Deficits only seem to matter when there is a democrat in office.

You're way too stupidly hyper-partisan to admit the simple truth that BOTH political parties have misappropriated Keynes. Politicians on both sides have taken Keynesian theory as license to run deficits in good years AND bad. Which is not what he prescribed.

By the way, even leaving tax rates unchanged can retard economic growth. Look up "fiscal drag". Over time, under a progressive rate system taxpayers will be pushed into higher and higher brackets. The AMT is a prime example of this phenomenon.

He's licking his chops. Maybe he'll use one of his lifelines and ask CaptainMidnight to show up, so we can have a real discussion.

I think he’s licking his own balls. Like dogs do. And hookers won’t. Here’s a song to describe SnitchyVI:

It works by gradually cutting all expense across the board. Not just military but all expenses. We need to maintain the Dollar as the global currency and that will be impossible with this huge debt.

Or do like Putin and get a cyber team do get other countries to elect folks that are friendly to you! the cost Putin spent on our election to get the results he wanted were peanuts!

In fact it stayed about the same.

Now make your argument that tax cuts increase tax revenue.

I have tried to give you data that the increase with the tax cuts was not nearly as much as when we had tax increases.

That did not happen in the ten year span of the next century when we had a tax cut.

It about doubled after the tax cut. Now make your argument that tax cuts add to the deficit.

And I showed you where a tax increase did double tax revenues...

We can do these numbers forever.

Under your theory a reduction of the tax rate to 1% would increase revenues.

Look Bud , go read the Laffer Curve.

Tax rate to high ..reduction in revenue

Tax rate to low...reduction in revenue.

entitlement spending can be in both categories.

But what entitlement spending is mandatory?? NONE. Cause none are guaranteed rights, unlike Defense spending is.

mandatory spending is basically SS & fica (medicare/medicaid) for example that are collected by taxes, so its fixed with the amount received.

some of the mandatory spending is dodgy, so I don't know how they decide other things are considered mandatory spending.
