    The Debt And The Trump Agenda

    20 trillion dollars in national debt and President soon to be Trump has set an agenda to cut the corporate tax back to 15-20 %, build a trillion dollar wall on our southern border, cut taxes across the board for all Americans, institute massive infrastructure spending and dedicate another trillion dollars to rebuilding our military.

    Does anybody actually believe that any President and Congress can actually do that without bankrupting America?

    Does anybody here know why America has 13 nuclear powered aircraft carriers while the rest of the world combined has only two? The Chinese have one and the French have one.
    Government is force by definition and corruption by nature. The Bigger the government the greater the force and the greater the corruption.

    The United States government should never ever ever eliminate wasteful spending on various government agencies that do little more than further burden the citizens of this country. We can't ever cut out programs that have run their course or agencies that serve no useful purpose or even do like every corporation on the entire planet must do and work off a budget.

    No, laws passed and regulations created are to be honored and increased into perpetuity.

    True. Reagan would have done even better if the dim congress had not lied when they said they would cut spending. I remember.

    To the right? Probably so.

    I predict that suddenly, for the first time in 8 years, debt will be very important once again to those on the left.

    Debt always matters to me. Always. I am against it. I wrote Bush. I wrote Obama. I will write Trump. PAY-AS-YOU-GO. Otherwise, all we are doing is dumping it on my children's children.

    Democrats aren't seriously going to pretend to care about the national debt now, right?

    Cutting taxes does not generate more revenue.
