“The bill adds +1T to the deficit”
Posted by CoachChappy on 12/21/17 at 6:40 am531
I’m beginning to see the 34d chess moves in real time. Trump and republicans crafted this bill to increase the deficit on purpose. Trump has hinted that the next huge bill will be Entiltement reform. He now has Dims on record being fiscal hawks. Entitlements are a huge chunk of our budget. He’s got them again.

Cuts to foreign aid should be first and foremost. America First.

He's already hinting the U.N. is about to get cut.

I think he'll wait to give him an excuse, BUT...
All these tenhorn countries are OWNED by the same people Trump has been throwing down the gauntlet at...

A tax bill can not add money to the deficit. It just means we are spending too much.

Why can't politics be less shitty so normal common sense people can get into it and stay the way they are?
so much Kabuki theater crap

It is like saying I got a new job that has a certain income stream and I just added to my household debt. That doesn’t make sense. Any family would look at it like they are spending too much.

Foreign aid amounts to about $25B (about.7% of the budget). We can't nickel and dime our way to balanced budgets on the backs of programs that people don't like or don't know or care about. Real cuts will have to be made to popular programs like SS, Medicare, and defense to make a difference.

Couldn't agree more. Glad we already have some bipartisan support on this board for entitlement reform. I'd be willing to cut defense as well.

Right, but you can’t rightly make cuts to those programs while still giving handouts to other countries.

Because the lib/prog filth has to lie in order to convince the sheep to enslave themselves.

If I’m not mistaken, defense spending is about to undergo its first audit in ages. I suspect we will find a way to save some money there as well. I’m 100% on board with having a large military. However, I think it can be done more efficiently. There’s a ton of pork in our defense budget.

I don't like ss and Medicare/Cade so I'm cool with cutting it. I'll be ok giving up my stolen wages

Just remove all of the social experimentation in the military and save a trillion.

How the frick are you planning on cutting a program that is holding OUR money? It isn't a spending program like the others you listed. If anything, they need to replenish it with evwrything they stole out of jt since inception. You libs are something else.
Curious, why didn't you mention cuts to one of the larger programs in the budget. Welfare!

No matter what name you give it to distract from the truth, the bottom line is this bill adds TO the deficit.
I thought Trump was different but he’s the same as all of them. Keep adding more and more debt...some businessman, huh?
Keep in mind the last POTUS to give us a surplus was Democrat Bill Clinton...
But it doesn’t count because he commited adultery, right?? Lolz.

Trump will continue to be a strong tailwind for the economy, but he's going to spend like a mother fricker. Get used to it. Infrastructure bill will be next. Debt will continue to grow.

Actually you are half right, the internet revolution gave us the surplus, but the internet was invented by a democrat, Al Gore!
