Pulling the country out of the second biggest financial disaster we`ve ever experienced was not the time to talk deficit. We were losing 745,000 jobs a month and the DOW was 8,000. Priorities!
Blame Ronald Reagan for deregulation, but not what Goldman Sachs, the Federal National Mortgage Association, the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, the FHA, the Federal Reserve Board, AIG, Countrywide, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, etc., to play around with LIBOR or CDOs or subprime loans and derivatives and hookers and every other damned thing that got bailed out by my tax money and the johns of said organizations got rewarded... did!
But then Obama and that republican John McCain crossed the aisles wink-wink! To rescue us all!
I'd chalk that down for about a trillion squandered. Where did Obama squander the other 9 trillion?

Oh yeah.
Like all the money Trump gave our good buddies Iran, China and North Korea?
As to your bloated carcass comment about your President of the United States Donald J Trump...

Waa! Not My Pwesident! Waa!
Yeah, I figured Trump's "bloated carcass" would trigger someone. Trumpies. Such delicate little snowflakes.
Its both spending and revenue but mostly a reduction in taxes going back to 2000, we had a balanced budget until there were multiple tax cuts under Bush that stayed with us for the last 19 years. Some have tries to increase taxes over the years but its met with the usual resistance. We should not be increasing spending unless we increase the tax rate, instead we came up with yet another tax cut in 2017, senseless.
Woe be it to me to explain to you how taking money from your children and grandchildren for "chedda now!" in "mine pockets" may not be a great idea.
But maybe someday you will read something that hits homes.
You're the one taking money from others children and grandchildren and you don't spend other peoples money wisely. That much is obvious to those who care about the truth.
Never. Those two faced cowards are so full of it the whites of their eyes are brown. Trump doesn't seem to mind when spending goes up even though he said different. But that's okay, he doesn't take crap from anyone.
It really isn't their money in many cases. It was created out of nothing. They did no work to earn it. The only requirement was to know the right people.
That's rich. As if you care about people taking money that isn't theirs.
All it did is blow up the deficit. And guess what brilliant Trump has done? He's started multiple trade wars that are likely going to cause a recession in 2020 or 2021. This next recession could be long and protracted. Trump's brilliance was to give a huge tax cut when it wasn't needed, had 0 effect and blew up the deficit. Now that card can't be used when it is is really needed for the looming recession.
Really zero effect? Didn't the rich get a li'l bit richer?
