[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It makes perfect sense why the DCUM boards are filled to the rim with Democrats / Liberals. The DC area is very blue. I guess these people love paying taxes.[/quote] It’s patriotic to pay my fair share of taxes, yes. State and local. I want to fund first responders, teachers, social services, infrastructure, national defense, regulation of food and product safety, environmental protection, etc. All the things that make our society work. I believe in the common good. I’m assuming you don’t. Or you are like those who complain they can’t access newspaper articles online without paying for them, as if journalism sprouts up for free. [/quote] Going broke will not help the common good. And, lots of that spending is not needed. Have you ever worked for the federal government? Been asked to find places to spend money in late September? Lots of waste.[/quote] Then stop supporting republicans who have the fiscal management strengths of the guy you cited who lives in a mansion with $50k equity in it. They are the ones who have driven this country off the fiscal cliff with their deficit spending and tax cuts, while exploding the defense budget. [twitter]https://twitter.com/MikeOkuda/status/1584046410915201024[/twitter] You keep toeing the party line which are filled with lies.[/quote] Where was Nancy Pelosi and the democrat congress in all that?[/quote] do you remember when Trump and the GOP passed the last tax cut in 2017 that even at the time was deemed unsustainable? Nancy Pelosi and the democrats voted agaist it but they were the minority. see Forbes and WSJ, two notoriously commie outlets (and all this was before the pandemic, so the pandemic is no excuse) https://www.forbes.com/sites/christianweller/2020/01/29/trumps-wasteful-tax-cuts-lead-to-continued-trillion-dollar-deficits-in-expanding-economy/?sh=79cd87a066c4 https://www.wsj.com/articles/trumps-tax-cut-underdelivers-which-could-embolden-democrats-who-want-it-reversed-11572447580 G. Bush did it too, aggressive tax cut (mostly for the wealthy), big defense spending and huge deficits. in the past 30+ years, the Dems are the ones coming in and cleaning up the mess [/quote]
