So it sounds like another Panama Papers incident happened. Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross is named in it having ties to Putin oil company.

Every one is responsible for the debt. We keep voting people in who spend like they're getting prepped for a colonoscopy.

But I've also heard that deficits don't matter.

LOL, we've been over this before. In the last 40 years, only Democratic presidents managed to reduce the deficit year over year. Clinton even managed a surplus.

Democrats spend, no question. But they are the only party that realizes that to have an effective government, you need to keep taxes going.

Republicans cut taxes, but they spend like there's no tomorrow. Even more if there is a "war".

So lets not pretend that it's always both parties, equally.

Someone's in for some angry childish tweets! https://www.reuters.com/article/us-...ld-not-be-fired-fox-news-sunday-idUSKBN1D50TR

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. House Speaker Paul Ryan said on Sunday that special counsel Robert Mueller should not be fired or step down, and needs to be allowed to follow his Russia investigation to its end.

“We need to let these career professionals do their jobs, see it through...I don’t think he should be stepping down and I don’t think he should be fired,” Ryan said in an interview on Fox News Sunday.

WASHINGTON — Tucked away in the Republican tax plan are several provisions that have little to do with overhauling the tax code and more to do with ensuring conservative lawmakers vote for the legislation.

The 400-plus-page bill released Thursday includes changes that would codify the rights of “unborn children,” allow tax-exempt religious organizations to engage in political activities and impose hurdles for immigrants seeking to claim refundable tax credits.

Both sides... are wrong!

Are you saying both sides are forgetting one entire side of the ledger; namely, they are only looking income, and not limiting expenditures.

No I’m saying that Republicans pretend to care about it and clearly don’t and never have in the past 4 decades despite the fact that their rube voters think they do.

And the D’s during that time have actually done something to balance it and even create surpluses despite the fact that the idiot republicans keep destroying the economy by deregulating financial institutions, giving billionaires handouts, and waging illegal wars.

It's so very funny when R's complain about the debt and deficit, yet ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS vote for the party that just cuts taxes. And this one is a WHOPPER of a tax cut- $1T added to the deficit. Not the debt, the DEFICIT- which means it will get added that much more every single year. With the hope that tax cuts will lead to a more robust economy.

WHEN HAS THAT EVER HAPPENED??????

Why do some of you continue to vote for these guys if you are HONESTLY worried about the deficit/debt???? I just don't understand that.

You are never going to cut your way to prosperity. Ever.

Because someday I may have a legacy to pass down to my kids and I don't want it taxed. Same as everything else. Delusion is the word for it.

The people who came up with the concept basically admitted it’s a farce, you’d basically have to be the fiscal version of Frauddy to think it works. Or more likely just selfish like the token R who didn’t vote for Trump.
