Why the butthurt over brexit? :)

i read this article before about minting a one trillion dollar coin to pay for the debt. It sounded insane but I couldnt find any obvious holes in its argument.

And Republicans wouldn't listen to the Tea Party, about the debt---when they weren't deriding them.

So we gave them Trump. Now they can cry me a river. George Will, Paul Ryan, the #NeverTrumpRump and the whole lot of them

Trump doesn't care about debt either. He's made that very clear.

If debt is the issue we have to look at what we spend money on. Our two biggest expenses are entitlements and the military. Trump has said he won't touch entitlements and will increase military spending. One can't be serious about the debt and say they won't touch entitlements.

But let's be honest, how many people who complain about the debt don't want entitlements touched? I believe quite a lot.

I know you said screw Paul Ryan earlier but he was the architect of the 2011 budget that did address entitlements. Democrats wailed about about pushing granny over the cliff again. What did you think of his budget?

I think if we reduce those two consumer spending would decrease by a lot and our economy would come crashing down.

The Ryan budget that failed to pass you mean? It was a great budget. It's going to be a Great Wall lol.

My best hope with Trump is to get the country turned back in the right direction. A repeat of Reagans best 4 years would only comprise a turn in the right direction.

Trump isn't going to do this AND that AND that. Nobody could. But I believe he can get it started. Hillary sure as hell won't.

It passed the House. Couldn't pass a Democratic led Senate or Obama. The Path to Prosperity was the closest thing we've seen to a plan to address the debt. Trump and Hillary have nada.

The alternative is to look at someone like a Gary Johnson. Trump and Hillary are both Democrats who don't care about it. The sad part is the last time we had a little fiscal sanity was Bill Clinton and a Republican Congress.
