I will ask again.
What is your solution to our National Debt ?
From the lowest county employee to the President, if it's not self funding, eliminate it.
No tax dollars for retired government bureaucrats.

Are you aware that the debt ceiling merely deals with PAYING for "credit card" purchases our government - under both republican and democratic administrations - has ALREADY rung up?Taipan » 20 Jan 2023, 6:29 pm » wrote: ↑ Wow.
Your facts = Let's spend more money !!
Mine = Let's save money.......& be financially strong.
Choose. Your path or mine?
Choose.
Are you aware that the Constitution speaks directly to the subject?
14th Amendment, section 4. "The validity of the public debt of the United States, authorized by law, including debts incurred for payment of pensions and bounties for services in suppressing insurrection or rebellion, shall not be questioned."

Give us a source for that claim.slideman » 19 Jan 2023, 3:18 pm » wrote: ↑ Curbing expenditures and maintaining the good faith and credit of the United States are not necessarily mutually exclusive propositions.
The Republicans want to use it as an excuse to cut social security and Medicare which are vital social programs.
I've seen plenty of you make it - none of you back it.

anything over 160,000 is not taxed for social security.Taipan » 20 Jan 2023, 6:15 pm » wrote: ↑ No.
Let's don't raise the cap.
Here is why.
We don't want to go further into debt.
That will hurt us financially.
Why is spending with what we got a bad idea?

the 160,000 cap is way too low and a lot of money could be put into social security without increasing the national debt.
increase the limit to 200,000 and maybe increasing it to 250,000 at a lower tax (perhaps 4 percent) rate after 200,000.

The Former Presidents Act of 1958 provides several benefits and perks that are available to presidents after they leave office. The biggest personal benefit that former presidents are entitled to is an annual pension equal to the pay for a Cabinet Secretary, which is $221,400 in 2021. Widows of former Presidents are eligible for a $20,000 yearly pension. In addition former Presidents and their spouses can opt to receive lifetime Secret Service protection.Below is an overview of the of the additional benefits for former presidents (a more detailed analysis is available in NTUF's November 2020 issue brief, Congress Should Roll Back Perks to Ex-Presidents Costing Taxpayers $4 Million Annually):
- Office Space and Staffing Allowances: Starting six months after a President leaves office, the General Services Administration (GSA) provides funding to establish, furnish, and staff an official office anywhere in the U.S.
- Travel Expenses: Chief Executives and up to two staff members are reimbursed for up to $1 million in costs annually. Spouses of former Presidents also are eligible for up to $500,000 per year for security and official travel.
