If the government raised spending, it would have a positive effect. The spending would go to pay salaries and benefits. That in turn would create more consumer demand and more jobs.
WHich is why we've NEVER gotten out of a recession without a burst of federal spending.
It's when most of the wealth gets concentrated in a few hands it starts to stagnate.
Kind of like it is now.
Tom Cole of OK is already breaking ranks.
I told you hard-core fanatics in our GOP this day was coming.
Tom Cole: Who Is the Republican Congressman Making Waves in 'Fiscal Cliff' Negotiations? - Yahoo! News
Obama offered up spending cuts yesterday...Republicans giggled
When is the GOP going to tell us what spending they want to cut?
Romney would only tell us about Big Bird. When are Republicans going to level with Americans?
whats the GOP plan? the only thing Boehner has sad is he is waiting for the presidents plans simply so he can disagree with it.It started out at $672 billion which was the largest tax-increase in United States history. Now it's $1.6 trillion.
What will it be when he gets done with his demands?
And it still doesn't even address his massive annual deficits. $1.6 trillion.
He must cut spending but he refuses to.
The dirty little secret you refuse to face is this is just intended for spending increases, not to pay down the debt.
A total moron could understand that is why Obama wants no debt-ceiling.
Do you understand now Dumb-ass?

Obama offered taxes now, and maybe cuts later, if he felt like it. Cuts that are pinpricks in the overall deficit and debt.
But keep spinning this crap, just like how the spin says the cuts are $800 BILLION but neglects to remind people that this is over 10 years. Its the same crap gas stations pull with the "9/10" of a cent added on to each gallon.
You are the 1%, bripat, not the 99%. And you are not Republican.
Why didn't the measures taken by FDR immediatly end the last great Republican Depression. Because the damage was to great to fix overnight. Because we are in the midst of an economic reset. Many, many factors at work right now.
However, we are seeing growth, slower than we would like, but growth, nonetheless. And that growth will accelerate in the coming years.
so the GOP is basically saying we wont tell you what we want to cut, we're waiting for your plan. and when your plan comes out its wrong regardless but its not our plan? but we dont know what our plan is, but yours is still wrong?Obama offered up spending cuts yesterday...Republicans giggled
What "cuts" where those?
When is the GOP going to tell us what spending they want to cut?
Romney would only tell us about Big Bird. When are Republicans going to level with Americans?
Why should the GOP offer up cuts? Obama has already staked out what he wants. Now it's time for him to layout what he's willing to give up.
No one in the GOP is stupid enough to kick the Obama football.
You are the 1%, bripat, not the 99%. And you are not Republican.
I'm a registered Republican, Fakey, and we aren't discussing me. We're discussing your RINO hero Cole.

so the GOP is basically saying we wont tell you what we want to cut, we're waiting for your plan. and when your plan comes out its wrong regardless but its not our plan? but we dont know what our plan is, but yours is still wrong?
only the GOP can understand that logic.
You have stated elsewhere you are not Republican.
So you lying: either then or now.
We discussing you because you deflected.

Maybe you could build you a time machine and go back to the 50s. Then try talking to your neighbors about your ideas and see what kind of a reaction you get.
which ideas do you think wouldn't get a good reception?
I wish I could build a time machine, go back to 1980, and show all those "Reagan Democrats" who voted for him what the country would look like 32 years later.

again, what are the specific cuts the GOP are requesting? still waiting on their plan.so the GOP is basically saying we wont tell you what we want to cut, we're waiting for your plan. and when your plan comes out its wrong regardless but its not our plan? but we dont know what our plan is, but yours is still wrong?

No, that's the Democrat plan. Thanks for posting it.
The Republicans would probably approve whatever cuts the Dims are willing to make. Of course, we know that won't happen because the Dims aren't willing to cut anything.
again, what are the specific cuts the GOP are requesting? still waiting on their plan.
and Obama and Dems have offered up specific cuts. look at the 2011 debt ceiling debate:

Going Big: Obama Reportedly Seeking $4T Deal, Major Entitlement Cuts, Tax Changes | FDL News Desk
again, what are the specific cuts the GOP are requesting? still waiting on their plan.
They aren't requesting any specific cuts, dolt. They would probably approve any cuts the Dims are willing to make. The controlling factor here is what the Dims are willing to cut, not what the Republicans are willing to cut.
the ball is in their court, no matter how hard they try to pretend it isn't.

Nope. Promised cuts in future growth are not "real cuts." They're bullshit.
so the GOP wants spending cuts, but doesnt know what spending cuts it wants? yeah only wingnuts like you can make logical sense out of that.again, what are the specific cuts the GOP are requesting? still waiting on their plan.

They are in fact cuts. Do nothing and spending increases organically. Population and inflation, alone, get us near 3 percent annual increases.
So cutting back spending designed to keep pace with a growing need is indeed a cut. The need will be less served, and not level or slightly increased, even if spending is higher, nominally.
