The jig is up

[smackaholic]

Let's just play along with your little fantasy that we fukked them up. Are we still fukking them up?

Did we fukk up Venezuela too?

Do these places not have the ability to simply say, OK, gringos, we don't have to play along with you anymore. We are gonna stop letting you fukk us up.

What possible reason could there be to make and then keep them dysfunctional?

Would it not benefit all if they were prosperous democracies that we could do business with?

Pull your fukking head out of your marxist ass and try thinking for once.

I'm not saying that we haven't made plenty of boneheaded moves. We have. But these places were corrupt shitholes before we sticked our noses into their affairs.

It is, hence the government shutdown.

The federal government IS enforcing immigration law without the wall, dipshit. Thanks for confirming that the shutdown is about destroying the economy and punishing federal workers and not truly about immigration policy.

You are a stone’s throw from clueless on how a real economy works, even if you threw the stone straight up in the air.

Punishing the taxpayer is the truest way to destroy an economy and has been your party’s bread and butter play for decades, at every level of government.

If most of these federal workers decided to up their lot in life and move over to private sector jobs without the rest of us having to front their replacement, there would be a bigger slice of pie for everyone.

California and other Democratically run states are not. Besides maybe you have read the news about immigrant caravans rushing the border. What a dipshit.

Are you capable of ever posting facts. Your history says no.

[Diego in Seattle]

I have the answer for the illegal immigration the Democrats want. Each registered Democrat house hold hosts an illegal immigrant family on their property and provides food, medical, schooling etc. Starting with Democratic party officials and representatives.

Then when every registered Democrat has a family and there are still more illegal immigrants, doubling up to two families per registered household.

Problem solved.

Sure.

Just as soon as Republicans adopt every adoptable child as a solution to abortion....

[Softball Bat]

Kind of hard to get hispanics to vote Trump or GOP when Trump opens his 2016 presidential campaign by declaring Mexican immigrants to be rapists and murderers. Then, for the ones still stupid enough to vote for him, he deports their non-violent family members.

Gee, I can't imagine why the GOP doesn't attract hispanic voters.

lol

Yep.



These conservatards who are cheering on Trump are cheering on their own demise.

Hell, if I was you, SM, I would enjoy the show.

Just lay back and watch the wrecking ball swing.

This isn't funny, friend. What is totally crazy is that this is just another day in Trump world. The fatass is conspiring with our biggest enemy and the kneepad wearers say BUT BUT BUT he got us two Supreme Court justices and a tax cut!

What a bunch of cowards. This will not end well for the US.

Your lack of facts. Look there is plenty to dislike about the current President. No need to make shit up. But you keep doing it and it makes you look like a whiny 13 year old bitch.

Shutdown’s economic damage: $1 billion a week

As federal workers face the prospect of missed paychecks during the partial government shutdown, their financial reality is rippling into the broader economy.

The roughly 800,000 government employees who are either furloughed or working without pay will be forced to start slashing their consumer spending when paychecks don’t appear this week. Private-sector contractors and other workers tied to the government are already seeing damage from lost business.

And a hit to the nation’s financial standing is on the horizon with a warning from Fitch Ratings on Wednesday about downgrading the government’s credit rating if the shutdown persists.

Estimates from President Donald Trump’s chief economist peg the cost to the overall U.S. economy at about $1.2 billion for each week the shutdown persists. While that’s just 0.05 percentage points off the GDP growth rate, it could be among the factors complicating the administration’s aspiration of reaching sustained 3 percent growth.

The shutdown — now in its 19th day — could also cost the U.S. government more than a billion dollars in lost productivity for 350,000 workers who are forced to stay home.

The government will likely give back pay to furloughed workers in addition to those forced to perform their duties without pay during the partial shutdown. The Obama administration estimated that the payroll cost alone for the 16-day government shutdown in October 2013 cost $2.5 billion, not counting lost revenue from government entities like national parks that were unable to collect fees.

“We’re going to be paying people for half a month of work they didn’t do,” said Tyler Evilsizer, research manager at the bipartisan Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget. Only a quarter of the government is unfunded, so the price tag for this shutdown would take longer to reach the 2013 figure.

“It’s little in the scope of the federal budget, but it’s a lot in the context of, this [shutdown] is completely unnecessary,” Evilsizer added.

The shutdown comes at a time when the U.S. economic outlook was already highly uncertain.

Global growth is slowing, trade tensions are simmering, the effects of the Fed’s steady interest rate hikes are starting to take hold, and the manufacturing and housing sectors are showing some signs of weakness.

All those factors were already leading economists to predict slower growth in 2019 than last year, which still might fall short of Trump’s 3 percent goal.

[Left Seater]

Another Screwy fail. This says nothing about the shutdown being about hurting the economy.

Eliminate a majority of these federal jobs (starting with the IRS), let those workers funnel into the private sector and refund the taxpayers and we’ll spend our own money much more efficiently.

Make the pie bigger for everyone.

US tax law is arbitrarily over complicated.

Dissolve 90% of this worthless bureaucracy, give real earners their money back and let them employ back the 90% to produce something of actual value to society.

Hell if the IRS was a private company, 90% of the jobs would have been automated already.

Tough shit, pal. Hope you got a good CPA.

[L45B]

You’re not quite getting it. You’re in here crying about how the economy is going to shit because the wooden wheels of federal bureaucracy have been clubbed. But I ask you, of the roughly 35-40% that comes out of our wallets to fund said bureaucracy, what real value is it adding to your life??

The answer, at best, is barely anything at all. This shutdown proves just how out bloated the federal government is. And I can’t think of a better time to gut the majority of it.

Most of these people were never working / producing anything to begin with, but maybe now we can actually stop paying them for it.

[Goober McTuber]

Agreed. Flat tax, please.

[Rooster]

Zactly, L45B. When you as a taxpayer do not detect any discernible degradation in the functionality of the government after these weeks of a shutdown, it points to the superfluousness of those who have been laid off. Cut the deadwood. Let them find work in the civilian sector.
