government spending and thus had a government surplus. All that was thrown out the window when Bush another so called conservative passed massive tax cuts that did little to spur economic growth along with massive government spending bills turning a surplus to a massive deficit.
Now we have Trump who has done the same as Bush and has enacted a massive tax cut and massive spending bills leading to a massive deficit 10 years into an economic expansion when deficits are supposed to be at their smallest.
I haven't seen any so-called conservatives criticizing any of this so I am just wondering what they believe in and what is conservatism?
The massive tax cut has resulted in the highest level of tax collections in history.
Trump has directed Exec Branch department heads to cut expenses 5%.
Ooooo! A five percent spending cut! Too bad Trump has DOUBLED our deficits to one trillion dollars, eh? I guess that five percent cut will make a "massive" dent in the 100 percent increase in the deficit.
BWA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA!
Christ, you people are getting dumber and dumber. Pretty soon, you will need someone to feed you. I just hope it is something other than the manufactured bullshit you gobble down every day.
