Democrats say that we shouldn t worry about the cost of their bill to expand the State Children s Health Insurance Program. They say that we will spend less on S-CHIP all year than we spend on Iraq in one month. That s true, in the short run. But the Iraq War will one day end. A new entitlement won t. Instead, it will grow and grow. Future fiscal crises are built into the design of S-CHIP. It is funded through cigarette taxes, and will be underfunded to the extent that those taxes succeed in discouraging smoking. But that s the least of the program s flaws. Under the Democrats bill, states will be able to expand benefits and stick the federal government with two-thirds of the tab. The Medicaid program shows us how these incentives will… [cont.] Asked by mission_viejo_california - Wed Oct 3 16:19:27 2007 - - 12 Answers - 0 Comments A. They don't care, it makes them feel good.

Answered by Brian - Wed Oct 3 16:24:12 2007 If lowering taxes is the GOP's solution to economic growth, why haven't our current low tax rates worked? Q. I am sick of this argument that is continually brought up by Republicans that lowering taxes will help grow our economy. Poppycock---all of it. Our capital gains taxes, corporate and personal tax rates are currently low and have been for a while. We should have spectacular growth right now. What grows an economy is manufacturing. Too bad Reagan and all his free market buddies gave away all our wealth creation to the world. We will never become wealthy as a country again until we make thing here and sell them around the world. Right now all our wealth is going out of the country and less and less is coming in. Asked by Change Now - Fri Nov 13 20:28:36 2009 - - 7 Answers - 0 Comments A. I note you don't have any sources to back up your statement. The Bush tax cuts worked precisely as they were supposed to. When the tax cuts went into effect income tax revenue jumped from $925 Billion in 2003 to $1.534 Billion in 2007. That is a huge jump. The numbers were the same in Reagan's era, he nearly doubled the tax receipts when his income tax cuts hit. The problem as always is Congress spending too much.

Q. I recognize that the liberals are proposing changes that are mostly for the worse, but is today's America really worth conserving? Is it really desirable that we conserve a country with an economy based around a pyramid of debt? Is it really desirable that we conserve the biggest imperialist empire that the world has ever seen? Is it really desirable that we conserve a country where half of all marriages end in divorce, the education system dumbs down our children, and there is no respect for the sanctity of life? Is it really desirable that we conserve a country where the highest tax rate is around 40%? Is it really desirable that we conserve a country where a central bank is allowed to create money backed by nothing out of thin air?… [cont.] Asked by Brad - Fri Feb 13 18:00:28 2009 - - 7 Answers - 0 Comments A. Yes. Do you realize that in many countries you wouldn't even be able to ASK this question?
