You’re misunderstanding several things.
I’m talking about Social Security and Medicare entitlements, the ones given to older people. It’s those entitlements that ONLY younger people can pay into. And that is one reason why modern countries’ governments want to bring in immigrants. Illegals’ are likely not collecting on those entitlements for the elderly, just plenty of others that they shouldn’t be allowed to.
Trump has said he doesn’t want to reform Social Security or Medicare, so we’re stuck with them and finding a way to fund them. An increased birth rate is what I’m suggesting, not more immigration. We need our more traditional values back to encourage a higher birth rate. That’s what made our country successful and a low birth rate is what kills off modern countries and encourages an immigrant invasion. Just look to Europe to see our near-future in advance.
There are plenty of wealthy or well-off, educated, progressive young people who are CHOOSING not to have children. You can’t blame it all on people not having money. It’s a question of values.
I didn’t say any Republican can balance the budget, I said any Republican would cut waste and abuse if they can find it. Trump has no plan to balance the budget and I don’t know if any Republican does. I haven’t heard it discussed much lately. Absolutely both parties are at fault for blowing up the budget. But Trump hasn’t talked about any significant cuts. He wants to spend more on the military and not reform Medicare or Social Security. I haven’t heard him or anyone say where his tax plan creates a balanced budget. He’s hoping that the economy grows enough to bring in enough revenue at his lower tax rate, but that’s what Republicans have been promising forever and it never seems to materialize. You can’t just hope for more revenue. Republicans have to man up and make CUTS to the budget. The sequester has been the best cut we’ve ever had and many Republicans have worked tirelessly to repeal the sequester.
I have no information related to the labeling of meat, but like with any of these trade deal issues, I can’t think of a lower priority on my policy agenda list than the labeling of meat.
You are misunderstanding several things. Evidently you are young. You are speaking of Social Security and Medicare s “Entitlkements GIVEN to older people.” Let’s stop right there. The recipients of Social Security have been paying into the Social Security bucket for their ENTIRE working lives AND the EMPLOYER has paid an equal amount into the social security bucket dollar for dollar with the worker. That is NOT an entitlement! That is a return on investment which unfortunately was forced on people but that’s the way it is.. Same with Medicare and medicare recipients continue to pay into Medicare every single month as long as they live. It is a far cry from the FREEBIES which are entitlements and unearned in any way. there is a HUGE difference.
It is very late and I am tired. I will finish this discussion tomorrow. Perhaps you will alter your viewpoint when you have the facts and not a politicians campaign talking points. I would hope so. ‘Til tomorrow.
