Tom, yelling at kids to stay off his lawn during his second birthday party...

 

Actually, I was running a bubble-gum-machine scam against my party-goers.

 

Made almost seventy cents. Last time anyone came to my birthday party...but it was worth it.

It's Trump's fault because he built the pipeline and caused oil prices to fall and Russia became bankrupt and belligerent and the Venezuleans now have nothing to eat but bird droppings and cigarette butts shipped there from Citgo service stations.

Unlike the U.S. they at least still have birds.

What possible !@#$ing point are you trying to make?

 

 

I think he is saying commie Venezuela would be thriving if we hadn't borrowed $20 trillion from them to prop up an ill conceived capitalist system. Or something.

Venezuela's leaders ruined there economy. Hitler almost destroyed Germany.

 

I have empathy for the people of both those countries , I don't blame them for the end result.

 

The U.S. economic system is far from idealistic given the massive debt. It was less then $1T if I remember when Carter left office.

Do you believe that it's our "economic system" that creates a national debt?

I'm saying political decisions creates a national debt

 

I'm cherry-picking here, but you did say this:

 

"The U.S. economic system is far from idealistic given the massive debt. It was less then $1T if I remember when Carter left office."

 

That sounds to me like you're blaming our economic system for the national debt, not political decisions, declaring it to be "far from idealistic (sic)". Could you please clarify that?

Lowering the top marginal rates brought in significantly increased tax revenue under Reagan. The term "trickle down" was coined by detractors of supply side economics, and is a buzz word used by leftists. Your bias is showing. I see you don't refer to JFK's fiscal policy in the same terms, yet he also supported lowering the top marginal rates.

 

I don't know if you're unaware or just biased, but congress controls spending. During the Regan years, congress outspent the windfall tax revenue by approximately two-to-one. It's impossible to spend your way out of debt.

 

And adding "jmo" is not an effective insulator against criticism when saying something ridiculous.

Tax rates under Eisenhower were very high to pay for WWII, the depression , and rebuild Europe and Japan. He was my favorite President of all time. The U.S. economy was booming under him.

 

JFK did dial the tax rate back at the right time.

 

Congress controls spending. Did Reagan veto that spending for 8 years ?

And why exactly was the economy booming under him?

Why don't you enlighten us , I lived thru that time

 

It was mainly due our manufacturing capabilities escaped unscathed from WWII we became the world's major producer of many products. Add to that the returning service men and women along with the euphoria of the depression and the war finally behind us. Mickey Mouse could have been President and the country would have boomed.

 

Living through an era doesn't mean you understand anything about it.

Yes. That's exactly what I'm doing. :rolleyes:

 

Would my post have had more meaning had I said Obama instead of Mickey?

 

Eisenhower was a brilliant General and I believe a very great President , so I disagree with you Chef Jim

So you think that Eisenhower was responsible for the economic boom in the 50's? Please explain, in detail, what policies he set in place that created that boom.

Mickey Mouse is a brilliant businessmouse who has made billions worldwide. Yes he has a squeaky voice but he knows what he is doing.
