    Cruz Tax Plan Would Cost $8.6 trillion, Second Only to Trump

    In case you missed it the right has rebelled against the establishment and is now trying to make a change. That includes less government and yes, an end to subsidies. The problem is the ever growing and meddling of the federal government and the abuse of that power by ideologues. The only way to...

    Cruz Tax Plan Would Cost $8.6 trillion, Second Only to Trump

    Really? Obama was the King at picking winners and losers. He made sure oil prices stayed high to make "alternative" energy more attractive. He has an ongoing war on coal and he gave billions to alternative energy start ups, all of which have gone under wasting billions in tax payer's money. The...

    Cruz Tax Plan Would Cost $8.6 trillion, Second Only to Trump

    You guys? No one speaks for me but me. Crony Capitalism is a phrase used by the left to garner an emotional response. It is purely a political term. It means nothing! The laws written and used by corporations to amase wealth were voted for by politicians. Why do you think we have a 7000 page...

    Cruz Tax Plan Would Cost $8.6 trillion, Second Only to Trump

    No, but if addressed properly those things will mean that revenues will not need to be as much. It is a wholeistic aporoach.

    Cruz Tax Plan Would Cost $8.6 trillion, Second Only to Trump

    How much does cali owe? How solvent is the state's pension revenues? You need to look at the cost when politicians promise and give gifts in return for election favors... See, the current crop of politicians don't cate how much they borrow because they will be long gone when the bill comes due.

    Cruz Tax Plan Would Cost $8.6 trillion, Second Only to Trump

    You excluded the increased revenues that would pour in due to lower taxes, more hiring, more tax payers, corporate expansion, etc.... Then there are the foreign companies that would flock here to take advantage of the lower corporate taxes. China has one thing we lack, cheap labor, but China...

    Cruz Tax Plan Would Cost $8.6 trillion, Second Only to Trump

    SS and Medicare are not threatened by a restructured tax plan. That is just a scare tactic people on the left use. Saving billions while at the same time limiting government is win win for all Americans. The left's ideology and ideas are slowly leading this nation to bankruptsy. And when that...

    "Tax and Spend" is Fiscally Responsible; "Borrow and Spend" is Not

    Re: "Tax and Spend" is Fiscally Responsible; "Borrow and Spend" is Not OK, no way I am reading all these comments on what should be a common sense understanding of basic economics. Why are there so many opinions on economic policies? Simple. Some people are being less than...

    What is your philosophy regarding the U.S. Constitution?

    Well said! Unfortunately, todays Americans are more concerned with what government can give them then with losing their individual rights and freedoms. Dim bulbs all!

    Cruz Tax Plan Would Cost $8.6 trillion, Second Only to Trump

    Not sure where you are getting your facts. But under Reagan the net tax effect was a lowering of taxes. Did he raise some? Yes! But he also lowered more than he raised. Where will the extra money come from under Cruz's tax plan? Savings concerning the IRS restructuring. Savings when big corps...

    Cruz Tax Plan Would Cost $8.6 trillion, Second Only to Trump

    Cute play on words. What do they mean it would "cost" the federal government? How much do you suppose the government (the people) would save by drastically cutting or eliminating all together, the IRS? Cruz's altimate tax goal is a fair tax plan. There are any number of other federal...

    Re: Why has college and health care gotten so expensive? Same reason everything got t Health care costs are high as a direct result of government limits. Insurance companies ensure those limits stay in effect. Let health insurance compete nation wide and watch the rates drop. Give people...

    fair and balanced?

    If the economy is so good why do we have a deficit each year and why under Obama have we seen record borrowing to a 18.5 trillion dollar debt? Yes, there is a discrepency between the government's unemployment figure and the reality. But the hardest hit under Obama is by far the black community...
