[QUOTE="ctrl, post: 1302448, member: 13378"]Cuba just very recently, like in a couple of weeks ago, started allowing private property and businesses. There's not much comparison. I wrote a response in regards to politicians' tax plans and the political bend this thread is taking, but deleted it. (all proposed tax plans are redistributionist in one direction or another, anyone who says otherwise is lying) The debt and deficits need to be controlled, definitely, but doing so at the wrong time in the wrong way will cause many more problems and will simply worsen the current situation. The reality of the situation is not as simple as cutting whatever agency or program you think would affect you the least (and just might affect that neighbor you don't like for XYZ reason), or which one sounds better to the audience. The world is a place of big numbers. GDP is a very big number, the deficit is a very big number for some very clear reasons that could be corrected if there was enough political and reasonable will. It wasn't that long ago that we had a budget surplus...[/QUOTE]
