sorry no pretty little pictures and cool cartoons for the simpletons

I digress ...

The portion of the nation's total $15.3 trillion debt held by the public, now about 70% of the economy, would rise to 85% in 2021 under the group's pessimistic baseline. Romney would boost that to 96% of the economy because of an expensive tax-cut plan he unveiled Wednesday. Gingrich and Santorum would raise the public debt well above 100%.
In Gingrich's case, the main drivers of the debt would be his plans to create an alternative flat tax of 15%, eliminate all capital gains taxes, drop the corporate tax rate from 35% to 12.5% and establish private accounts for Social Security. His plan would add another $7 trillion to the debt over the course of his potential two terms, the analysis found.
Santorum would greatly reduce individual and corporate income taxes. He promises to cut spending by $5 trillion over five years, but he doesn't say how he would do it.
Romney, whose plan was found the most credible because he offsets many of his tax cuts, would reduce individual tax rates by 20% and eliminate the alternative minimum tax.
"All of these candidates fail," said Alice Rivlin, former director of the White House budget office and the Congressional Budget Office. "They all reduce the revenue available to the U.S. government over time."


Little doubt why their so content to focus on birth control.
unlike the mountain of debt the democrats have created?

CJ7, it IS amazing!

Both the number of illiterates we have here. AND then when the numbers are crunched on the each candidate's proposed budget and taxes, Obama comes in as the candidate who would add the least to the debt BY MILES!

I think the Teapublicans are just used to looking at pictures and not really reading.


It is easy to do when looking at showcases but it seems odd when reading a non-sexual post about documented debt projections based on each candidate's budget and tax proposals.

"Related to I.B." LMAO!

google republican candidates raise debt, there you will find thousands of links .. national news unless youve been under a rock


btw, the group that did the study was headed up by the founder of the CBO, and we all know how much you respect the CBO
Whirlaway's real life job is acting. He plays the part of that guy in the Geico commercial who comes out from under the rock and reads the billboard. Too much restricted content Fox "News" watching, Whirly!

Too bad the Koch Brothers can't use the Heritage people or one of their many Super PACs to take the place of the CBO.

After all, he is Kool Aid drinking Obamanite, and he doesn't have the cognitive skills to learn or cope. So far, his meager attempts to cite have bit him in the ass, so he is obviously afraid to try again.

Neither Democrats nor Republicans can be trusted with the national debt. Both sides will increase it. We must get away from electing only "electable" candidates. Both sides spell disaster. The choice of either Obama or Romrichantorum is like choosing between a guillotine and a firing squad. The end result is the same.
