    I’m not interested in trying to educate a person of your massive stupidity again. I tried on the atmospheric absorption of the sun’s radiation, but your incredible ignorance failed you.

    You want the text of the bill? Look it up for yourself, cunt.

    I am not changing any tune. Does Congress appropriate money or not? It isn't complicated.

    The Executive and the Legislature are BOTH responsible for the deficit and debt. Not sure why that is hard for you. Unless you are that much of a partisan hack you can't face the truth?

    But the debt was supposed to decline because of all the revenues that came from the increased economic activity vis-a-vis your Russia Tax Cut.

    Only, oops, debt rose to over $22T.

    So cutting taxes doesn't generate increased economic activity and revenues.

    Revenues for 2018 were 2% less than 2017.

    First time that has happened because of tax cuts since 2001-2003.

    You have been fisted so many times on this issue yet you keep coming back for more beatings. It is like you are a slave that just won't do what you are told and like the whip.

    Because your fundamental fiscal and economic beliefs are a joke, it casts doubt over everything else you say and believe.

    You haven't done anything to counter my arguments.

    You all promised your Russia Tax Cut would lead to increased revenues because of increased economic activity.

    But that didn't happen in 2018; revenues were 2% less than 2017.

    So your central economic premise, that cutting taxes leads to increased economic activity and revenues, is a load of bullshit.

    You bought into it because of your bias that was informed by 40 years of Conservative propaganda.

    Revenue was down for 2018 vs. 2017, just like it was down from 2001-2003 because of your Bush Tax Cuts.

    So your shitty Russia Tax Cut didn't grow anything other than the debt.

    I didn't promise anything Toby. I have told you that. I support tax cuts because I want to keep more of my own money that I earn. I don't give a flying fuck about you. You can go back to a plantation for all I care. I don't give a fuck about the debt and deficit anymore. They are nothing more than political talking points for the party out of power and nobody really takes is seriously. At some point in time the piper will have to be paid, but I have made sure that my family and I will be impacted as little as possible.

    I have built out contingency plans and have trained my family on what to do and how to care for themselves.

    So I don't give a flying fuck about your arguments to be honest. As long as I get to keep my money today, that is all that matters. And if it pisses you off in the process, well that is just lagniappe

    So there's no economic or fiscal reason for tax cuts, you just support them because you have a fundamental belief system that doesn't allow for you to admit you were wrong.

    So if you're not going to claim that cutting taxes increases economic activity and revenues, then the only argument you can make is a weak emotional one of hysterics.

    If "keeping more of what you earned" made sense, then revenues would have increased in 2018, but they didn't.

    So that means either that people didn't actually get to keep more of what they earned (because you raised their liability), or that those who kept what they earned didn't spend it in the economy like you insist they would.

    There's no way out of this corner your beliefs have painted you into without admitting your beliefs were wrong and the judgment that led you to those beliefs was wrong.

    You're simply too prideful to admit error in judgment.
