    Yeah, that isn’t the Democrats fault. That’s the whole problem with Pete’s statement. If the Dems had given a giant tax break for no reason, then he’d have a point.

      He didn’t say it was. His statement was simply that it isn’t something that traditionally democrats run on. The more important bit is that he’s a million percent right that we should be concerned and action needs to be taken. Him and I are close in age and the debt/deficit situation is going to be like a lead weight around the county’s neck for the rest of our lives.

              They sure will. And when they get in power again they'll be making sure to pass another trillion dollar stock buyback tax cut.

                The largest complaint about any Dem progressive program is that it will drive up the deficit. Yeah, sure, literally on its face, he’s not saying it’s the Democrats fault, but it’s a common GOP talking point that Dems just want to spend money for why we should never do anything that might help the common man.

                  And I'll ask this in response to my own post below. When are the people in this country going to figure out that the stock market doesn't do enough for them that a trillion dollar tax cut just to boost it is a bad deal?

                      The country going bankrupt sure as hell won’t help the common man. The deficits don’t matter crowd(and I’m not saying that is necessarily from the left) is as crazy as the supply side economics crowd.

                        that's why the democrats need a realistic plan to pay for their priorities that don't increase the deficit. take that talking point away from the republicans (unfortunately then the GOP will fixate on tax increases that will be required to pay for things, even if they are only for the wealthy so you need to convince the average dumb-*** that they will be better off even if Jeff Bezos is payout out the *** and Apple can't spend billions of dollars a year on stock buybacks)

                          LOL

                          We have both now. And all we get is tweets about how awesome the stock market is. Maybe deficits don't matter since corporations are now in complete control of the country.

                            deficits don't matter for politicians that are in their 70s. They'll be long dead before it's a real problem. Like climate change.

                              I see. Well, they were all warned back in 1989 per the climate thread. So, when they were younger they didn't give a **** either.

                                The county had a lot less debt at that point and we could get away with it. Times have changed and that is no longer the case.
