Response is Skeeve the Great Send a noteboard - 16/04/2011 10:19:00 PM
.....different is not a response.

Go back to my post, look at the CBO data, and in your words, tell me what you think.

Hint: saying that you were wrong and that spending is the real problem is the correct reply.

Last try.....


Revenue grows per capita:

1973-1979: 2.7%
1979-1990: 1.8%
1990-2000: 3.2%
2000-2007 (probable peak): approximately zero

Several of those aren't as easy as you make it sound, but the import tax is a big no-no. Legolas - 16/04/2011 07:34:30 PM 981 Views

Funny you mentioned WWII and 1968. Can you put tax rates at these times as well? Skeeve the Great - 16/04/2011 07:50:09 PM 1236 Views
Not really. Even if you can substantially raise tax revenue, the entitlement problem remains. *NM* Legolas - 16/04/2011 08:25:26 PM 365 Views

Have you ever looked at those projections for a decade or two hence? Legolas - 16/04/2011 10:13:12 PM 860 Views
Yes I have Skeeve the Great - 16/04/2011 10:44:50 PM 989 Views
Erm, and you think total health care spending is not getting out of control? I'm a little confused. Legolas - 16/04/2011 11:02:52 PM 922 Views
Yes it's going out of control Skeeve the Great - 16/04/2011 11:17:59 PM 876 Views
Good, we agree on that much then. Legolas - 17/04/2011 09:59:17 AM 831 Views
Exactly. Cutting back on fraud and waste doesn't really put much of a dent in those projections. *NM* Tom - 17/04/2011 02:31:13 AM 344 Views
Sorry, but that is a stupid opinion..... trzaska2000 - 16/04/2011 08:38:35 PM 826 Views
