Could double the economy overnight by having a lottery to determine who gets to beat Hillary Clinton to death with a baseball bat.
There is no inflation, and the economy is doing great. What you are suggesting, while perhaps necessary, will choke the economy.
The Republican Party hears you concerns. Please stay on the line, a Representative will be with you shortly.
To support cutting Medicare spending press 1, to support cutting Defense spending press 2. For all other cuts to programs too small to move the needle please stay on the line.
they should be removing any previous "stimulators" ...
Historical inflation rates should be on your mind. The past ten decade...inflation has been mostly under control. Anything between 2 and 3 percent is not that bad. Less than 2 percent....terrific, I admit.
1988 to 1990...I would admit, it’s fairly crappy inflation, and since then, it’s been what I’d call under control.
1979 to 1981...nearing 10 to 13 percent, and needed massive adjustment.
On the list of things that I’d like for the federal government to go and fix? I’d rate it near #700 on my list. I’d rather they go after social security and take corrective actions on it....or resolve the stupid illegal migrate problem in the US.
Hah Ha. Both parties and all politicians have said for decades the debt is a problem. They all know, including Trump. Congress presents budgets by order of the Constitution, yet hasn’t presented a budget in years. Everything is done continuing resolutions.
There will be nothing done beyond window dressing. If you tell congress they have to pay down the debt the only thing they will do is raise taxes, and still not pay down the debt.
The Graham-Ruddman bill “solved” the debt problem decades ago, look it up.
HUH?
Have you examined any stats for the last three years?
Where is this high inflation?
Since you have nothing to moan about, just invent something.
We haven’t had a good gold bug thread in a while. Here was the last one:

Get on it, folks!
Why would you change anything? I think the President is doing fantastic. Shut up!!
And Trump and Congress seem hell-bent on running it higher as fast as they can. So not gonna happen.
Does a $1/4 quadrillion in federal debt raise a flag in where to start?
You can’t pay down the debt when you are adding more to it.
You say this right after the Fed raises interest rates and “promises” at least 2 more this year....
We need to lower marginal rates which will increase federal revenue and also stimulate economic growth.
