This should free up some money for Wall construction (link) -- 757 01/23/2020 1:04PM

I really don't see the political benefits of this during an election year. -- southdenverhoo 01/23/2020 1:55PM

My bet is that he just spouts stuff he half-heard. I suspect that at Davos -- Seattle .Hoo 01/23/2020 2:19PM

If Dems were smart though, they would already have an ad out there about it -- hoojinks 01/23/2020 2:57PM

Is he doing it more as a signaling device? Many people in Trumps camp -- HooAskedYou 01/23/2020 2:11PM

He's super popular with the "Social Security is not an entitlement" crowd -- Beerman 01/23/2020 2:33PM

My guess is he didn’t understand what he was saying -- WahooMatt05 01/23/2020 2:11PM

I’m not sure why, I just think he’s clueless when it comes to knowing stuff -- WahooMatt05 01/23/2020 3:01PM

Love the label "entitlement" You are correct. I am entitled to a system I -- HiwasseeHoo 01/23/2020 1:37PM

Great point that there is none of your money anywhere for you. -- ryno hoo 01/23/2020 2:26PM

Might as well cut government pensions while we're at ** -- Brown Water 01/23/2020 3:34PM

A feel sorry for people who put so much faith in government -- TomKazanski 01/23/2020 1:57PM

I'm assuming you opted out of Medicare and SSN contributions -- Oregon Hoo 01/23/2020 3:40PM

If only that were an option.... ** -- BocaHoo91 01/23/2020 3:49PM

Seem to recall seeing you COULD -- Oregon Hoo 01/23/2020 4:02PM

I don't think it's either. Now, I'm 50 years old, so it wouldn't make -- BocaHoo91 01/23/2020 4:08PM

Entitlements are going to have to be reformed, or they will one day -- hoolstoptheheels 01/23/2020 1:53PM

Yes, on immigration, all of this anti-immigration stuff is going to result -- HoosWillWin 01/23/2020 3:37PM

This is a great point Boca that the anti-immigrant people fail to take into -- Seattle .Hoo 01/23/2020 1:58PM

I think we should have a much more liberal legal immigration policy. -- BocaHoo91 01/23/2020 3:54PM

Generally agree. But that depends on what "really harsh" means. ** -- Seattle .Hoo 01/23/2020 4:50PM

Good grief. Meant to be a response to Boca's post below. ** -- Seattle .Hoo 01/23/2020 2:00PM

You're mostly correct with SS although high earners subsidize the benefits -- BocaHoo91 01/23/2020 1:47PM

It's only a matter of time before that becomes true of SS also. -- hoolstoptheheels 01/23/2020 1:55PM

Not really. Even with shifting demographics, SS is funded indefinitely -- BocaHoo91 01/23/2020 2:53PM

If deficits don't matter for enormous tax cuts for the wealthy, why on -- southdenverhoo 01/23/2020 1:57PM

Ahhh the scare tactics have begun ** -- TomKazanski 01/23/2020 1:37PM

This is like W really didn’t intend to actually invade Iraq when he asked -- WaxHoo 01/23/2020 1:54PM

Yeah, right, just like he took care of the Wall with those majorities. -- hoolstoptheheels 01/23/2020 1:45PM

Ironically, it sounds like you still have a bad case of ODS a full three -- WahooRQ 01/23/2020 4:29PM

I see. You think Obama would have pried the guns from your cold dead hands -- hoolstoptheheels 01/23/2020 2:07PM

Lucky for us libs can only screw things up one at a time -- TomKazanski 01/23/2020 2:12PM

This was the GOP plan all along. Cut corporate taxes -- WahooMatt05 01/23/2020 1:10PM

I think we should raise corporate taxes to 90% to fund -- BocaHoo91 01/23/2020 1:43PM

Notice that reinvestment negatively spiked at the same time so what really -- Hooooooooooooooo 01/23/2020 2:42PM

And I think you're misreading the chart. Foreign profits can either be -- BocaHoo91 01/23/2020 3:03PM

Yes I interpreted that as US reinvestment. I do know that that most -- Hooooooooooooooo 01/23/2020 10:26PM

Increased R&D is unquestionably good. I would argue stock buybacks -- BocaHoo91 01/24/2020 06:54AM

And Capex increased by 19%. And the corporations paid taxes -- BocaHoo91 01/23/2020 2:55PM

This truth needs to be hammered home again and again by the Democrats along -- Seattle .Hoo 01/23/2020 1:20PM

I don't get why all of the Dem candidates aren't making this a huge talking -- HoosWillWin 01/23/2020 1:26PM

Democratic strategists have generally been pretty poor at communicating -- Hooooooooooooooo 01/23/2020 2:49PM

Because all they focus on Is collusion -- TomKazanski 01/23/2020 2:03PM

He only said it clearly yesterday in Davos, right? I have a hunch -- southdenverhoo 01/23/2020 1:35PM

Ryan said it over a year ago, and the economics point to -- HoosWillWin 01/23/2020 1:39PM

Who? Name sounds familiar but can't place it...:>) -- southdenverhoo 01/23/2020 1:47PM

Yeah, but after the tax cut, that was next on his agenda. It really is -- HoosWillWin 01/23/2020 2:00PM
