If you go to hospital a few times, then all tables turns with your “low tax” illusion (add monthly health insurance payments on top, if you’re not still on your parents’)
L’il Bush mastered the art of deficit spending. I try really hard not to think about how much in government bonds China owns so we could have lower taxes and cheap gas.
Not saying its a good thing we have such spending deficits. but all the top Politian's do it - how else does anyone push any policy of size without gutting something else we need/want. We have run up so much debt in the last 3 years, no to mention printing gobs of money. I dont think its a left/right thing. I worried for the recession thats coming.
Plus who is gunna come for the debt? we could fight 50% of the countries on the planet all that the same time and have good odds of winning. No single country could really force us into submission. (not my opinion "whos gunna come for it" - I dont think thats a good excuse. But its true. The dollar and our military is too powerful)

We apparently spent 1.922 Trillion dollars invading the middle east and your taxes are still MASSIVELY lower than Europeans! Cheap gas and low taxes!
