Democrat Debates

No, TARP wasn't a tax.  It was a giant expenditure of taxpayer funds, but it wasn't a tax.

The "penalties" for not proving that you had healthcare coverage was a tax, despite all of the lingual gymnastics trying to prove otherwise.  

Tax cuts don't work without spending cuts.  Without spending cuts you just run larger deficits like the 1.6 T we're heading towards for this year.  

The problem is this... Dems say "raise taxes and we'll give everybody more free stuff."  The Republicans say "we'll cut taxes and the economy will improve."  The only problem is that both sides refuse to do anything to combat their collective out-of-control spending and our debt is going to be the end of our nation.  Anytime somebody mentions curbing spending, all they know how to do is shut down National Parks for the week and hold up income tax refunds.  

The thing is this... we can't fit 7.5 billion people inside our borders and give them all a place to live, free healthcare, free college, free food, and monthly stipend, regardless of what those 20 people have promised over the last two days.  We can't even afford to give that to all of the people who already live here.  

Free healthcare isn't a right.  You have a right to travel freely about the country.  You don't have the right to a free car and free gas.  Somewhere along the way we've confused what "rights" really are. We can't even provide affordable health insurance to people who are trying to pay for their own because people who try to pay for their own end up subsidizing all of the people who believe that somebody else should take care of them.  

We have the right to bear arms....  I wonder how many of those on stage over the last two days would support a movement to provide free weaponry to anybody who wants one?

Maybe if our premiums could be written off, even stipulating a certain amount, would be the government’s way of at least helping the working stiff. After looking at how the government takes care of the people willing to die for you and me, who the heck would trust free healthcare?

I hope Mr Joe Voter realizes that Medicare is not a blank HC check.  There's a nice deductible and a giant one for Hospital care.   All Dr's do not accept Medicare.  Also, you need a very expensive supplement for Hospital stays.

And did anyone hear them say anything about helping Seniors?   Help - help - help illegal immigrants, but nothing for the old people who helped build this country.   No free Medicare.  No SSecurity raise.  Only thing the Dims might do for old folks is pass a right to die Bill, & the quicker we're gone, the better.  Gotta love me some Democrats - Not!

The Donald is killing it again

 

I am in Japan at the G-20, representing our Country well, but I heard it was not a good day for Sleepy Joe or Crazy Bernie. One is exhausted, the other is nuts - so what’s the big deal?

This is sad but true about the Democrats.

They will ruin this country if given the opportunity.

And the scary part - they’re  just one election away from getting that opportunity.
