Find another reason

If you are betting on decreasing the national debt anytime soon, you are betting on the wrong horse, and by the by, we have been running a continual national deficit since 1957. Clinton came the closest to putting a stop to that, but even he knew, and said, it was because of the new technologies aroused by the Internet. Pays to be lucky.

Just the facts:

“The first seven years of the G.W. Bush presidency increased the deficit by almost twice as much as the 32 years from JFK through G.H.W. Bush combined.” (“U.S. Federal Deficits, Presidents, and Congress” — Stephen Bloch)

“The biggest accrued-debt-per-year figures are associated with B.H. Obama, G.W. Bush, G.H.W. Bush, Ronald Reagan, Gerald Ford, FDR, Bill Clinton, and Jimmy Carter, in that order.” (Stephon Bloch)

“A vote for a Republican candidate will put the brakes on this spending.” (Paul Gleason)

Respectfully, what would make you think that for even a moment?

We need to increase gross national product and decreased national deficit spending, and in time, we will be out from under. Both candidates understand this. So it is my opinion that the economic arguments are moot. Find some other reason to vote for the best candidate possible.

“I always vote for the person that I think will hurt the country the least.” (Willson Bloch)

Yeesh. I’ve heard variants. “Lesser of two evils.” Voting for evil is voting for evil. Vote your conscience and let the chips fall where they may.

Let’s start acting like we are in this together.

There is no enemy.
