Where is the money going to come from? The well is dry.

cut defense spending by 150B...as conservatives have even
recommended...

That doesn't even pay the interes ton Obama's $3 trillion.

yeah i know. you want 25% unemployment


Try hacking $1.5 trillion (and rising). That is where you break even.

gee. the biggest spender in history was bush. if he couldnt do it with
his marxism for the rich...what makes you think obama can cure what
bush destroyed?


borrow even more and use it to pump up the economy.

Tried that, does not work.

gee. it worked for the last 3 quarters. economy was growing.
unemployment dropping

but as soon as the right wing started talked slashing spending, the
stock market drops 1000 points

Reagan did better, in less taxes. His only
mistake was not shrinking government to fit.

reagan was the author of the great shell game. it took 30 years but
his socialism for the rich finally hit pay dirt when the economy
tanked in 2007


force companies to distribute productivy increases to their workers
instead of paying dividends to give the middle class a pay increase to
SPEND

What increases? GM went bankrupt sucking over $177 billion in wealth
down the sewer. (not including GMAC)

the right wing exists in an echo chamber...

productivty has increased in every quarter in the last 2 years. the
middle class hasn't seen any increase in real wages in 10 years in
spite of the fact producdtivity has increased 28% in that time.

you're just too stupid to know the facts.

being right wing is a learning disability


and implement tax cuts for the MIDDLE CLASS, not the rich, like the
GOP has been doing for 30 years

Funny, finally got around to Reaganomics. Took about 10 months and the
recession ended.

that was a recession. this is a depression. and guess who reagan's fed
chairman was? guess who obama has managing his economic policy?

answer to both: paul volker

But given the government debt/deficit, hacking away at government waste
with a chain saw is also needed.

how'd that work in 29?
