"cannot understand"

All libs believe that wealth comes from the government raising taxes and performing magic incantations in the White House basement. They have absolutely no concept of the idea of incentive. To their way of thinking, if the government is short x amount of money, then you tax the bejeesus out of the people to get the money back. That is why economic growth under Republican control is a complete mystery to Dems/libs.

Exactly.

It is undisputed that lowering tax rates can be expected to increase total revenue.

A (government) budget deficit less than 2.5%, relative to GDP, is small potatoes

I fully agree!!!

Take care Waspman. Relativism is a liberal, slippery slide. Candidate A is much better relative to candidate B

One budget deficit is an oops, even for a conservative. Two consecutive are the hallmark of excursions off the reservation.

Now don't git yer worry wart in an uproar. All things considered like a war on drugs and a war on terror and a war on whatever else makes politicos look good... it's a debt service we can handle with a printing press a damn site easier than Shifty Schwartzie can with his boondogles and bondage bankers!!!

It's ok to get real, once in a while, don'tcha think there FRiend???

Never forget! It's GovernMental types, both elected and hired, prime directive to "look good" no matter what happens!!! Nothing else matters to ANY of these people!!!
