The Tea Party is going to try and impose an AUSTERITY program!
   

But WITHOUT the tax increases!

In economics, austerity is a policy of deficit-cutting, lower spending, and a reduction in the amount of benefits and public services provided.<1> Austerity policies are often used by governments to reduce their deficit spending<2> while sometimes coupled with increases in taxes to pay back creditors to reduce debt.<3>

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Austerity


This is a recipe for disaster!


If you put the word austerity in Google news you will see that the European programs are causing DEFLATION and loss of GDP and hurting growth. There is NO good news even in the UK where the media is trying to spin it!


It's IMPOSSIBLE to cut debt by cutting spending while at the same time your cutting taxes!

IMPOSSIBLE! But that's what the conservative teabag filth is going to try and do!

DO NOT expect ANY help from the media in explaining this to the public. We're on our own!

The media will sit there like potted plants and let the conservatives tell huge lies about the economy while our country sinks into a nightmare.

The Teabag plan economic plan will.........

Add 4 trillion dollars to the debt!
INCREASE the unemployment rate by helping corporations out-source jobs.
INCREASE the unemployment rate by cutting government jobs.
INCREASE the long term debt by selling off state assets for pennies on the dollar.
Allow extraction blood suckers to feed off the neck of the country!


It's the misery index and it won't help anyone but the ultra rich and the bondholders!

I can't believe the American voter is this STUPID!

This makes ZERO sense.

If you reduce spending the amount of revenue required goes down.

if the economic engine ramps up tax receipts rise with it.

But wait!

They get even dumber:

If tea party leaders jet around the country in a plane donated by a big GOP contributor, are they still "grassroots" activists? It's a question some local tea partiers would like to put to the leaders of the Tea Party Patriots, one of the nation's largest tea party umbrella groups, which claims to represent 15 million people. Over the past week, national coordinators Mark Meckler and Jenny Beth Martin have been "flying for freedom" and "landing for liberty" across the country in a private jet they've dubbed "Patriot One" to help rally the tea party troops before the election.

4. I'm in! As long as they don't touch any CEO salaries or bonuses. That's the important thing

Suddenly government spending is on CEO salary and bonuses?!?!?

Am I reading this right?

7. Don't expect them to understand Keynesian economics
   
It looks like Wisconsin is going to get a governor who doesn't have a college degree and who is unlikely to read more than the letters on the remote that take him to Faux.

His running mate believes same sex marriage is between a man and a table...I think she heard somebody talking about a table and Chas' and got very confused.

We understand it is a failure and a bunch of power mad liberals use it as an excuse to steal from taxpayers.

But WITHOUT the tax increases!   (Good! We're taxed enough already, you idiot.)
In economics, austerity is a policy of deficit-cutting, lower spending, and a reduction in the amount of benefits and public services provided.   (And,....why do we have to cut the spending, lower the deficit and stop gubberment growth?! Do you understand?!)
<1> Austerity policies are often used by governments to reduce their deficit spending     (Something your lord zero does not comprehend for sure.)
<2> while sometimes coupled with increases in taxes to pay back creditors to reduce debt.    (So?! Raise taxes because the lord zero borrowed so much money that didn't do jack for the Country. All the while telling us they needed to do something quick before the economy collapsed?!?! Yes, he is a FAIL!)

Who is the tea party going to pass any legislation? They don't have their own party candidates. They simply endorse the candidates of the other parties who have values that match theirs.

If you take a look at Citizens Against Government Waste, you can find all kinds of bullshit we don't need to spend money on, that will never, ever be missed.  Look at all those dumb studies in the stimulus...effect of coke on chimps and some kind of bird,....teaching Chinese hookers how to be moderate with alcohol...finding out what happens when you smoke dope and drink malt liquor....finding out the effect of alcohol on promiscuous gay sex in some South American country.  It goes on and on.  Nobody really seems to mention it on TV. 

All the czars.  Don't need them, fire them and their staffs and office space.  Start there and keep going.

Well if we're such idiots and we're beating the crap out of them in the election that doesn't say much about them. But they'll go on thinking they're intellectually superior. It's all they have.

You know something, if you were to check our history, this country was probably at it's greatest when it's leaders weren't college educated.....got their education in the school of hard knocks.

Damn right!

BINGO!!!!

Experience is 90% of everything done well. Book learning and no experience is 90% of all things done poorly.
