No we don't...It's a complete lie, and you swallowed it hook line and sinker

Wait, there's an American Pirate Party? Their candidates must have an "Ahrrrrr" in front of their names. rofllol

No you couldn't..And sorry, i'm not betting my future on Wall Street..


BTW, the savings rate in this country is in negative numbers..Thanks to stangnant wages since Ronald Reagan the masses are retiring with mortages and nothing in the bank. And your full of crap anyway. Ever hear of poor houses, thats where people like you went to die when you couldn't work anymore?

History, look into it. Things weren't that great for old folks at the turn of the century

VL, did you pass 4th grade math? Just wondering.

2+2= ?

a. 0
b. 1 Trillion
c. 4

c

And like you guys have studied the numbers..Give me a F-ing break, you just repeat what you hear..

Oh the sky is falling!

Last year it was the Mexican invasion, whats it gonna be next year guys?

Ask me a question VL.

And the savings rate is now positive. And yes we are going bankrupt, sooner than you think.

I do believe SS and Medicare will survive in a much reduced form, highly means tested, and with much higher taxes to fund them. The voters will demand it.

Well..I guess we'll just have to raise taxes on rich people and stop spending what the rest of the world combined spends on defense then...Huh?

Afghanistian will cost us 300 billion in the next 3 years..Cry about that before you start crying about some 89 year old widow getting $1300/month

Raising taxes on the rich and cutting defense will get you about 20% of the way there, keep going.

20% of the way to what? Zero deficeits? Did you just crunch the numbers? You should be in Obamas cabinet if you can run all the numbers in less than a minute like that -

Just throw sh** out there and hope it sticks huh?

My numbers are ballpark, but probably as good as your gambling picks!

$100 Billion for taxing the >250K club
$100 Billion for war spending
$100 Billion other Defense cuts

.3T/1.4T= 21.4% off a tad, sorry.
