Think about this, when the top marginal tax rate was 70-90% in the 40s through the 70s how was the economy?

pretty shit

how do you think stagflation started

turns out government spending can't stop it

especially when ww2 made the economy great

so did korea war

so did vietnam war

oh wait america is nolonger in any war now

fucking stagflation

If government spending is a bad thing then why do republicans advocate for massive military spending that is blowing up the deficit?

How do you define military spending

You do realize Trump increased spending for veterans

which is classified as military spending

Trump did increase spending for cybersecurity so we won't get computer attacks

Trump has also increased spending on the military as a whole

which is classified as military spending

Trump did increase spending on technology

which is whoa

i thought not a bad thing

If we actually cut military spending, the EU would be butthurt as fuck

We need to spend money on our people, not spend it on invading other countries that didn’t attack us

"waah what if russia invades me"

"plz america"

"i dont want to spend more on military"

"i want to use the excess surplus to spend on my people, please protect us"

We could cut military spending by 100 billion and we’d still be spending more than double what China is spending

Or Russia

how is that relevant again

You could cut 100 million spending and foreign countries would be butthurt that america might not protect them because "they're withdrawing troops away"

Because the massive military spending and the unnecessary wars in the Middle East are costing the US big time

"unnecessary war"

wtf

maybe dont tell the communists to take over the middle east

We didn’t need to overthrow Saddam Hussein

and we could have a thousand mia khalifa

today

thx u very much

dont forget the iranian Shah was in the process of westernizing his country and becoming a regional superpower

BUT NOOO

The communists and socialists has to get his voices out

and instead the clergy took over and fucked over the entire region of iran and the middle east
