I honestly wish they would pass it.
It would punish Trump voters for their ignorance, his base would die off, and the GOP would be blamed for it.

So basically, you don't care how many people it hurts as long as it leads to the outcome you want.

K.


Frankly, isn't that the Trump/Ryan/McConnell approach, basically?



Well according to some, Obamacare was going to hurt alot of people too. I guess it just depends on whom you want to hurt.

According to some O-care needed to be fixed to help those being hurt. Wasn't that the mantra on the Right? Why do we have to choose among the victims?


Because we can't afford to make it work well for everyone?



Ahhhh...but we can.

(Checks and balances....wait for it....).

Seriously....wait for it.

They won't be able to pass it. No worries.


They will pass it but...before it's passed...it'll be altered....to include your comments/wishes/mine....and others....it won't be perfect....just better.

"THIS" (the current proposal) is nothing more than a starting point.

Ver. 1.

There's another 12 versions before it goes to vote.

(Anyone that doesn't "get" that....ain't been reading the funny papers very long).


They will never be able to make everyone happy though.

We're 5% of the global population, yet 24% of global GDP.

Yeah, I think we could swing it.


(Not if we continue being the world's police/balance sheet/etc.).

Sumpin needs to change.

With debt of 20 trillion (published.....150 trillion unpublished) we can't be the world's anything anymore....yet...we're the world's "everything".

I think it's time we focused on us....like the rest of the world does....for themselves.

You wanna pay that bill?

I'd like to pay for education/roads/bridges/investment.....in OUR country.....(for a while anyway).

Yeah?

Why not, so many other countries have.


Because they don't spend so much on other things like we do... most likely.


Personally i wish someone would just give me the budget and i could probably fix the whole thing in a month.



Your wish is my command:

https://www.nationalpriorities.org/analysis/2015/presidents-2016-budget-in-pictures/

https://www.nationalpriorities.org/budget-basics/federal-budget-101/spending/

(I will presume that now....you will provide us all....your solution).

You have until 04/16/17.

(I'll expect a full breakdown).

So are you saying that when you say, "I honestly.." you were being dishonest?


The irony is what lends the statement its actual meaning.
Dishonesty involves deliberate deceit.

It's not my fault if you don't get it.

On the other hand, this is pretty much the reaction you can expect on a forum where the whole point is personal attack, especially where it involves some form of indignation.
