You keep buying the rhetoric, where is the legislation or do you just read the headlines? Stunning loyalty to rhetoric and such ignorance of legislation and reality
It's no longer rhetoric...take off the blindfold before you lose your income and it's too late
First of all unlike you I understood that SS was a supplement and a poor one at that but still a supplement. Second it has to be submitted as a bill and has to be approved by Congress. If that happens, I will feel sorry for you but still won't support the D party of today that has become the entitlement party that has created people who are dependent on the taxpayers to fund their personal responsibility issues. Let me know when that bill passes Congress. Further I think you read the headlines but never posted the content of the rhetoric
It's not going bankrupt now, which is what he said. ??????????????????????
For me? Whose the one claiming he paid in si it's his? If they get rid of it your check stops right then and so does your Medicare
are you really this financially challenged? You have no problem contributing to SS and Medicare for 35 years and getting nothing in return? Maybe that explains the loyalty to the left, no consequences for poor personal decisions.
Well no.. it does account for the potential detrimental impact of higher tax burdens. If say growth was going along at 4% at x tax burden.
And when that happens its over. The rich will not tolerate not getting social security.
What do you mean getting nothing in return.? You would not have health insurance if not for medicare. You are a terrible risk as an older person.
Yes and thankfully SS and Medicare are supplements to my retirement income and healthcare. Sorry you didn't see it that way, contributed and then expected nothing in return including interest. Imagine what you could have done with that extra income for you and your family if not forced to contribute to SS and Medicare?
The rich already pay more for medicare premiums. And that's not 'over'.
Yep ..we do. But facts remain that Medicare is the only insurance that would cover you when you are 90 with a heart condition.
In other words you have no cogent rebuttal to the facts I have pointed out.
There are no facts you presented and anyone who believes that keeping more of what you earn is an expense to the gov't isn't a conservative. You don't pay for tax cuts, tax cuts mean you need less gov't spending and liberals like you cannot stand that
So you mean your federal income taxes are different in California than Nevada?
I see. So what would happen to the government deficit if we dropped taxes to 1% Conservative?
I have answered the question but as usual you ignored the answer, learn what FIT and CIT fund before making unfounded claims. The drop in taxes increased FIT and CIT revenue but more importantly state and local revenue grew due to consumer spending
No overall is the operative word There are two parts of the budget, mandatory spending(SS and Medicare) and discretionary spending(operating expenses of the govt} Interest rate increases boosted debt service and mandatory cost of living adjustments to entitlement spending both created the 2017-2019 deficits. Stimulus spending during the pandemic for the 26 million unemployed Americans gave us the 2020 deficit
That proves my point, you don't have a clue
No you failed to answer. What would happen to the federal deficit if taxes were reduced to 1% and spending remained the same.
In other words the deficit increased. Because spending did not significantly decrease and revenue that would have been brought it,,,, didnt; come in.
Sorry.. it does not prove your point.
