Biden / Harris Focused Discussion

[Machismo]

By cutting military spending, redirecting previous corporate healthcare spending into payroll taxes, and taxing the wealthy their fair share. Yes, including a marginal rate. How do you plan to pay to get to work on fully privatized infrastructure?

So, your goal is to just tax someone else? What exactly is "their fair share?"

I'm just here to push Biden and his supporters to spend a little less.

That's an awfully verbose way of saying "being a contrarian nuisance".

[Machismo]

Again: get your eyes checked.

Once again, how do you actually plan on PAYING for it.

I get that you want to spend it. But, that's not covering how you are going to actually get the money.

What's wrong with compromise and fiscal responsibility?

What part of "the money is already there" is so hard for you to grasp?

Fortunately for you, poor eyesight is a treatable condition and would be covered under Medicare for All.

The part where you give us a sufficient reason to give enough of a shit about your opinion to deem it worth compromising with besides "I have a computer".

It's not already there... we're already pushing a massive deficit. The continued need to keep borrowing more, shows that the money really isn't there.

Should we just print all the money we need?

Nah, it just shows that you don't understand how sovereign debt works and seem to equate it with personal debt. Lol.

[uuuhname]

taking money from the military's budget would be the compromise in this situation, since we all know the reactions when we dare say increase taxes on certain people.

[Machismo]

Should we just print all the money, or just keep pushing that debt onto future generations?

Do you honestly think you are leaving your children and grandchildren with a country that is worth the money you are forcing them to pay for?

[uuuhname]

also not sure why the deficit is such a big deal or the debt for that matter, it's all made up. the government can just make up more money when it needs to.

Take money from Social Security and Medicare, as well.

You do know what printing massive amounts of money leads to... right?

how about no? you talk about leaving future generations off worse than the previous and taking away their social safety net is pretty much the only thing you could do to make their lives worse, not this boogieman about debt that's not even theirs.

Moving the goalposts from "you can't pay for this" to "I don't like the ways you pay for it" is kinda cringe, tbh.

By investing into infrastructure and public services?

Yes. Absolutely. Sorry to that second yacht you can't afford.

where is this money the government came up with that's kept the stock market from collapsing this whole pandemic?

Social Security is specifically the younger generations taking care of the older generations.

It's time people weren't so damn lazy, and provided for themselves.

It takes a really warped worldview to equate this with defense spending, lol.

If you think this country is in a good enough position to warrant our absurd debt... then you haven't been paying attention.

It wasn't until people like you started gutting its funding, sweaty.

We have: there's more than enough money, the problem is just like 20 people and their legion of shills hoarding it all.

[Machismo]

Not really, people seem to consider both as "very important.

I consider neither to be that important, particularly with how much we spend on each.

Have a swell day!!!

and? how is that a bad thing? are you one of those guys on those so called death panels?

The problem is that the younger people don't have a say in the matter, it's pure fucking selfishness.

I hope the Biden Administration stops the trend.
