    The largest driver of debt is Medicare Medicaid not the DoD

    The driver is mandatory spending, something democrats have promised not to tackle.

    Watch it grow.

    And of course it will only get worse.

    yep, the telco's are moving to foreign outsourcing for both contact centers and IT\Dev

    India will control all our data and Infrastructure in the near future, we will be dependent on them

    this is a national security risk and Trump is doing nothing to stop it

    Exactly. Anyone saying they had some type of big windfall is full of excrement.

    I have been using the H & R tax prep tool, a couple of years ago I was 1099, so I had to document everything, had my financial planner review them, so your accusactions a wee bit invalid.

    I'm sorry to hear that. You can always move.

    My insurance is free through my employer for both myself and my Wife. The co-pays average around 200 bucks a year.

    All three of my kids college didn't cost me---or them---a dime.

    I bought my Wife a SIG P238 .380 ACP semi-automatic pistol for her birthday last month. She bought me the revolver shown in my profile picture for my birthday last January. I also bought two other firearms (Rifles) within the last year (ALL on-line, birthday gifts and rifles) and have several handfuls of other assorted firearms packed in my safe.

    I currently have 6,179 various rounds of ammunition for those firearms, also in my safe.

    I can shoot people that break into my house that are trying to harm me and/or my family.

    How about you?

    *EDIT* I have 6,605 various rounds of ammunition for those firearms, also in my safe. I found 426 rounds of .45 ACP's in a skinny ammo can in my bedroom when I was moving some furniture around to install a modular storage system my Wife made me install.

    Deficit is a deficit. Try to explain it all you want it is still there.

    Why didn't the GOP cut spending when they controlled the WH and congress for two years?

    Why did they not cut spending FIRST and THEN cut taxes (the fiscally responsible thing to do)?

    Why did the GOP explode military spending from $580 billion to proposed $750 billion under Trump, knowing that spending already was a problem?

    Why is the GOP not taking into account the next recession in their rosy deficit predictions to sell the tax cuts?

    Why did Trump fans on here claim (and some still do) that tax cuts pay for themselves?

    Too true, too true.

    But when are we Yanks going to understand that we are being "had" nationally with our privatized healthcare?

    Is there something more important than, for instance, National Health Care that prolongs life-span?

    Then I'd like to know about it ...

    I suppose your taxes were EXACTLY the same as they have been for the last few years, right?

    Here's more...
