United States Austerity: Government now spending less nominally than Bush

[akphidelt]

In simple numbers for them....

GDP is 100 and spending is 25....spending is 25% of GDP

GDP is 130 and spending is 30...spending is 23% of GDP

lower percent but still more spending.

Basic math

Geez wabash!! I wanted to see how long they would go without understanding it!

Its hilarious. Basic math says during a recession GDP decreases and spending can stay the same while spending to GDP will increase. Deficits will also increase. Therefore spending to GDP an debt to GDP will always increase during bad economic times with normal or stagnant expenditures. It's really a meaningless statistic. The only thing that matters is real growth. But they use these % because it makes it seem like the government is spending more when in reality it's because GDP is decreasing or growing slowly. They are really dumb people.

All that spending on government education and what do we have to show for it?

Fratfraud - and millions of mathematically-challenged, historically-illiterate Obots just like him.

Pathetic!

Lol, he brings up public education enrollment in an argument about government spending. Hilarious. This dude is a loser.

Which you don't have in this socialist economy. You say the US is not Greece..well the GDP says it is. And France, and the "rest of the (socialist) world who doesn't think like me" you so badly want to emulate.

Keynesian Big Government economics = MASSIVE FAILURE!

Government spending on education is out of control, with nothing to show for it except record-low reading, math and science scores, and indoctrination factories spitting out economically-illiterate ignoramuses like you.

The GDP says we're nothing like Greece. You are really dumb. Austerity fails every time it's tried. It's why only uneducated conservatives want it.

How does it feel to be wrong about absolutely everything?

Show per capita GDP. The only thing that matters. You keep showing very meaningless statistics.

fratfraud: The US is not Greece!

Reality: Yes it is!

Massive burgeoning debt and anemic growth are the hallmarks of every tyrannical socialist shit hole ("the rest of the world that doesn't think like me") and fratfraud and his Marxist party want to be just like them! hno:

Austerity sucks, been telling you that for awhile. Too bad we can't be like Big Government Reagan.

Aki, I admire you're grit, but you're dealing with People who don't accept a Birth Certificate as Proof of Birth, so they are not going to accept your graphs and other factual data. They don't care about Facts. They care about their sick, twisted agenda, and that's it. They will make excuses to not recognize facts, because only Brietbart, The Blaze, Fox News, and crazy places like that can be factual in their sick world. Good Luck Dude.

Like I sit back and just find it amazing. Like these people exist that literally do not care about facts. They are just purely ideologically driven. It's fun to watch how they all have the same argument. It's a cult. Like AceBB who came in and actually looked dumber than Sheriff Joe. I find it more entertaining than anything else because it doesn't matter if they believe me or not, I understand what goes on in the educated world of money, banking, and economics and these people's theories aren't even considered. Basically just conservative and libertarian blogosphere shit. Just hilarious. But we are fighting a losing battle here. These people will never become smarter.

It's like giving a 13 year old a credit card and expecting miracles.

KEYNESIAN ECONOMICS FAILED!

Time for the grownups to take over.

Yea, we should get the grown ups from big government reagans administration. They say we need to spend more and a lot more, lol. You have a failed ideology that only loons on the blogosphere believe. Do you ever wonder why educated people think differently than you?

 

[festeringZit]

Fratfraud has the dumbest guy in here ( duhhfinch) and the vile gutter rat guesser coming to give him a reacharound comnenting on something they know zero about. Fucking comedy gold.

You are best buddies and agree with everything Canadian Joe says. You're probably the least credible person in this entire thread, and that says a lot. Just a pathetic dude. Joe C actually has more credibility than you because he at least puts his stupid thoughts out there, you just sit on the sidelines and troll like a little bitch.

Denial is your enemy, not your friend.

Sober up, spenda-holic!

Why Obamanomics Has Failed

http://online.wsj.com/news/articles/SB10001424052748704629804575325233508651458

"The contrast with President Reagan's antirecession and pro-growth measures in 1981 is striking. Reagan reduced marginal and corporate tax rates and slowed the growth of non-defense spending. Recovery began about a year later. After 18 months, the economy grew more than 9% and it continued to expand above trend rates."

Psst, someone tell the Kenyan and fratfraud: You can't grow the economy when your obsession is growing government and spreading the wealth.

Oh you found an article on the Internet. It must be true and the rest of the intelligent world must be wrong, lol. You are a retard but at least you put your retardation out for everyone to see unlike your best buddy festeringZit who trolls like a bitch. Kudos for that.
