re: #205 palomino

Here’s how a govt run by adults does it. The UK has made significant cuts almost across the board in spending (including military and their version of social security). They’ve also raised taxes on everyone making over 75k.

That may sound extreme. And it may create stagnation. But it is the only solution if your goal really is reducing deficits.

But you see the gop’s goal is to use this issue to win elections, not to actually get it done. Some of the TP may really believe in this rhetoric, but they will quickly be drowned out in Congress by the gop establishment.

heh. I once more lobby for my simple tax. 50% on all income after expenses, with a an alternative default for expenses of 150% of the FPL.
