We don't have an income deficit but a spending problem. Trump's tax cuts actually increased revenue. BTW, check your amount of "0's". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Debt is a problem. You start on the spending side since that's growing faster than revenues.

T master Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 The spending can't be stopped especially by those that can't balance their own check books be it Republican or Democrat ! We think that if they can vote themselves a raise any time they want that they will not do the same thing with the budget !! Why do we think those politicians that go to school to become lawyers first will be good at their jobs ? Most become lawyers to know how to twist the words in the laws after the Bribers (oh i'm sorry "Lobbyist") do their jobs to push some un needed agenda better known as added Pork to the bills trying to be passed ! Term limits, NO unlimited retirement benefits for politicians, (unless it's the Pres.) would be a great start to cutting out going $$ !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiberius Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 What are bonds paying in interest now? It's like almost nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keepthefaith Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 (edited) 10 year treasury's about .7%, 30 year about 1.4%. Super low and that's helping to keep the cost of funding debt down, but we can't count on rates like this forever. Neither party in Washington is willing to do anything about the mounting debt beyond some trimming around the edges. https://www.treasury.gov/resource-center/data-chart-center/interest-rates/pages/textview.aspx?data=yield Edited September 14, 2020 by keepthefaith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
