Highmark 11,794 Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 (edited) In 2023 Fed, State and Local govts are expected to collect close to $9 trillion in tax revenue. That’s $27,272 per man woman and child in this country. Family of 4 $109,088. Almost $5 trillion collected by the fed govt alone and we will still run a trillion dollar deficit. Yet half our country thinks we don’t collect enough money and spend too little.

Many poor and middle class pay no federal income taxes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
racer254 3,577 Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 27K collected per man woman and child and then we wonder why no one can afford a car loan. Thanks DEMOCRATS. And some of the rest of that Washington swamp, but keep voting for 40+ year politicians. 81million idiots and not one of them here will admit it. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I remember that I never supported any of these bills. It doesn't matter if it is a dem or rep. I also know that every POTUS before trump spent time in politics in Washington as part of those other 535. Think about who you bitch about. The guy who was on 4 years, or the swamp who are in for 40 +? Edited January 25 by racer254 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It was the biggest display of hypocrisy anyone has ever put forth on these forums. Retarded tea party Trumpers making excuses for massive government spending. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Not 1 dime spent without out your orange god's signature. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I always harped on Trumps spending. 2. Vast majority of that come in 2020 during the pandemic. I wish he would have held firm on some of the spending but there really wasn't much choice on some of it. 3. Congress has much more to do with spending than the POTUS.

No excuse even when the Senate had means of stopping it. Trump and the GOP should have stood strong and shut the govt down. Again spending was one of the biggest disappointments I had with Trump but as I've also said before no candidate is going to meet every single one of your political values. You have to choose one the meets the most of them. Do you approve of everything Biden does? And sounding like a broken record around 65% of the fed budget is mandatory spending that is set by previous laws and very, very difficult to do anything about. https://www.heritage.org/budget-and-spending/commentary/trump-budget-cuts-size-federal-government-bolder-reforms-needed Edited January 25 by Highmark 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They always wanna take credit on one hand for things like stock market 30k!!!!, etc. I think I even saw a thread about it, but then condemn the deficits on the other - seemingly unaware that the two are very much related. Directly, not inversely. It’s like, but that’s the package. It’s like bragging up your RAM 1500 TRX’s HP but then saying you always condemned it’s fuel economy as if there’s some magical universe where the two are mutually exclusive.
