I have many reasons why I don’t like the Republican’s budget. I’m on medicare and don’t like their voucher system. They did nothing to cut the military, they would expand it. They also play the same spending game of “reducing spending increases,” not actually reducing government spending.
Unfortunately the Democrats come along with tax increases and do nothing to restrict spending, to the contrary, they expand it. So once more, it’s politics as usual; Frick and Frack trying to convince us their way is the best way.

Wow Robby Rogers is the biggest liar on gocomics.
Winning with 51% of the vote as the incumbent is a trouncing? Ha

Most Americans think taxes are high enough or too high already. Fact.
So that’s lie, lie and then another lie.
Good job Radical Robbie.

Another elderly hypochondriac who thinks, just because he paid in for his Medicare and Social Security, he deserves to get something back. Those were TAXES, not investments, and Aristotle proves it is immoral to get back one cent of those TAXES, when the US is under threat of Communist-creeping-socialist-sharia, and needs every one of those cents so it can pay the defence CEOs enough so they can develop the advanced Star Trek/Star Wars weapons systems the US military so desperately needs if it is to defend this country without running up any debilitating deficits, or else you’ll end up only being able to buy one brand of niqab for your wives.

Over $6 trillion in new debt in the last 4 years, more than what was accumulated in the first 224 years of the country. At almost zero interest rates, the interest on the debt amounts to about 25% of the countries real income. Wait until interest rates increase and it takes 50% of the income.

The Federal Government has already spent $30.5 billion MORE this year than at this time last year. The house of cards will fall no matter what.

How can anyone really want “Obamacare?” Nobody has read it yet, so nobody knows what’s in it, as Queen Pelosi once commented. The masses who support Obama are being spoon fed what they think they want. Careful… there’s an awful aftertaste coming!

@Ken M
You are right! Count me as one of those who do not want Obamacare. I want universal healthcare for the benefit of my children and grandchildren. Why should they overpay for lesser outcomes as we do today?
