That sounds like a Trumpification, "he started it" and "I'll do this when she does that". I prefer to see it as me setting MY tone, the way that feels right to me - and let others do whatever the hell they want. Letting others turn me into a mean SOB makes me a wienie. We are responsible for our own behaviors and cannot blame them on someone else, no matter how badly they act.

Besides, treating each other with respect, doesn't mean agreeing with everything, or not calling out each others lunacy. It really only means not taking things personally - even when someone intends them that way. Know watta mean?

O.K. The written language I (we) use here can be very foul to say the least . I will try to speak to those I disagree with ( progressives ) like we are in a public court house .
It's worth a shot ..

I beg your polite, considered response to the following suggestions:

1. During World War II, Americans working double shifts and weekends bought “War Bonds”. At peace, they cashed in their bonds for cars and homes, finally getting the prosperity that enough government spending could have given them a decade earlier, when Hitler’s spending gave Germans prosperity and made him popular and powerful.
2. Our GDP grows approximately $2 for each Congressional $1 spent again and again until either taxed, saved, or exported. Our Debt/GDP ratio dropped from 120% in 1944 to 30% during 35 prosperous years due to moderate inflation and heavy spending on veteran housing and education, the Marshall Plan, nuclear energy, the Korean War, Cold War rearmament, the Interstate Highway, the Man-on-the-Moon, and the Vietnam War.
3. Nobody would refuse a salary boost to avoid a tax hike but, to avoid a tax hike, this Congress refuses to boost our infrastructure! In our past, Congressional spending gave us national parks, dams, rural electrification, transistors, computers, the internet, jet planes, rocket ships, satellites, solar energy, LCD, the mouse, touch-screens, SIRI, search algorithms, GPS, genomics, nanotechnology, and the greatest pharmaceutical industry!
4. About 85% of Congress’ spending becomes cash for our tax payments. We save about 5% of it and spend the rest on imports. More deficit spending by Congress would give taxpayers more after-tax savings and more money to spend on Asian bargains.
5. Unless a trade surplus will always finance our annual net savings, members of Congress seeking a “balanced-budget” law are like fools commanding the tides to ebb!
6. Congress’ spending should be limited only by the onset of harmful inflation when it is controlled by moderate long-term interest rates and by adequate progressive taxes on discretionary incomes, financial transactions, and large estates. More spending would increase inflation; less spending would increase deflation and unemployment.
7. The Fed’s purchase of US debt cuts debt interest rates by reducing the supply. It also effectively reduces the debt and debt interest expense because the Fed gets the interest and principal at maturity and returns 94% of its annual profit to the Treasury.
8. If the interest rate on our federal debt is less than our GDP growth rate, the debt can grow indefinitely and safely since the Debt/GDP ratio will remain or descend well below 100%. (Check the math: http://www.levyinstitute.org/publications/?docid=1379.)
9. Foreign exporters will either accept our dollars and bonds or stop selling us goods. The US dollar’s reserve currency status favors US consumers, traders, etc., and requires that we maintain a large national debt, much of it held by foreign nations.
10. Increased output for the same input is anti-inflationary so inflation is not increased when Congress hires the unemployed to gain infrastructure and productivity. The goods that the unemployed now get with stamps would instead be bought with their salaries, ending the humiliations of the idle poor and the resentments of the working poor.
Excessive unemployment is due only to Congress’ refusal to build infrastructure.

Outta my league Marv. , your attempt to bait me in fails but I'm sure you will try again .. You like to project your intellect and like most who do this it shows a lack of character and misjudgement on your part .. Have a great day ..
