Nice personal attacks. Next time try engaging rather than lashing out. If you can't answer his question, it's okay to admit it.
Well if you read his previous post, he attacked the poster first, I jab him back. Luckily it hasn’t reached the inflammatory levels you and Horza regularly get to though.

Military spending isn’t our issue. We spend an incredible amount on welfare type programs. From 2001-2017 our debt rose from 5.8 to 20.2 trillion. Of that, 1.9 trillion is due to the war on terror. That leaves 12.5 trillion unaccounted for.

Where did the money go during this time?

Obama’s bail out to the banks amounted to 16.1 trillion dollars. Most of this is still owed to the banks to be paid out between now and 2050. 4.6 trillion was paid out, the rest goes on our balance sheet as debt.

Whining about military spending in the face of this is ludicrous.

Keep in mind that military spending is 50% of discretionary spending. Not 50% of our total budget. Discretionary spending only accounts for like 25% of our total budget. Almost all of our budget is ‘mandatory spending’ which is almost entirely welfare programs such as social security, snap, Medicare, Medicaid, unemployment etc....
Who is whining. It's your budget not mine.

You can do a debt ratio too if you want, I'm versatile. It's not useful but we all have our kinks.

spending:gdp first plz
“Too”? You don’t have a first point. There is no decent financials. We sink deeper into debt every year on the backs of the elites bleeding the country as their personal pay pig. The same people you are here fighting for every day. Do I need to repeat that we’ve basically gone from 5 trillion in debt to 20 trillion in debt since 1996. From 2018-2020 we will have added about 3 trillion. Our entire debt was 5 trillion in 1996. And you’re talking about having a good debt ratio somewhere in there? Lmao

“I am a most unhappy man. I have unwittingly ruined my country. A great industrial nation is now controlled by its system of credit. We are no longer a government by free opinion, no longer a government by conviction and the vote of the majority, but a government by the opinion and duress of a small group of dominant men.

~ Woodrow Wilson 1919


But that's all silly conspiracy theories, right? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

If you liberals researched half as much as you run your mouths (fingers) you might learn something.

I made some great points about the debt he has 0 answers for and it doesn’t effect him one bit. Do liberals like that just imagine you can just ignore reality and it will go away?

In addition to spending on its own military build-up, the United States provided large loans to the Allied countries, helping to prevent the economic collapse of Britain and France. By the end of the war, the United States had become a creditor nation for the first time in its history.
