How about neither the Gov. should cut spending and stop giving billions up on billion of dollars to other country's. I don't know people think we need to be the police of the world or support other country's or pay them to be our friends.

Cut spending, but I think taxes will need to be raised to get the debt down.
More than anything, I don't think we need to raise taxes we just need people to pay them. Nearly half this country has zero tax liability. No more free rides. 25% across the board. Zero exemptions. Zero deductions. Zero credits. It just gets taken out if your check and remitted automatically like sales tax. It would suck but we aren't cutting spending enough to get a surplus. We haven't had a surplus in many decades even before our interest expense jumped. |

Most people in America are substantially undertaxed compared to all of the European nations our betters aspire to imitate. The left knows they would be out on their asses if they actually tried to compel half of America to pay any appreciable amount of income tax, so they print money, which acts as a de facto tax on the poor. It’s still a stickup but it’s one they can get away with easier.

cutting spending is of course, the correct answer
the rest is pros and cons to each good thing about printing and inflation, is it isn't just targeted at the middle class, as it affects everyone and middle class with assets see those assets appreciate (well, reprice at least) the bad thing about printing and inflation, is the smooth brains don't understand it and it's easy for the dem operatives in media to blame it on climate change or trump or other completely unrelated issues, and thus continue outrageous spending if taxes would be raised (or applied) evenly to rich and poor, then that would be preferable. but that will never happen as they will always target the middle class while claiming to target the rich AND it's not possible to raise taxes enough to offset the obscene spending, so inflation is the only option |

In terms of the money, they're the SAME THING. Both devalue your wallet equally.
However, Printing causes inflation - tax on EVERYONE Raising taxes - tax on the PRODUCERS ONLY Biden HATES the poor and makes them pay more. The only SOLUTION lies in FPNI |

They're basically the same thing. Printing money is just a sneakier means to the same end.
If they raise taxes, they take a certain amount of value from what you have, but you can see how much they took. If they print money, they take a certain amount of value from what you have, but you don't see that amount directly. Things just cost more now. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Ambridge77: I'd prefer to cut spending. This and lower taxes. OP presented a false choice. Lowering taxes (not to zero, of course) allows the pie to grow, and tax revenues increase (re: Laffer Curve). Economic illiterates point to Kansas failing to have this happen when they cut taxes. However, does anyone think that their economy would have improved had taxes remained the same or increased? Orange Man's tax cuts resulted in about a 40% increase in tax revenue. The problem was that he and Congress outspent that. |
