RE “Who knew it was that easy? So let’s see if I follow the vice president’s thinking: The school laid off these teachers because “there’s no money for them in the city.” That’s true. York City School District is broke. It has a $14 million budget deficit. So instead Washington, D.C., is going to “give you some money” to hire these teachers back.
So, unlike York, Pa., presumably Washington, D.C., has “money for them”? No, not technically. Washington, D.C., is also broke — way broker than York City School District. In fact, the government of the United States is broker than any entity has ever been in the history of the planet. Officially, Washington has to return 15,000,000,000,000 dollars just to get back to having nothing at all. And that 15,000,000,000,000 dollars is a very lowball figure that conveniently ignores another $100 trillion in unfunded liabilities that the government, unlike private businesses, is able to keep off the books.
So how come the Brokest Jurisdiction in History is able to “give you some money” to hire back those teachers that had to be laid off? No problem, says the vice president. We’re going to “ask” people who have “a lot of money” to “pay just a little bit more” in taxes. Where are these people? Evidently, not in York, Pa. But they’re out there somewhere. “

Obama has no economic plan. He has a political plan. He doesnt propose taxes to do anything to the deficit. He is now proposing taxes and related spending that are poll tested to divide voters. You dont see the MSM worried about that.
