    throughout the ceiling talks, Boehner stormed out, Mcconnell could no longer comprehend why taxes have been even on the table and the two republicans and Tea occasion favored a credit downgrade than somewhat pay a bill. this is risk-free to assert Liberals comprehend while a bill must be paid. Republicans call that wealth redistribution. if this is so my "wealth" gets redistributed to my loan business corporation each and each month. yet i do no longer think of that they had rejoice with if I advised them i'm able to spend my funds greater effective than they are in a position to. particular i ought to apply the money for something else incredibly on an identical time as the interest and arrears acquire till i'm getting kicked out. Then carry a "debt ceiling communicate" on an identical time as my credit status takes a fulfillment. that's economics. funds is scarce and this is utilized for the two one factor or the different. no longer the two. this is the classic "weapons as against butter" concept. And it incredibly works. See a liberal does comprehend economics.

    I consider this question humorous, obviously coming from a supply-side adherent. Trickle-down has a spectacular 30+ year record of failure, and yet y'all insist that it is the answer to all of our problems...

    Most economic theory you're referring to originates from a liberal humanist background.

    I have yet to encounter any substantial amount of liberals or conservatives in this country that consider the human factor in their economic ditherings. Both sides seem intent on selling different brands of slavery and seem incredulous when you reject both.
