Bring on the deficits! We are eligible to collect SS and Medicare in a few years. I will vote for politicians who promise to keep the benefits we paid into for 40 years.
How is all that fundamental change working out for you? The Obama economy has been a disaster for the middle class. The brain surgeons who elected him twice are getting the economy they voted for twice. As usual the brain surgeon democrats are barking up the wrong trees again. If anything, at this point, lower corporate tax rates will give incentives for corporations to keep more and create more jobs that stay in the country.
Who voted for NAFTA? Democrats are mental-midgets in all aspects of the economy. The economy was much better when Reagan left office than before he started. Carter created the Reagan effect just as Obama created the Trump effect. Democrats offer nothing sustainable, accountable or useful to anyone productive. They cater to dysfunctional people and make a business of it.
If you do not like large corporations running the country there is a simple solution, stop patronizing them. But democrats are slaves to wall st in more ways than one and their lip-service is getting really old.
It looks like the house is going pass the senate budget which will increase debt by over 1 Trillion dollars. Following passage of this budget they are trying to ram through tax cuts. How are we going through pay for all of this?
It has been proven corporate tax cuts don't trickle down to the workers. I'm tired of watching interviews from the GOP touting wage increase for workers. Corporations have never been more flush with cash than they are now and wages are stagnant.
On the flip side Dems never want to cut anything, and republicans seem to only want to cut those in need.
How about leaving the corporate rate where it is and actually make companies pay because most of them don't pay anywhere near the rate. Let's close the loopholes. Let's stop fighting wars in every crevice of the world and bring our troops home. What happened to an infrastructure bill?
I am so pissed off right now. Trump touted himself as a deal maker and he hasn't made one freaking deal. He won't sit down for two seconds to learn the intricacies of one policy he wants to put forth. We have to get this deficit under control and neither side wants to do it.
Warren Buffet pays very little in taxes, (despite what he tells everyone), he has hundreds of thousands of employees.
I bet those employees are thankful to be working..
And you supported the Freedom Caucus when they attempted to block anything that added to the debt without corresponding cuts in spending during the last administration. Yet you say nothing about their supporting this massive run up.
I wonder why?
Fiscal conservatism is a myth. It's all politics and nothing more. This budget proves it.
"And you supported the Freedom Caucus"
Are you making a claim?
If so, on what?
You definatley did NOT consult me on where I stood on ANY issue.
That's your absurd assumption. Because the progressive left/right is the gathering of mundanes who do as they are told doesn't mean conservatives are. Not that you care about the truth.

Why would I need to read much about Romneycare to know that government should not be involved in the healthcare business since it's already been proven costs go up and efficiciency goes down when they get involved. And what do you know I was proven correct, yet again. When will you LEARN?

Look what they fell for. The House Freedom Caucus is willing to give its much-needed votes in support of the Senate GOP’s budget — but first Speaker Paul Ryan must commit to a floor vote on tax reform far sooner than currently planned.
The budget could see a floor vote as soon as next week. In exchange for their votes, the Freedom Caucus wants a promise that GOP tax writers will hold their first committee markup the following week, with a House floor vote on the tax bill in the second week of November.
A promise that the freedom caucas believes the progressive right will keep? lol
