How'd that work for Kansas?

How'd tax and spend work for Illinois?

Maybe you've been listening to economists who graduated from Trump University. Cuts have not historically paid for themselves. The Republicans own numbers show at least a trillion in added debt. Guarantee it will be more.

You cut taxes when the economy is struggling, not when it's booming. No common sense left in Washington.

Then why didn't Obama cut taxes?

Every time we cut taxes revenue increased. It was government spending that was out of whack.

 

[It will be fine]

Then why didn't Obama cut taxes?

He did, a full third of the stimulus was tax cuts.

I don't recall that. Who's taxes were cut?

Doesn't matter if you recall it, look it up. Your taxes went down.

Under Bush. So let me get this straight...the national debt almost doubled under Obama, yet he cut taxes? And y'all are reaming Trump?

Essentially a continuation of the Bush Tax cuts.

In 2010, President Obama signed an $858 billion tax cut deal. It extended the Bush tax cuts through 2012 and unemployment benefits through 2011.

Why Did Obama Extend the Bush Tax Cuts in 2010?

Actually most of those Norwegians in the U.S. have been here for generations. And before the oil was discovered Norway's economy was primarily based on fishing. Wasn't always a socialist paradise.

2009?

Why Did Obama Extend the Bush Tax Cuts in 2010?

Oh yeah, I remember him extending the Bush tax cuts. But IWBF stated that Obama cut taxes. Not the same thing. Seems to me if you're going to spend like he and yes both Dems and Repubs did during his tenure the last thing you'd want to do is cut taxes. Now if a president with business sense came in and cut both personal and business taxes, while reducing spending and regulations, you might have something. All we got under Obama was a lot of debt.

The one example how has it worked for America historically? On a federal level?

As if the National debt goes down during Republican administrations.

For a guy who seems to be anti-marijuana , you seem consistently high.

Every tax cut has seen an increase in revenue. It's not the cuts that are the problem, it's the spending, and no one spends like Democrats. Reagan had to compromise with the Dems to get his agenda through. Could only happen with Dems getting their spending proposals signed by him. G.W. Bush proved to not be a fiscal conservative, I'll give you that one.

Pray tell, which part is ‘revisionist’?

That was one of the most neutral articles I could find.
