By SoundOffSister / July 21, 2011 /

While this country is involved in discussions (held mostly in secret) concerning our ever increasing debt, and ever increasing spending, perhaps we should look to what the liberals in Canada did.  Yes, you read that correctly, the liberals.

Go ahead, tax the rich … let’s run the numbers

By Steve McGough / April 13, 2011 /

I heard a radio ad today promoting Gov. Dannel Malloy’s (D-Conn.) budget plan which mentioned some sort of “Do the Math” website. OK, let’s do some federal math. If you confiscated every dime from US taxpayers with returns that showed an adjusted gross income (AGI) of more than $1,000,000, how many days could the federal…

Higher taxes, reduced deficits and Milton Friedman

By SoundOffSister / November 28, 2010 /

While Congress debates whether to increase taxes on the “rich” (yes, allowing the Bush tax cuts to expire is a tax increase), it it worth reflecting on the words of the late economist, Milton Friedman.

The stark reality of our national debt

By SoundOffSister / September 20, 2010 /

Reams have been written about extending, or not, the Bush tax cuts. Many in Washington claim, now that the election is upon us, that something must be done to reduce the deficit, and, we are presumably led to believe that increasing taxes on the very wealthy is the answer.

Matthews: Stop bitching about the deficit and name some cuts – Congressman Ryan: OK, fasten your seat belt

By Jim Vicevich / July 27, 2010 /

This is a perfect example of why, when a Congressman knows his stuff, he can handle even the dumbest questions. Matthews demands, name one item you will cut from the budget. Ryan, I’ll name more than one. Here we go.

Media buries the real math of health care reform

By Steve McGough / March 21, 2010 /

Democrats have laughingly suggested we will lower costs, increase services and ensure everyone is covered all while spending less and not increasing adding to yearly deficits or the debt. Pipe dreams may come true, but the New York Times tells us about the real math in an Op Ed piece … and conveniently buries it.

Intergenerational Theft – Deficit, the Obama year(s)

By Jim Vicevich / March 17, 2010 /

Just a great analysis by Ed Morrissey on the Obama year in office and the resulting deficit. It break down the difference in debt since the Democrats took control … how the Democrats played “cat and mouse” with Bush before the FY 09 budget was enacted … and how one man and one Congress robbed…
