You beat me. I was just going to post this!
(MORE of Obama’s agenda...)
Raise Taxes, Borrow More, and then Apologize.
Sounds like a winner.
The plan is simple.
Go to the ChiCom leadership and Saudi Royal Family and paint a vivid picture of what life will be like for them 30 days after their best customer maxes out their credit card.
With that gun to their head they will have no choice but to sign on to the Big Lie and stumble on.
Confiscation of all private property and bank/investment accounts ought to solve all the federal government’s fiscal difficulties.
Freep-mail me to get on or off my pro-life and Catholic List:
Please ping me to note-worthy Pro-Life or Catholic threads, or other threads of general interest.
How can we demagogue it to get our way?
Wonderful.
Sounds like a winner.
Democrats have been doing it successfully for the past 80 years. Why stop now?
Sign over all government owned land to China? This guy never has a plan and is never at fault.
They want a crisis so they can take control and seize our rights.
Remember the goal of our ‘contemporary Democrats’ had been to march us into a Collective society (even better if it is worldwide).
Keep that in mind and current trend/affairs make a lot more sense that way.
Funny how un-secret the zero’s secrets are.
Run ZERO off and back to Kenya.
Then watch the economy take off. . . . .
Let me just say that I’m against ANY tax increases. Spending decreases must be considered but (of course) are not part of “The Plan”.
That being said, I think any tax increases has to targeted at the 50% of the population who currently pay Jack Squat. We all need to have skin in the game.
“The administrations budget proposal projects revenue to reach 20 percent of gross domestic product by 2022, about 1 percentage point of GDP more than what is projected with no policy change. The administration deserves credit for proposing even that, given the antipathy to any tax increases. But in the end more revenue will be needed.”
Aye, there’s the rub.
Tax revenue NEVER exceeds 20% of GDP.
Try taking more than 20% out of GDP, and people either get more creative in tax avoidance or just stop working outright.
At 20%, Atlas shrugs.
I think we are beyond the point where we can just say “The Democrats did this...”
If we want an honest solution to the problem, if such a thing even exists, we need to fess up to the fact that pubbies spend and go along with increasing the debt limit.
Just NOT AS MUCH as the dims.
Obama and his cronies in Congress don’t seem to understand that we have a spending problem NOT a revenue problem. Liberals always want to tax and then spend more. The economy is already reeling with gas prices continuing to rise thanks to Obama, so adding new taxes will just push us over the edge. Obama won’t rest until the US is in a new Great Depression with half the country standing in government bread lines.
Yeah, what could possibly go wrong?
Now we know why HR347 was made.
It makes it illegal to protest the President over crap like this.
I've been waiting for the dems to make a move in that direction ever since.
Driving the price of fuel up they way they are I think is all part of the plan to seize the mineral wealth from the owners.
