I can't resolve your stand here BT, as much as I respect your views, with the fact we're spending BILLIONS on a war, while advocating making the tax cuts permanent.

Is there a precedent I'm unaware of for tax cuts during war time?

And if the "crisis" is as you claim, why are you even having trouble getting your own party on board?

Tax cuts should be made permament as war should not be permanent. Social Security and whatever other "piggy banks" have been systematically raided over the years by both parties (which goes back to the core value I have which states vote for what is ON the bill, not what's added). As for my Team, which I admit to not consulting regularly, they are spending a lot on this war. However, as we have all agreed, they are locked in a position of having to do so now, as pulling out would be even more disatrous. There is no precedent for it, but there should be. Overall growth creates more money to be taxed more times, which creates more tax revenue to fund things such as war.

I don't work for the Repubs, so getting my own party on board hasn't been my top priority. It's a dicey issue and those who need to be reelected are treading much more carefully. Those who need the PR are railing against to as to appear as "independent " Thinkers. For these vary same reasons, I believe the concern over the draft and starting a war with Iran are highly overblown.

Hey dumbass. The problems with Socialist Security existed long before Bill Clinton or George W. Bush. Social Security was fucked when most of us here were being pushed out of our mommies cunts in the 60's.

Well I thought when Social Security Insurance was initially set up under ol' FDR it was meant to be a trust fund of sorts for the WORKING AMERICAN, then at some point the Gov't began spending the money as it came in...

Clinton had it under control with surpluses growing during and out of his admin, then Bush came in and raided the whole thing borrowing and spending and giving to the rich....

The "problems" were that elderly retirees were living out their years in record poverty in the 60's, something we haven't really had a problem with for 40 years.

Explain to me how Social Security is "fucked?" Maybe you can do a better job than Dubya.
