Fine - can we go back to the same level of spending as a percentage of GDP, repeal obamacare, dodd frank, etc??
spending? oh that ship has sailed, my friend.
for the 1st time in americna history, we didn't raise taxes to fund a war - or two wars.
in fact, we CUT taxes at the same time, with the bush tax cuts.
Obama tried to end them, and repubs threw a hissy until they got their way.
those cuts will be the death of the economy. They had no business being enacted in the early 2000s if we were gonna START a war. You raise taxes in wartime. it's always been lke that. Until Bush. That changed everything.
Obama wants to go back to the old way, and you dipshit historians don't get that. whatever. enjoy 4 more years of obama, enjoy national bankruptcy. but you'll have your bush tax cuts, won't ya, on dollars that aren't valuable at all.
