Now, with tax cuts, where would we find money to keep up caring for the wounded soldiers over the years and years? And where would we find the money to feed all the public school students with the healthier and more expensive nutritious school meals that parents demand? Guess more borrowing from foreign nations despite the accumulative interest rates on the heavy debt remaining unpaid?

Oh, oh, who says that lower taxes boosts the economy??? In this modern age, it's more likely that the tax-refund Big Wigs are interested in boosting is their own personal investment portfolios, or money spend on moving corporations abroad and promote outsourcing. How many original US manufacturing and producing corporations are doing well today? What's left on products that are really made in USA? Whose economy are we boosting? America's or foreign nations'???

By the way, we can't even cheer with pride about or Airline and our motor vehicle industry. And computers and laptops? Boy, how many homes actually maintain US-manufactured ones.
Of course, we do make a lot of money from selling nukes and defense weapons; and Halliburton and the oil industry corporations do bring home a lot of money! Amd that's not surpring when so many young soldiers have to risk their lives for that to happen!

You are being logical. The people seem to think that money grows on trees. It doesn't. You have to pay for whatever you buy, whether its a war or health care, so you better think when you make choices. Even borrowing from foreign countries has a big price--loss of soverignty. That is priceless. The right to control our own destiny as a nation is why we fought the Revolution in the first place, and then World Wars One and Two and the Cold War after that. And now that soverignty has been eroded because we owe China about a trillion dollars and anything we do must not overly offend them, our creditor. This was done to finance tax cuts for billionaires, who did not need it, and the war, which was not needed either. However thats what the people voted for in 2000. Oh wait that was the republicans on the supreme ct. Anyway, it was bad economics that destroyed the USSR and that destroys most empires historically and this country has voted itself into the same position. Thank talk radio and the tax exempt churches that preached for bush.

If you knew anything about real world economics you would know that since Bush's tax cuts went into effect government revenues have increased just like they did after Reagan and Kennedy cut taxes. The increased revenues are more than enough to pay for all the troops anyone wants to send, but you are a Bush hating liberal and reality never gets in the way of your lies, and the last thing I expect you to do is get educated. Knowledge scares your kind, so all you can do is whine and invent more lies.
Now be a good little liberal and ask your masters for a new lie. The one you are telling here is just too easy for any rational person to expose.

No, it's not "ironical". We simply cut all of those commie programs like Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security, public education, etc. to offset the legitimate expenditures of the Federal government established by the US Constitution. Presto: Excess revenues to pay off the national debt.

That's directly from the conservative Bible.
It goes something like this.
Take and rape and steal but before there is nothing left create fake ones and put them on the black market, but lie like a rug and get your frined to lie for you too after you are caught.
