RE: Wasnt the Super-Committees sole purpose is to identify spending cuts?
... And to raise revenue ( you know what that is code for ).
We can rule out you getting reelected if you support tax increases.
With spending cuts, and removal of unnecessary regulations on businesses, the economy will grow like gangbusters, and there will be plenty of money coming in to the treasury, so meet all the legitimate needs of the federal government.
There is NO way we can go on with these jackazzes! No matter how many Conservatives are in there,They are led By a Weeping POS RINO.
It looks like Camp needs to be voted out in ‘12.
Every 1% increase in taxes invokes 3% decrease in GDP.
Tax revenue is never more than 20% of GDP. We're about 18% now.
Ergo, roughly, every tax-increase dollar of revenue sucks up to $15 out of the economy.
All of CONgress is a joke.This really needs no coverage. They are all bought & paid for by the elites so ONLY when the people get totally fed up & start CW11 will anything change. However, the sheeple have NFL football & a six-pack. Life is still OK. As the frog in the pan this is what will happen - inflation with more jobs overseas because the PTB is the corporations.
wow (I never saw this coming) /s/
Politicians are at their ‘best’ when dreaming up ways to NOT decrease their spending and bureaucratic expansion. The best example being Proposition 13 in California which was expressly crafted to ‘starve the beast’ and get the Dems in Sacramento under control. Did it? No! They invented ‘fees’ and ‘user charges’ and they borrowed and borrowed and borrowed. The one thing they did not do is control/limit/reduce spending and the other thing was to reduce or limit the size of government. Coming soon to a federal government near you! Be afraid, be very afraid.
