Fireballer 2,639 Posted April 3, 2024 Bill was MAGA.  There’s no mistaking that our institutions have aided in moving our societal norms well to the left.  You gotta give the lefties props for playing the long game.  Good thread  1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes of course. (I wouldn’t have, but my views on this issue are far more extreme than Kamala’s). 2. Yes but I’m skeptical that Johnson would work with her. The budget can’t be balanced without significantly raising taxes AND cutting spending including spending on wasteful military projects, not just stuff that liberals like. Johnson hasn’t displayed any willingness to consider either approach.  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The budget can’t be balanced without significantly raising taxes AND cutting spending including spending on wasteful military projects, not just stuff that liberals like. Johnson hasn’t displayed any willingness to consider either approach.  I just don't see it based on her actions and her comments that the border was secure during the Biden Administration. To me it showed a willing deception to the status that she knew to be true at the time, that the border was a huge issue. In the interview with Bret Baier, she referenced the first bill they tried to pass when controlling both chambers and the White House. That bill included a pathway to citizenship for undocumented immigrants without securing the border. I'm sure you will disagree with the summary and we are far apart on this, but there were Democrats who opposed it for those very reasons. I'm happy that now she sees it as an issue, but the reality is that it was an issue much earlier. I'm not one who calls her dumb or stupid, but by that same token I feel she fully knew the situation at the border was dire and basically took the administration stance of lying to the public about it being secure. So I do view her way to the left of the Clinton Administration when it comes to the border. You may well be right on Johnson, and more so that Johnson is held hostage by his caucus in a way Gingrich wasn't. Your second point is largely true, and neither party is going to address it. If we are going to run deficits, I'd rather do it with relatively lower spending and relatively lower taxes, even if I think spending is too high. The reason for that is it gives us more runway or altitude to raise revenues in the future to offset that lesser spending. It's also hard to reel in spending once we add a new program. At least if you're working with somewhat smaller numbers, even if the deficit was the same, you have more room to fix the issue. Sadly, I don't see anyone fixing the issue so it's just like trying to keep altitude on a plane without engines praying at some point they restart because you're crashing, it's just a matter of how much time you are leaving to try and find a solution.
