How do you equate closing tax loopholes with raising taxes? If they increased your income bracket, that's one thing. This is eliminating an unncessary deduction.
And I would much rather pay more, than have women's health funds be stolen.
There are many billions of dollars undoubtedly going to projects we don't need.
Let's start with the biggest of them all--our military.
Can those women use their methods of having a good time and feeling good and avoiding pregnancy manage to protect us from the War on Terror that Obama has declared over? I just wondered because many of the men in the military will have to go if we do what you howl about. Yes, we don't want our military women getting pregnant but those things were avoided for a long time before this year when that became an important part of the Democrat strategy to win votes.
Why do you left leaners continue to say that Republicans want to do away with the women's health funds when there aren't really any things like that in existence.
Why doesn't Congress just lift the bankruptcy exclusion for
student loans....
Oh wait, students aren't bankers.
Dems and Repubs don't a **** about student loans.
Both parties have allowed the bankruptcy exclusion for DECADES.
And the accumulation of interest onto principle.
Now, pretending they care.... what a crock.
YES!!! That is the entire crux of the scam. The banks, the secondary lendors, the collection agencies, the colleges and the government are all in bed together on this forced slavery. Get a student loan, get educated, become a slave when you miss payments because you didn't get a job (as promised.) People in their retirement age are still paying student loans. Low interest rates become 200-300% nighmares after all the fee's and charges are added on. The government can lien their social security payments.
There have been lots of court challenges dealing specificially with revenue increases and where those bills originated.
Its very simple, the Senate is proposing closing loopholes, which raises revenues, but ALL raising revenue bills MUST originate in the House. Thats where the Senate is proposing getting the money from to respend.
It's a technicality--that's why I'm asking. Is closing a loophole legally considered "raising revenue."

You just haven't said anything so far to support you being an idiot--at least not in this thread.

Well its a very specific stupid move by the Democratic Senate, to propose a bill known to be illegal, and the only reason they would do that is because they have no intention of passing any bill, and they just want "votes" from people who dont know any better. Hey, it might sound good, but if its illegal, its bs..
I'm sure it's not the first or last time the Senate try to throw a political football like that.

There is nothing like women's health funds? That's explicitly what's being offered to pay for the interest decrease--the proverbial sacrificing of a virgin to keep the Tax God Norquist pleased.
And Roy, there are billions in the military that can be excised. We're dumping money into programs we don't need or use and will never help with the abstract war on terror. What's a stealth missile-cruise going to do for us against a landlocked nation? I mean, surely such a fiscal conservative such as your self sees the need to cut worthless programs from the military, to slice away at the waste of the defense industry.
Or is the military the only thing in Washington that has their **** together?

Its not a technicality, yes, closing a loophole is considered raising revenues, which is why the Senate is able to spend the money generated.

The Senate wll be doing lots of throwing the football around between now and election day. The issue is, will Democrats stand there and blame the GOP for Democrats wanting to pass illegal bills that are impossible to pass into law? You betcha.. Obamas on a roll with the non stop blame game..

Would you call funding stadiums, spas, climbing walls, and chef prepared food... stupidity? Colleges have become resorts more than learning centers. Kids are on Spring break for four years and we wonder why our productivity sucks? No wonder socialism is so popular with students, who wants to work after that.
