  1. Inflate our way out of it? Just stop paying it? We got the 11th highest debt to gdp in the world. Debt payments are slated to be 1.4 trillion in 2033, our revenue now is 4.9 trillion and it won't grow much, maybe to 5.5? That's 25%. Right now we're at 15. There's gonna be a reckoning if we don't deal with it.
  2. Wasnt regarding social spending, was because you said you dont want to pay down the national debt. Was saying we have to fix the deficit problem. You said no thanks. We have probably a 10 year window where we can begin to fix it before its going to be impossible. Only reason I brought up kids is because they will be the ones holding the bag.
  3. Gotta pay down the debt eventually. Or just reset. Not sure what the most palatable option is.
  4. Our tax to GDP ratio is closer to Mexicos than Europe. 40 years ago we easily had the highest standard of living in the world, now not so much. Our social programs are not sustainable and we've looted the countries coffers to pay for ponzi schemes and wars. Our Healthcare system is broken. Need more tax revenue, less spending, fix Healthcare. That is just to start.
  5. Yeah that was me in 2020. Not a big Biden fan, but Trump would have been a disaster. I really want a party to actually run on reducing spending and increase revenue, and do it. So many things need to be done. Raise taxes, cut entitlements, reform Healthcare, reduce the deficit and push for meaningful agricultural and water usage reforms and worldwide (hint: developing nations have to be included) environmental reform. I know I probably smoked too much weed and it's a pipe dream.
  6. "For example, seven e-mail chains concern matters that were classified at the Top Secret/Special Access Program level when they were sent and received. These chains involved Secretary Clinton both sending e-mails about those matters and receiving e-mails from others about the same matters. There is evidence to support a conclusion that any reasonable person in Secretary Clinton’s position, or in the position of those government employees with whom she was corresponding about these matters, should have known that an unclassified system was no place for that conversation. In addition to this highly sensitive information, we also found information that was properly classified as Secret by the U.S. Intelligence Community at the time it was discussed on e-mail." Yup, no such thing as privilege.
  7. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2016/aug/20/us-navy-sailor-jailed-for-taking-photos-of-classified-areas-of-nuclear-submarine https://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/maddowblog/justice-dept-prosecutes-woman-mishandling-classified-docs-rcna16111 I only looked for a few seconds, but these people are screwed for life courtesy of being a felon. They definitely deserve it, they broke the law. Just like Pence/Biden/Hillary/Trump. Put 'em all in orange jumpsuits.
  8. The words you are looking for are "the priviledged". Peons that don't demonstrate intent still get crucified.
  9. Yeah I thought that was obvious from the last sentence of my post... Russian officers used to execute villagers with their pistols, hence their fear of pistols vs. Rifles.
  10. Russia had its own Afghanistan?? Where was it?? I will say when I was in Afghanistan the villagers didn't give a crap about rifles or grenade launchers, but the second you pulled out your pistol they became very cooperative. I guess thats one lasting impression from Russia.
  11. https://www.tomshardware.com/news/jedi-survivor-prelaunch-vram-rtx-4090 YUCK.
  12. The real suits will be white. Those are just design prototypes.
  13. Holy christ that man is an idiot.
  14. 23% of Americans think they would beat that dog in a fight !
  15. It's a bit expensive but I highly recommend glendronich allardice 18. It has the peat you would expect from a speyside distillery, but muted with a nice backdrop of sweetness from sherry which is present but not overwhelming. ETA: The 18 is definitely the best of their lineup. 13 is not enough sherry, 15 is too much. 18 is the baby bear of the bunch - juuuuust right.
  16. The days where you have to steal mags from the bookstore or stay up late and sneak some skinimax are over.
  17. That was for all of old fogies that played Super Mario Kart but never owned a 64.
  18. Secret of the forest is great. Chrono cross has some great piano scores too.
