Yes America has been spending more than it makes. That includes you. Unless all of a sudden you're not American.
Clinton balanced the books, or close to it. Bush gave away billions in tax cuts and went on a wild spending spree. Then the poorly regulated banks, fucked everyone playing their game of roulette with other people's money. All the time China has been rising and continues to rise.
Even with that production is good, by sacking lots of people and not bothering what they do. How many more do you think will have to lose their jobs before they realise they've been screwed over? And come looking for the rich fat cats.
But screw them and if 2% fraud food stamps, lets stop food stamps. And regulations, what do big businesses like yours need regulations for?
And studies. Why bother with the Government trying to find out what's happening. They don't need to know that.
Why not privatise more Government funded projects. Roads, would be a great place to start. You drive and go through automatic tolls that deduct from your CC gauged to the car you drive and mileage. Then the Government doesn't bother with that and uses the money saved to reduce the debt. Of course like the private Health Care industry, the new tolls will squeeze you a lot more.
Here's a list of things that could be privatised.
Policing.
Medics.
Fireman.
Street Lighting.
Street Cleaning.
Schools (the poor don't need an education to be unemployed)
Child Welfare.
Please add to the list.
I shudder to think how much you earn if you pay over $1,000,000. What % of your income is that? how much better off are you under the new tax rates than you would be under the same as the Clinton era?
