I’ve changed my avatar four times since joining. I have several.
Like this one any better?
You had a Star of David on the last one, so it seem pretty coincidental you would change after someone called you rabbi!
Get more creative this one is boring!
that is a star of david. I’ve been getting called Rabbi, Goyim, ■■■ Lover etc for months.
I doubt anyone ever accused you of being goyim. Honk Honk!
Reading then isn’t your strong suit.
What’s the old saying? That’s right, bull feces…
He said he owned it.
The people were with him.
The media was not.
When the press got too rough he caved.
Which of those points would you contest?
The national debt is number one. Says DNI and Pentagon.
And the vast majority of Americans don’t and wont’ give a damn unless and until it all caves in.
Conservatives fought hard to get it under control and were continually hounded to hell and back for doing so because nobody wants to give up or even make slight cutback in their gov’t checks, food stamps, or other support.
Ok, so I don’t care you pick one. Is the national debt congresses fault, or the president’s fault, hmmmmm?
Because it’s not going to be the president’s fault during the Obama administration and congresses fault during the Trump administration.
Btw, I was pissed when we began the national debt death spiral during the Reagan administration and have been pissed about it to this day.
Most of it can be directly attributed to LBJ and FDR.
Snort. 
See? This is one of your posts that deserve nothing but derision.

The left doesn’t believe in a resonsible fiscal policy most of them subscribe to Modern Monetary Policy. That’s what their looney monetary policy ideas are based on.
That deficit spending doesn’t matter and that national debt doesn’t matter.
This thread shows the typical problem that plagues most discussions about an unsustainable national debt.
People will spend endless cycles trying to convince each other who is responsible for the debt.
The debt has been growing for longer than any of us have been alive. A steady upward trajectory. Both Dem and GOP. Executive and legislative. Doesn’t matter who is majority or minority. It continues to rise. While we pretend to assess blame, it continues to rise.
Who was worse? Who was better? Is anyone “better” if it continues to rise?
Truth is, it’s out of control and nobody knows how to stop it. Nobody has the courage to stand up to the governmental dynamics that propagate it. The only answer anyone in government pretends to have is to spend even more to buy off the electorate. Medicare for all? More military? Free college? Infrastructure projects? Reparations? Tax cuts?
Spending growth needs to stop. But our current governmental dynamics will not allow that.
The title of the thread says Death Spiral. Soon it will change to a plunge.

I may add that to my list. But in hard times, Americans may adopt other methods… like the infamous left hand method.

One will never get someone to agree to inflict fiscal pain if they subscribe to MMT. The debt is not a problem to begin with.

Not if you know how to properly use nature!
You are free to offer your criticisms of anything I have to say. You are not free to personally insult me or name call, not just as a matter of social decency and civility, but in compliance to the forum rules you agreed to when you registered.
Then why did Trump make such a stink about it during the campaign, and only now that it’s swelling under his “leadership” is it suddenly not a problem?
