The United States is on the path to financial catastrophe.
Continuing to spend massively more than we take in each year-adding on to our public debt-cannot go on forever. The United States is on the path to financial catastrophe unless we put partisanship aside and produce constructive and honest solutions to stabilize our debt.

Utah's workforce model is lifting scores of people out of poverty.
Переглядів 75413 годин тому
Utah is a leader in lifting people out of poverty and into the workforce-in large part due to our model of consolidating workforce development and social safety net programs into a single state entity. During today's HELP Committee hearing, I highlighted my legislation that would allow other states to implement Utah's model to better help individuals build self-reliance and find meaningful work.

On D-Day, Allied forces embodied the often-repeated scripture, "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends." We must never forget their sacrifice 80 years ago, which helped liberate an entire continent and secured freedom around the world.

    Romney is cut from the same cloth as Ross Perot. Both are money men, who would do well in the jobs Janet Yellen has held. But their egos tell them they should be in a position of broader leadership than that, when they really should just stick to what they are good at.

    Senator Romney is a great American and level-headed on this topic, BUT he's mostly inaccurate on this economics. There has never been a public financial crisis in his lifetime (other than when the Republicans made default a possibility just by willing it so), but there have been several cause by private debt. The US has never had to pay off the entirety of its debts through cuts in spending during Mr Romney's lifteime (we certainly lowered taxes during it), because the US economy has grown of the previous peaks innspending. Besides, most public debt and the associated interest payments are going directly or indirectly to US households. It's kinda like running a small business that, because you pay yourself more than the business can afford, you have to dump more money back into the business. What's actually seeing more USD leave the economy is our trade deficit. The US should be taking on more public debt to invest in energy and tech for AIG, security of that technology, and re-establishing the US as the exporter of high-end aerospace, transportation, defense, and consumer electronics. It takes time, money, smarts, and effort to be the best in a competitive world. We're the best positioned to fill that role.

I have no problem signing the check for five billion because America has made this possible. If one day they need more to lower the deficit, I’ll sign that too. If the other 800 companies paid what they should there would be no need for individuals to pay any income taxes.” He got a big round of applause for the shareholders.

    Not one word he said is true. The government does not find itself through taxes or borrowing, the government spends money into existence and the deficit can go on forever no issue. What we need to worry about is does the nation have the resources available for a strong and vibrant economy and keep inflation in check.

It’s very capable In Janet Yellin.. trump was the one that blew the deficit up with $7.6 trillion in debt, giving tax break to the rich that they didn’t need.. and now says he’s gonna do it again if he’s elected, the middle class and the poor will suffer.. and so will the country because that means billions of dollars being taken out of the system in tax breaks for people that don’t need them..
