You know, old slow Joe is pretty tight with his own money. Your money and mine..., not so much...
The national debt has increased $1.5 TRILLION, from $32 trillion to $33.6 trillion, in the last four months.
Lets get interest rates up around 10% and see how our much interest on the debt is then. Rocket fuel malt liquor. DAMN!
I unreservedly support Donald Trump in 2024. But when he was president, he didn’t veto a single major spending bill. Like Biden and all the rest, Trump didn’t give a damn about the deficit. Spend, spend, spend.
Should we give Trump (and the other presidents) a pass because these spending bills contained good things too? No. That’s where the buck stops. Every president has failed us in this regard.
Perhaps Trump 2.0 will be better, and he try to rein in the spending. We shall see.
House of cards will come crashing down. All those damn politicians will blame everybody else but themselves when the time comes.
Last one to leave turn out the lights. See ya.
Every president hands of debt bombs to the next one lately. R’s and D’s line up to vote for the big spenders regardless.
” which it claimed would close the government’s funding gap.”
Did ANYBODY actually believe that?
Soon enough, they will be talking about real money.
Covid,Globull Warming & the Amish Wars are causing the problems.
If only Kevin was still around to slow the spending an iota. /s
Yesterday an idiot here argued to me “ukrain is only .25% of our GDP!”
There’s no chance of $100 billion now. It obvious self sabotage and Democrats plan to blame the GOP for it when it fails to pass the House.
USA is toast. Regardless of who is in charge.
“Total spending for the year came in at $6.134 trillion”
Hard to wrap my brain around that number.
This is what the GOP is fighting to KEEP!
“The U.S. budget deficit increased 23 percent to $1.7 trillion, an increase of $320 billion, in the year after the Biden administration pushed through the Inflation Reduction Act which it claimed would close the government’s funding gap.”
Biden math.
Biden or some worthless administration official:
“Yes we reduced spending because the original projection was that spending needed to increase by $640B. We cut spending in half and now only require $320B.”
If you study the figures you’re going to find out about $1 trillion of that is for healthcare cost only.
