So, why don't you give the government more money?

The meager GDP is a result of failed policies.......What policies? Well the policies that have made government the rule, instead of the people.
Don't you recall the trillion spent on "shovel ready" jobs that resulted in nothing?

Marv, government does not produce anything other than government jobs and these agencies hinder growth of the economy.

Am I wrong?


The next time you find yourself on an interstate highway, ask yourself how it got there. Then, as punishment for your thoughtlessness, bite your lip until it bleeds.

Have you given up on blaming Obama for the shutdown? It was such fun!

On the sequester, nobody was more opposed to it than I was. Obama was a fool to appoint the Bowles-Simpson BS Comission to Reduce the Deficit during the worst recession in 80 years! I am in favor of spending spending spending spending. Every right wing nut on OPP is opposed to spending spending spending spending.

On Iran, that was Iranian money from the Shah's time pursued by Iran in the Hague Court. This settlement and the exchange of prisoners settles a lot of disagreements and could lead to better relations with our ally in our common fight against ISIS.

If you could come off your anti-Muslim bias, you might see reason.

You do not spend your way out of debt. That is why the debt is there and growing. All.your excuses do nothing to reduce debt.

Actually, you have it right. If the federal budget is balanced, every dollar created by Congressional spending would be captured by the IRS. It is deficit spending that creates dollars that remain in the economy until and if they are taxed again out of existence, which could be slow and seldom.

The dollars that remain in existence are all the gummint's debt whether held as cash, in bank deposits, or in interest-bearing debt instruments, all of it created only by deficit spending.

I have never proposed spending as reducing the debt. Spending is always for infrastructure, one way or another. That's what we need and that's what our grandchildren inherit.

If you want to reduce the outstanding debt, you will have to increase tax rates on the rich, especially estate taxes.

Ready when you are, asshole.
