We always increase spending

But not equally and not everywhere.

So they're pulling from health care and education to fund the military because tax cuts caused budget deficits because tax cuts always reduce revenue, they never produce more of it and they never pay for themselves. So the money pulled from health care and education is made up for by increased out of pocket costs on things like tuition, premiums, and copays.

So if your goal is to make an argument with standards so low they are lying on the floor thus debasing yourself, then go for it loser.

I'm not going to stop you from being a moron.

 

[LV426]

you tried to keep pulling up bullshit - point out to idiotic examples of how states cut spending on educatio

LMAO!

You mean I point out examples of how YOU ARE FUCKING WRONG.

Pointing out that you are wrong about most things is not my goal here, though it is a nice added benefit.

meanwhile the spending on education per child skyrockets

Not according to any data you shared.

The data you shared shows education spending stopped skyrocketing in the 1970's.

That was according to YOUR LINK, YOU FUCKING MORON.

By May of 2020, most states had ended their lockdowns.

And had you kept your fucking mouth shut, we wouldn't have had a pandemic at all.

 

[LV426]

What a retarded argument you make

All you do is come on JPP and post shit you stole from other people and try to pass it off as your own original thought.

You're such a fucking pussy that you didn't go to DC on 1/6 despite screeching like a barnyard animal about a "stolen election" or whatever.

LOSER.

Good thing that so many jobs are being added, and that this is still incredibly low unemployment.

It cracks me up that conservatives go out of their way to try to find bad news.

Oh really. Do you realize you are insane?

BTW This is what California the largest economy in the country California did.

A state of emergency was declared in the state on March 4, 2020. A mandatory statewide stay-at-home order was issued on March 19, 2020, that was ended on January 25, 2021.[12] On April 6, 2021, the state announced plans to fully reopen the economy by June 15, 2021.[13]

So what?

CA's economy GREW during the pandemic and is now the 4th largest in the world.

Before the pandemic it was #7, now it's #4.

The most hilarious thing is that you lost elections in November by margins small enough that COVID made the difference.

My mistake...63 years.

this fucking retard admits 1 of his 5 million mistakes

We will take it jack ass. I am sure that was extremely hard for your fragile ego.

meanwhile - spending on education between 1960 and 2020 went from 2k per child to 20k per child. - and that is adjusted for inflation

so you continue to lie about your core point

 

[LV426]

this fucking retard admits 1 of his 5 million mistakes

LMAO!

You said education spending is "Skyrocketing", except the data you shared shows it hasn't since the 1970's.

So the period you claim it was "skyrocketing" was 1963-2023, except the data you shared shows it "skyrocketed" in the 60's and 70's before it was cut:

 

[LV426]

I am sure that was extremely hard for your fragile ego.

What point do you think you're making by going back 63 years? Because the data you shared showed education funding stopped "skyrocketing" in the 1970's.

Also, you're a hack who steals my lines because you're not clever enough to come up with any on your own.

But you seem to steal a lot of things, and the reason is because you're just too fucking lazy and stupid to think of things on your own.

That's why I said you're terrible at posting on the internet.

 

[LV426]

so you continue to lie about your core point

You're the liar because you can't source that $20K number or show your work to how you got to it.

So as it stands, you are the only one who is lying here.

 

[zymurgy]

LMAO!

You said education spending is "Skyrocketing", except the data you shared shows it hasn't since the 1970's.

So the period you claim it was "skyrocketing" was 1963-2023, except the data you shared shows it "skyrocketed" in the 60's and 70's before it was cut:

again that is gdp - not dollars adjusted for inflation but even so - Draw the trendline - that is an arrow going up. a single year dip does not change the trendline you fucking jackass! spending per child has skyrocketed, just as I stated.

and here is why you are a retard. The reason for why savings have depleted is quite simple - that is what they wanted to happen!

We live in a perverse age where inflation rates are higher than savings rates. The overwhelming incentive is to borrow and spend, not to produce and save. It is that simple. We no longer live in a world of reason where credit expansion requires savings. Where we have a check and balance preventing greedy people today from pushing their spending and goals onto the future class that has no vote or say.

As soon as Americans get conservative about their consumption, we will go into a recession and you people will freak out because our debt burden requires us to never go into a recession. That is the house of cards you support. Good luck ever fixing it!

Why does America consume 50% of the resources while being 5% of population? Because of our perverse system. the one you continue to support and lie about constantly. Like pretending we are not spending more on education

 

[LV426]

meanwhile - spending on education between 1960 and 2020 went from 2k per child to 20k per child. - and that is adjusted for inflation

OK, a few things:

1. That is a long period of 63 years.

2. The data you shared showed the "skyrocketing" ceased in the 1970's.

3. The other data you shared showed that personal savings were the highest when government spending was also at its highest and the top tax rate was 90%

4. The data you shared also shows that you are exaggerating the "skyrocketing". Between the peak in 1975 and today, education funding as a % of GDP declined as personal savings also declined. Education funding as a % of GDP today is the same as it was in the 1970's...so it quite literally DIDN'T skyrocket over 63 years...it "skyrocketed" over 15 years and then maintained that level +/- for the next 50 until COVID.

5. You haven't shown how you even got to that $20K number, which makes me believe you made it up.

You avoided all five points multiple times over this thread because you're trying to convince everyone of something that is clearly not true.

 

[LV426]

again that is gdp - not dollars adjusted for inflation but even so

You're the fucking idiot who posted a link to education spending as a percentage of GDP because you were convinced "skyrocketing" government spending was causing personal savings to decline, except that the data you shared shows the opposite.

When personal savings were at their highest, education spending was also at its highest (as a percentage of GDP) and the top tax rate was 90%.

So if personal savings are truly what you genuinely are concerned about (and I don't believe you truly are, I think you're lying), then you should be advocating for a return to the conditions that produced it...those conditions were high education spending and high taxation.

That is all according to the data you've shared.

So the dissonance is that you think cutting taxes leads to personal savings, but the reality is that it leads to increased personal debt.

 

[LV426]

spending per child has skyrocketed, just as I stated.

HAD skyrocketed...50-65 years ago.

Since then, it has been static and is at the level it was 50 years ago, but the difference is that today personal savings are at their lowest when back then, when education spending made up a larger % of GDP, personal savings were at their highest.

That is according to the data you shared, dipshit.
