Of course not. Bringing down a nation is expensive..The cronies who help with that demand big bucks. And, then you have to increase the number of dependents on the government dole so that you can always win elections..Maybe that won't be necessary when we get rid of those pesky elections and just announce that 100% of the people support the present regime. Brace yourselves, folks, without unusual resistance, the worst times in the history of America are coming. Watch LE MISERABLE..That will give you an idea of the good and evil we face.
Pelosi said: "Not to worry......Bernie from Butner called me and assured me he'll make it happen."
"All we have to do is send Bernie a blank check drawn on the US Treasury."
I don’t think this is an answerable question. You can look at a hundred years of history...using fifty different countries, and it just can’t fix much of anything.
LOL. Hilarious typo.
Message to the ‘rats: Go to hades ...
"Are you kidding? One measly trillion? More like two trillion."
"Bernie from Butner assured me, and Nancy, that he is gonna make it happen.
I'm personally cutting a blank Treasury check to Bernie."
" Heck, Bernie's got a tried-and-true formula----he can turn trash into trillions."
LLS
Anyone who is actually believes that .gov will cut spending....especially with the dims running the show
is an idiot. Politicians are more addicted to spending
than any heroin/coke/meth addict has EVER been addicted.
No matter how much $$$ they collect it’s NEVER even close to
being enough. It’s high time we returned to a cleaner, purer, simpler time from our past, round up some tar, feathers, torches and some rope and SOLVE AMERICA’S PROBLEM FOR GOOD.
” Heck, Bernie’s got a tried-and-true formula——he can turn trash into trillions.”
Do you mean he can turn trillions of dollars into trash?I’ll believe that.
That’s something this administration’s been very successful with.
This of course makes the most sense.
This of course will never happen.
Here's how to TRY to explain it to one of the low-information voters, if you dare...
There are 425 Billionaires in America today. This is NOT their income, this is their total wealth. Only 10 are above $25B. 390 of them are at $1-4B. Their TOTAL wealth is under a trillion (about $770 B). IF you take EVERY penny from all 425, you don't cover this increase... and you have no more billionaires... and NEXT year, you have the same exact shortfall, with no more billionaires to plunder.
Or, you could tax the 70 million who pay no net taxes today $14,000 each.
Or you could tax every working American $7,000 more each.
Any way you put it, that Trillion is going to cause a LOT of pain to America and Americans and American business.
Which seems to be what they want.
“Former Sen. Kent Conrad (D-N.D.), a longtime chairman of the Senate Budget Committee, argues the federal government loses $1.2 trillion a year because of various tax breaks, a large pool for lawmakers to draw from to reduce the deficit.”
Kent, you are a lying sack!
If the standard deduction was reduced, those paying no taxes would become taxpayers. The amount of revenue generated by reducing the standard deduction would be considerable
Okay, how about this. A new 5% bracket for the 47% that currently don’t pay federal income tax.
LOL——yeah-—the Obamatons are just mini-Madoff’s with a US Treasury checkbook. ROTFLOL.
Amen....... those who don’t pay are the largest potential source.
The tax is coming, a different tax, a trickle down tax called Cap and Trade. The energy producers pay the tax, raise their prices and it l trickles down to all consumers. It is still progressive in the sense that those who consume most pay most.
The Eurocrats know they cannot raise the income tax rates that are used to purchase votes. They must find another way, a subterfuge, a hidden tax.
