Don't expect those to make it through the House. Hell, the Senate is probably iffy when it comes to those.IkeBana » 09 Mar 2023, 12:23 pm » wrote: ↑ Biden budget would cut deficit by $3 trillion over next decade with 25% minimum tax on richest AmericansBiden also raises more revenue by increasing taxes on oil and gas companies, hiking the corporate tax rate to 28%, up from 21% and allowing Medicare to negotiate drug prices.
The president’s spending priorities include increasing funding for early childhood education and child care, expanding the $35 cap on insulin prices to all Americans and expanding free community college.
The budget also boosts military spending to more than $835 billion, making it among the largest peacetime expenditures in U.S. history.
Well done, Joe. We have an actual President in place of the former criminal enterprise.
What would you suggest cutting?Vegas » 09 Mar 2023, 12:37 pm » wrote: ↑ As much as I believe defense is vital, I question if we need to spend the amount that we do on it. I mean, would our safety really be jeopardized if we cut some of the defense spending and used it to fund education?

Wages and/or benefits for active duty members and their families?
Retirement and benefits for veterans?
Stop maintaining and repairs existing buildings, equipment, housing, infrastructure within the facilities?
Cut back on training and readiness?
Stop replacing old weapons systems that may be obsolete?
Stop maintaining existing weapon systems?
Keep in mind, the budget also has to keep up with Bidenflation.
You can give unlimited greenies any time. After you give 25 in a 24hr period, the greenies begin to come off of your own pile. I will demonstrate on this post.LincolnNebraska » 09 Mar 2023, 12:42 pm » wrote: ↑ @Cannonpointer How did user Trump Rules give 10 green + marks to the OP in one swoop? I am limited to five per day.

For everyone else, Trump Rules is a Pastafarian sock puppet. He is also a Groomer.
Biden doesn't set budgets for ten years - the next guy sets his own budget, you stupid queer.IkeBana » 09 Mar 2023, 12:23 pm » wrote: ↑ Biden budget would cut deficit by $3 trillion over next decade

The reddies are limited to 5 per day. I know of no way to overcome that. But I HAVE observed that if you go back and find some old reddies you gave in the past, and greenie up that reddied post, you will bank an extra reddie for everyone you rub out with a greenie. It can be handy, if you know how to work it.
For examle, with a *** you reddie often, you can go to shim's profile, select zer "reputation," search through it for reddies you gave it, **** can some old ones that do not matter anymore, and thereby bank new ones.
Child groomer. But Ike prolly sucks off dogs, too.
That subject is green ones, Pastafarian. Your technique is stale. Better call your manager!Trumprules » 09 Mar 2023, 1:25 pm » wrote: ↑ Where is the republican budget at. Why hasn't the republican released a budget yet so I can go through it.
I'm not, in any way, saying there isn't waste in spending...be in military or any other area. However, the current fiscal year budget for defense is $797 billion. Biden wants to increase it to "more than $835 billion". That is only a 4.89% increase...Old Stink Finger isn't even keeping up with Bidenflation.Vegas » 09 Mar 2023, 12:58 pm » wrote: ↑
- Why not cut some of the high leadership in the Pentagon? Too many leaders lead to a top-heavy bureaucracy, which leads to inefficiency.
- Cut spending on new weapons. We have incredible technology and machinery now. New tech is unnecessary.
- There is a lot of existing waste in the military, such as overpriced parts, overpriced weapons that don't even work, and inefficient allotment of the funds.
