Actually you can. See QE.

However one can also increase the take in or decrease the pay out as well.

Some combination of the three will occur.

It's not a real policy to object to other policies. That's the biggest fault of conservatives: they don't have any policies other than deconstructing progressive policies. That's why nobody votes for them.

Except for the 60,932,152 people in the last national election and enough to take the House at mid-terms. Yep, that's nobody. I anticipate a lot more 'nobodies' voting for Republicans in the future.

No pendulum but simply complex realities of XXI century world dictate that we have to be unified as a nation.
There is no going back in time to loose federation of states, that idea failed before and would fail again.

Yes. Populist agenda like limiting immigration through border fence or less regulation is catchy yet doesn't provide any answers to any problems that we are facing. Republicans will keep on losing election after election.

You shouldn't even bother voting since you're so sure we'll lose every election.

No, I am voting precisely so there are no morons building a border fence while gladly employing illegals to cut their grass.

The Republican Party is a party of failure simply because it lacks direction, a constructive political program and associates itself with shameless populists and religious nut jobs who dream of imposing a Christian version of Sharia Law in the US.
