Trump to Propose $4.8 Trillion Budget With Big Safety-Net Cuts

This showed up in my news app. Just look at this single paragraph, incredible isn't it???

Deficits are going to disappear by 2035. I have high hopes that this kind of calculation will get us out of debt by returning to the balanced budget not seen since Bill Clinton's Presidency.

This alone is a reason for a 2nd term Trump Presidency. Or, at least, as far as Congress goes, the status quo of the current government we have now.

 

So far he has increased the debt by 68%.... because his plan was to cut taxes to hand out to mostly the rich.
It's not repaying itself as he said he would. So now what? The US is simply not going to aid those who need medical care and let them die?

 

I hope your health insurance get slashed or taken away completely, that way we will reach balanced budget much faster.
Don't you think to celebrate reduction of your benefits, is kind of weird, or did I miss sarcasm?

 

No, they're not.

 

Is this satire? Trump ran on eliminating the deficit (like anyone believed it). He just submitted a budget with a trillion in deficit spending.

Is the doublethink THAT strong in some of you?

 

It has come to my attention that the news link in the OP is behind a paywall. Here's another link

We have to find a way to get the deficit under control. By any means necessary. The democrats who reject Trump's budget must explain themselves. Besides, I don't think anyone is going to die.

 

Slash or take away my health insurance? Gee, I hope not! FYI I'm on Medicaid because I live in a state (New York) where we expanded Medicaid and did it without a work requirement. I love blue states.

Anyway, about celebrating a reduction in benefits, I think the idea of shrinking deficits is a priority for me because I don't want the USA to go into default from kicking the can down the road one too many times. Now that may seem weird to you, but I don't think it is. No sarcasm.

 

Bend over middle class and poor you are about to get it rammed up your ***.

 

Deficits still in place by 2035? Oh, really? I was tricked???

 

Well, of course. Now Impotus Bonespurs has to cut safety net benefits because of the budget deficit that the imbecile (with the new and much worse GOP) created with moronic tax cuts.

I told you that this was coming.

 

Well, again, you mean.

 

According to the article, the deficit will go down over time. That alone is worth a second term.

Is being a democrat but wanting a balanced budget doublethink? Well, I can see benefits to both sides. If that makes me a doublethinker I don't see what's wrong. Strong doublethinker here.

 

Oh, OK. So, once again, he creates the problem, and then begs for "credit" when he gets within hailing distance of the status quo ante.

What a great man.

BTW, he claimed that he would eliminate the budget deficit created earlier by Dubya fighting 2 wars on a credit card within a year.

Oops.

 

Congress spends the money not the president. Cutting taxes had no impact on the deficit. We spend too much.

 

Ah, but it won't happen. We're going to have strong economic activity for years, and not a downturn. Life goes on. Downturns and recessions are temporary. There's a natural growth rate that comes from people just going about their lives.

 

No that was obamacare.

 

His new multi TRILLION dollar budget proposal rewards the defense contractors at a time while the pentagon cannot account for the majority of money they currently waste while screwing the middle class and poor.

 

Yawn.. defence contrators are some of America's finest companies.

 

During war they are important . And we never stopped being at war even when the last declared war ended . Ike's military industrial complex

Most of the defense spending go to those corporations . As our infrastructure is grade D.

 

There are things in this country far worse than the military industrial complex and it's the main thing Democrats want to empower. The pharms/health/ insurance i industrial complex.

 

Raise your tax rate to mine and cut spending

 

2035? I don't trust any estimates that outlast the given politician's time in office who presents them. Expecting later administrations will abide by them is just disconnected from reality.

I am resigned to the fact that our country will eventually go bankrupt.

 

Uh, let's not waste billions of tax dollars on that damn wall. We don't need to cut Medicare for the wall.

Besides, Trump said Mexico would pay for his wall. Lol.

 

Do you see deficits getting smaller? No, you don't. They're getting bigger. The deficits in 15 years are going to be insane. Medicare alone will be in the red by hundreds of billions a year. It probably already is, I just don't feel like looking it up. Defense spending will be just as obscene as it is now.
