No govt funded life support for the NYT.
They never talk about how Democrats plan don’t work because of math
Does anyone take seriously “New York Times” editorials commenting about any Republican plan “not working”?
Ho hum, same old communist lies.
Inaccuracies aside (it’s the NY Slimes, after all), why are these losers so in love with the federal government? Apparently, the cancer that is the federal government is far more important that the little worthless people called private citizens. /s
The Lord only asks for 10%
Anything else is BS
But we are stuck with it.
Sharks wont give up thier bite
Fear! Disaster! Evil! Granny and me over the cliff! Hillary will save us from the dastardly Trump and his lowly minions!
Needless to say the New York Times editorial writers take absolutely no notice that Obama has increased the Federal debt by more that $9 trillion , has printed trillions more and continues to deficit spend. They are diseased Obama acolytes. Their lead economic columnist Paul Krugman is seriously mentally ill and more often than not refuse to use his medications.
If only we all would just shut up and take Paul Krugman’s advice the government could just print and spend us to prosperity ...
FUNYT.

The minute a Republican candidate comes up with a tax plan to save this Countries out of control spending, here comes the editorials telling Americans how these plans will never work!
Any wonder why most (intelligent) Americans don't read the NYT!
Any tax plan must include the elimination of the IRS. The IRS have proven to the American people it is nothing but a force to be used against political enemies and the employees of the IRS are all to happy to encourage and support the intrusion into Americans private lives while eliminating political competition (Tea Party). The IRS must be eliminated, the American people will never trust their government again without first holding those responsible for these violations and subsequent cover-ups in the IRS and the elimination of same!
Well NY Times, whatever you’ve been selling hasn’t ever worked and stinks to high heaven at least since your crack reporter Walter Duranty reported that the Ukraine mass starvation was merely a well meaning Soviet program to help overweight Ukrainians that went a bit too far. You are an evil organization dedicated to the damnation of the human race that deserves a place in one of the lowest levels of Dante’s Hell. Other than that, have a nice day.
The idea that we can rid ourselves of the IRS, a Cruz proposal, seems a bit naive to me. Even with a massive simplification of the tax code there is still a lot of money to collect and it is not going to just flow magically to the government. Records of who paid, who didn't, who paid too little, who paid to much, who was late, who was early for a hundred million returns or so is not a small taks even with that simplified tax code.
Add to that the complexities inherent in running large and varied businesses that involve large investments in product development, research, oil and mineral exploration, depreciating assets and such. Who will judge the accounting practices for these companies? Can we really simplify the business tax rules to the point where these factors are no longer important to either the government or the companies and corporations?
I don't think so at least without a huge reduction in business and corporate taxes. And that is not going to happen.
Did they write against Bernie Sanders’ socialist spending dreams and how the “taxes don’t work” for his claims???
The NY Slimes is run by a bunch of idiots. And that’s being kind.
These people are so rooted in the old systems that any deviation from them seems like a 7.0 earthquake. Talk about afraid of progress. Progressives are scared silly of it and only want the old tried and failed Kensian or Marxian blueprints.
All of these candidates deny fiscal reality. In the next 10 years, revenues will need to increase by 40 percent simply to keep federal spending even,
I would also add that for a successful tax plan, the people have to be honest and trust the government. It takes a long time to rebuild those.
Former Republican Rep. Bill Archer of TX wanted to "...rip the tax code out by its roots." He tried...
We must have missed the NYT’s investigation of the Hillary/Bernie tax plans. Oh...that’s right...they are only promising Free Stuff to every Democrat voting bloc in the country, paid for by “taxing the rich” of course.
The sooner the Times goes broke and the building is sold to the highest bidder, the better it will be for the nation.
