I am glad Democrats aren’t pushing the spending cuts.
This mess has been caused by tax cuts pushed by Trump and Bush, combined with spending on wars.
Republicans set the stage for this then trick the Democrats to force the economic pain on regular people.
Personally I am glad to see the Democrats not caving.
Republicans can win in 2024. Then they can push their social security and Medicare cuts on normal Americans. They screwed it up. They can do the hard work fixing it.
Any growth now is due to the strength of the economy not any tax cut.
Now is a strong economy? Seriously, now? That is what is going to carry Biden thru the 2024 is a narrative about Biden economics working and a strong economy? Wow.
Taxes go up on the every day person like you and me, the Cuts given to the top x% are permanent, they got the golden goose not us. So you condone the atrocities being committed by Putin against the Ukrainian people, does funding withdrawals include stopping our payments and support for Israel right now too?
Nope.
Not our war, not our backyard.
Not our people.
We weren't attacked.
Our allies weren't attacked.
Our weapons and cash are making sure hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians die a terrible death and millions are permanently relocated outside of Ukraine.
It's a POLICY DISASTER on nearly every measure. We're throwing up to $200 billion to a Totally Corrupt regime, while our cities/people could definitely use a nice infusion of cash. That $200 billion is being used to kill Lots and Lots of Human Beings, while we're running a $1.7 TRILLION deficit this year.
With the passage of omnibus and omnibus and emergency spending on broad band internet (to cover Netflix), why can’t democrats agree to reducing social programs and domestic spending?
This is the only way to slow the debt. The debt keeps increasing while Biden and democrats want to fund two wars and have open borders.
Social programs are the tinest part of the budget.
I can’t wait to pay more taxes so I can thank a democrat.
You’ll pay more taxes so that CEOs can make their yacht payments courtesy Trump and the republicans. They had complete control of the government when the Grand Giveaway was passed.
***You*** were excluded from the largesse beginning in 2025, when Trump planned to leave office.
Taxes aren’t sufficient to pay down the National Debt right now. If you cut them, how will you accomplish that goal?
