The Republicans under Reagan cut taxes and the economy boomed. The Republicans under Bush cut taxes and the economy boomed. The Republicans under Trump cut taxes and the economy boomed. Every time the Democrats insisted that the extra revenue brought in from the booms be spent faster than we made it. The Republicans caved because one they want their defense spending and two the Dems demonize them and they're afraid of losing elections. It's the same story over and over. Only the last guy doubled down and spent like crazy, with Republican well wishes. The only way this insanity ends is badly, but do we have to act like lemmings headed over the cliff? No matter what happens, people will still work, SS taxes will be taken out, and companies will match those funds.
