Could pay for government spending with taxes.
- WalterBright 3y agoYes, and if that was done, there'd be no inflation. Of course, then people would be aware of those huge costly tax increases, and the government would be unable to shift the blame.
- seanmcdirmid 3y agoWe could cut spending on our massively bloated military and stop with the tax cuts for rich. Republicans are hardly fiscally conservative these days, we have a choice between the “tax and spend” party and the “spend and cut taxes” party. A lot of our problems simply come from low interest rates, and our inability to raise them as the economy got better; now we are stuck with raising interest rates because we basically broke the lever. Both parties are at fault here, I guess we are just getting what we asked for.
