Personal Response So, you agree that money spent by the US Government during the period of 1992 - 2000 is the responsibility of George W. Bush who WASN'T the President from 1992-2000?
Tell you what - let's blame the Spanish-American War on him, too. If we can blame expenditures on him from when he wasn't President, why not wars that occurred before he was born? End of Personal Response |

Dwayne, With your permission, I would make one change to your above post. Your last sentence ought to read: "Effing whiners need to get an effing life." In the future, would you please try to be more careful? Thanks.

It seems like your solution is to do nothing and let things continue as they are. (Correct me if I am wrong please.) I don't think that is a viable alternative. |

If you don't allow tax increases or cuts in the military the only viable cut has to be to entitlements. Everything else in the budget does not amount to much, certainly not enough to fix the deficit. What do you want to cut, AB? |

It works just fine in many countries , and goods and services provided by government run industries , are cheaper for the consumers to purchase , there being no profit motive, only an need to be fiscally neutral from a government budget sense. |

I have a trade deficit with my grocer, my utility company and my landlord (to name a few). The arrangement does not seem to harm any of the people invovled. I have debt in the form of student loans and am looking to go int further debt after I have a decent down payment on a house. My current debt is approximately 81% of my annual income. With a nice house with a small amount of acerage, my debt would easily climb to 500% of my present income. This debt that everyone is clamouring about it, is what percent of the federal government reciept? I think very little needs to be done to reduce the existing debt. I do find strange that deficit spending was the status quo of both parties for so long and now each side has used it against the other. ANOVA reckless spender. |
