Someone do tell us what you would do.

Tell us how you would run for office and then lead the charge yourself.

Then after you post that you couldn't do anything you should tell us the worth of threads like this.

We are in a no-win situation, and the Government knows it. They’ve done the math, and only way to deter an economic collapse is to grow our way out, and why they keep stimulating and buying time….Neither side is willing to have it happen during their time, and why we are here….

Even implementing austerity measures would probably be terrible. We definitely have to grow out of it. The debt won't go down and sure as shite won't ever get paid down. If we can mitigate deficits relative to GDP because of accelerated growth that's probably the way. But not an easy task.

Trump absolutely loves spending money

I voted for Trump 3 times and I wish this weren't the case, but it is. His ego and approval rating outweigh his fiscal conservatism. My only solace is that any Dem would be spending far more on some pretty nefarious shite.

It doesn’t, though we don’t want them all to come to the same side of the isle or it could tip over.

There was a year or two with a surplus but it had nothing to do with reducing spending, we just had a revenue spike from the dot com boom.

The lawyer Powell doesn’t know he is complicit. Lawyers don’t understand numbers why he is in charge of the fed is beyond understanding he knows nothing about the economy or data or numbers. He doesn’t even know about the dems he is doing on the fed or the over runs.

Do we really need to spend a trillion on defense every year?

Gingrich was a true conservative. Gingrich allowed 2 Government shutdowns, but overall he still worked good with Clinton.

He did impeach Clinton, but he deserved that
