Trump will cut taxes again.
After all, when the crisis comes, he’ll probably be long gone. So who cares. MAGA!
So is it to late to buy gold?

It is getting pretty high. Then again, ask yourself: "Is there a reason it would it go down?"

Some will still pretend that the Dems are fiscally responsible b/c they oppose Trump.
Sad fact is that as of this moment, neither party cares about the debt. Each party only pretends to care about it when they want to stop the other party from spending on an issue they don't like.
Uhm, a bit hard to defend the fiscal responsibility of the D’s. My point is the GOP is no better
and maybe worse with their tax cuts on top of reckless spending.
The real reckoning in this nation is gonna come over those issues and not the current crappy we are fighting over.
Agree and disagree.
GOP is as bad on spending. We agree there.
I support tax cuts, though...for an admittedly cynical reason. If we are not going to cut spending at all, then let's just do as much debt as we can. Maybe we will wake up. But, if we don't, we might as well leave as much in my pockets as possible. I can prepare for the collapse. No reason to steal from me. More taxes will just enable more spending, and I see no reason to do that. Once we cut spending, I will agree to tax increases, but I need a show of good faith by our parties first.
To solve the problem both will be needed. Which is why it’s unlikely to be solved before a crises
happens.
We will be remembered as the worst generation that couldn’t step up to the plate.
Your side thinks it can print more money. Which raises the question, why raise taxes?
If Trump appoints someone as chief economic advisor who has an economics degree rather than a music degree, that alone would be reason enough to vote for Trump.
Make sense man instead of political diatribe. Plenty I could say about “your side” but that doesn’t
help solve the problem. Thinking like yours and some of your compadres on the other side is why we are in this mess.
Are you saying you want to avoid political diatribe? Should we both do it? Or just me?

Whelp since it’s your time of the month, right now it’s you.
You can remind me when it’s mine.
OK, but just don't accuse me of being unoriginal when I quote your words to make the point.

You can quote them all you want. I will though point out when your analogy is inapplicable.

Politicians care about one thing and one thing only... getting elected and re-elected.
Until polls show that changing retirement entitlements would be a winner... I'm afraid we are stuck.
As to culture wars... I wish they would just go away. I see all that as private matters not public ones.
41 took note and got taken out by the dumbest & greediest Rs. Course Billy the Grifter took bows for
achieving balance.
Party is now being run by the same kind of Buchananite asswipes that took out HW.
Chickens are coming home to roost for not addressing these matters such as the Bowles-Simpson Commission Report (that got tossed in the circular file) recommended.
