Wait a second. What happened to the trillion dollar deficit we are supposed to have been running since 2008? I think i-node said "as far as the eye can see" and later said it would be a decade or more.
Not that $600 billion is chump change. But it isn't a trillion. Now as we have learned, well at least those of us who are capable of learning, from "the laboratories of democracy", i.e. the states, when you cut taxes, you increase deficits. And, far from being an economic stimulus, it often results in under-performing economies. This has been tried several times in Wisconsin, Louisiana, Kansas and Oklahoma. Same results, every time.
We have also seen it on the federal level. At Republican insistence, we have had several tax cuts with no resulting increase in economic activity. Despite that, our deficit has decreased from where it was when Bush the Lesser left office. By a lot. It could have been better though if we hadn't of sabotaged our economy with Republican policies.
So why not STFU about the economy? You and your buddies have promoted policies that have been proven failures every time they have been tried. To have some of your damaging policies implemented and then complain about the economy smacks of, well several mortal sins.
But you have no shame, do you Tenchu? You can only troll. |
