  2. Janet Masiello---> Sure, I love going to the library or a museum, without having to PAY to get in. I also LOVE going to the park, the zoo, and beaches, without having to PAY to get in. Parking, ok. I LOVE even more, healthcare for kids, that parents won't go into debt paying for, and for old folks. Like hospice? You know, those 'SOCIALISTIC programs' me, YOU/YOUR FAMILY USE EVERY DAY? Like roads and highways?

  3. Stephen Anderson---> Both parties. No more Mitch, Linsey, Chuck or Nancy. I want people planning for our future. Not people planning for their retirement...

  4. Stephen Anderson---> Cortez should take Nikki Haley's job. Abrams, not sure yet...

  5. Socialistic Programs (aka handouts, welfare-GOD's hand): Public Education/Public Parks, Beaches, Zoos/Public Museums, Libraries Police, Fire, and Emergency Services/Social Security/Medicare, Medicaid Public Subways, Metro Systems, Buses, and Light Rails/Sidewalks, Roads, & Highways The US Postal Service-all those 'freebies' that only people like me enjoy...

  6. Janet Masiello---> And uneducated Trump voters believe those stats started two years ago, instead of 9. When it began to DROP under Obama and CONTINUED under Trump? Unless you have a LINK (as I do/Labor Dept). BTW, Didn't the 1%/corporations just get the 'largest handout in history?' To quote Trump? They were SUPPOSE to pay higher taxes-but now pay MUCH less? aka free handouts? And YOU use SOCIALISTIC program all the time! Wait, do you read? Go to parks? Use S-Chip? Use the highway? You know, socialistic programs that are free to use? And I'm sure you'd lose your mind if you/fam had to pay money to ENTER a library?

  7. Peter Gobkoswki---> Wait, you can't use FACTS. That's cheating. We rely on OPINIONS in Trumps' era...lol

  8. Peter Gobkoswki---> Ok, but I would delete your last post. It's SOUNDS like a contradiction, "based on the facts." Respectfully. "Gillum shrunk private business employment from over 56% down to 46%..." that's not good, but... "the employment rate is 9.7% lower than the national average..." "Taxes went up 1.5% since Gillum took office..."

  9. Peter Gobkoswki---> Now, you're a liar! Cali has the WORLD'S 6th largest economy! https://www.wsj.com/articles/jerry-browns-legacy-a-6-1-billion-budget-surplus-in-california-1515624022 https://www.politifact.com/california/statements/2017/jun/22/antonio-villaraigosa/does-california-have-6th-largest-economy-world-and/

  10. Peter Gobkoswki---> So, which states AREN'T in debt? 5 (NY, #25/CA, #30)? Which states have great infrastructure? None? Wait, who just gave the 1%/corporation a 1.9 trillion dollar tax break? Republicans? Who has CRASHED the world economy? A Republican. What governor KILLED his state bc of 'trickle-down' bs? Another Republican. Who only cares about the KKK, Neo-Nazi and White Supremacist vote? Republicans. Stick to talking about state and debt. You might win that argument...

  11. PS What is the biggest reason for state debt? Housing? Medical? Trade? Internal? External? If you went ONLY by debt-America is NOT the greatest country in the world. It would be China or Russia. Get the point? BTW When most of the 1% live in 3 or 4 states, shouldn't taxes be higher? Or if the pop is greater? (CA, NY, FL, TX)

  12. "Do you liberals not know what debt is?" From the top... debt: money that one person/entity owes or is required to pay to another, as a result of a loan/other financial transaction... Government debt: is the debt owed by a government (so all but 5 states?). Government deficit; the difference between government receipts and spending in a single year. (so yeah, we know?)

  13. Peter Gobkoswki---> 1. There's a way to prove it. Do you have a LINK? OR, just your OPINION. (bc I have one) 2. Before or after he HAD to save America, by bailing out banks? That Trump just scratch out of law with an E.O.? (nice try) 3. Yeah, I did. But you're ASSuming I didn't. (stop making an ASS of yourself) 4. If Obama's economy WAS going to CRASH-it's be 3/how many years AFTER he left office? (you SO full of SHT)

  15. Peter Gobkoswki---> Say I agree with you (new topic)? The war in Vietnam had nothing to do with it, right??? Our GDP wasn't as high nor booming/stock market/corporations/employment/trading/importing/exporting? SO, what does THAT have to do with the crash in 2008? Aside that Bush Jr tax break? Or Obama bailing out banks, housing, auto, etc in 2009? And I'm sure, tariffs/buy-backs, will have nothing to do with it, right???
    1
  16. PS I don't agree with you overall. Banks did not have the power they have now. If those bonds came do, it would slow down our growth-not crash it. Stock buy-backs are inflating the stock market. Once they cash out, then we'll crash. Or; buying sht today for $2, it will cost $5 tomorrow because of tariffs/or the lost of businesses (12 bil to farmers)/companies moving elsewhere (Harley). Now, if you want to WIN a debate, as you have chosen a new topic each time I rebuffed your old, just say so. You win, have a nice day.

  17. Peter Gobkoswki---> When did I say; "debt by California and NY is good?" Before or AFTER you deleted your last post? "why do democrats want to raise taxes?" Maybe bc REPUBLICANS just gave out a 1,9 trillion dollar tax break? "Why do dem say $12 billion for farmers/bad-bc of a Republicans' tariffs VS SAVING ALL OF AMERICA??? But you know what, never mind. You're right. You win. Have a great day.

  18. PS "Warren Buffett says stock buy-backs are a good thing for the economy." Odd, you didn't add that LINK. BTW Your LINK is an OPINION piece (.com). Mine wasn't (.org) https://www.christopherchantrill.com/ But again. You win. Have a great day.

  19. Peter Gobkoswki--->When the words are coming out his OWN mouth/posting shweets from his OWN shwitter acct-yeah, it's fake news, somehow... Even FoxSued is starting to call him out on his BS. But sure, CNN is an OPINION channel... Like our 'lyin President?' And thanks. Now I don't have to GIVE you a win. You earned it. Enjoy your day.

  20. PS Wait. So he/his company HAVEN'T be been buying it back? Just saying they would, if the price drops to an odd low? That's not quite the same as other companies (IBM, Apple, etc) who have, since that tax break? But let's not split hairs? And, did you READ the rest of it? If you did, I think an apology is in order. "Stock buybacks have been one factor helping fuel the market run to record highs in 2018..." Which I said, right? No matter.

  21. Quote: "If those bonds came do, it would slow down our growth-not crash it. Stock buy-backs are inflating the stock market. Once they cash out, then we'll crash." But you still have a great day.

  22. "Yeah, you also said .com is fake, remember, and .org is real when I pasted my other link." Quote: "Your LINK is an OPINION piece (.com). Mine wasn't (.org)" Apology accepted... Have a great day

  23. Peter Gobkoswki---> I'd doubt that. As MOST your 'talking point,' mirror Rep/conservative/right-wing talking points. But you have made me a Dem for life. As I can point to five post, where you FLAT OUT lied, when you didn't have too. The NY/CA debt was the start. But either way, have a wonderful day. (aka #BeBest?)
    1
  24. Peter Gobkoswki---> "you don't even remember your own links and talking points" I can't scroll up, and look? "and you can't even comprehend what I wrote." While rebuffing each point you made? "If that is indicative of the democratic party, low IQ" I don't recall, insulting you OR your intelligence. "then I have to vote for the Republican party." Vote how you feel. And still, have a wonderful day (7x I've followed, #BeBest)...

  25. PS When I'm wrong, I apologize (like, if I MISQUOTE someone-twice). Also, I'm not going to FLAT OUT lie, as I don't have to (like, CITIES in NY/CA have some of the highest taxes around). FACTS/TRUTH seem to be OVERRATED in the Trump era and Rep SEEM to be leading that charge (immigration, crime, economy)...
