Do you run your home economy the way you expect to see the Federal Government run?

[cute girl]

If you kept taking out loans and paying your previous loan off with your new one, you'd go to jail as a felon for kiting.

The Federal Govt has no such laws to live by lolol.

[What It Do Homiez?]

Do you have a coherent explanation of how we got here?

[bar_mar_mar]

Since about the FDR administration and cases such as Wickard v. Filburn Congress has used the Commerce Clause to justify just about anything it wants. Of course some of that has been reigned in with Lopez and Morrison, but it's still there, you're right.

This is especially a question for liberals, who seem to think that the answer to this fiscal crisis is to ensure a bigger, badder one in a year or three, kicking the can down the alley, hoping just because it's dark, it doesn't actually end.

Really. Do you hit your debt ceiling, then just get another credit card to max out? Do you realize that you're paying to much on interest, and then borrow more? Do you refuse to cut spending, even though you're already squeezing as much money out of your employer as you can?

Tell me... how do you run your economy?
and most importantly... is it susatainable?

[DeliciouslyBETH]

Um, no. It doesn't matter what people demand, if it violates the Constition it violates the Constitution. We can't send a bunch of people to Washington to reinstitute slavery because it would violate the 13th, 14th, and 15th amendments. We can't send a bunch of people to Washinton to establish a national religion because it would violate the 1st amendment.


I agree, the founders may have been contradictory, that doesn't negate what the Constitution recognizes and doesn't recognize.

What is your account for how we came to be here on this planet?

[Armielene C]

You realize there are children in the united states right, and they have rights?

BTW even if you don't have kiRAB, you were a kid once, so please tell us about your right to a jury whenever you violated the rules of your house, and how you could endlessly protest using your first amendment rights, and whenever your parents said you made a mistake you had right to due process, and of course all decisions were made through voting

SounRAB like a fascinating childhood you had

Family budgets ... just like a nation with trillions in assets whose job typically includes averting disaster

[beautiful disaster]

So you're saying that a family budget is in no way comparable to the budget of a nation? Please elaborate.

[Muzik]

Calling you out on your simple-minded attempt at an analogy isn't deflecting, champ.
