House Votes to Change the Way Economic Legislation is Scored

Prove what, that black people have been and are in elected positions from the republican party?

Google it. Plenty of minorities out there....



Anything else?

 

I am living proof you are a fucking nut job.

I am republican, my family is republican, my wife's family is republican.

I am white and my wife is black.

We also live in the south.

We are also friendly neighbors with a lesbian couple. Our kids are close friends.


But please, go refill your paint brush and keep going.

 

I agree with pride123. You were never interested in "good debate". You seem to have been interested in leaving a steaming pile of shit with the hopes of flinging it around if you got the chance. You are condescending and have a definite bigotry of your own.

"Dynamic scoring pertains to how the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) and the Joint Committee on Taxation (JCT) score—namely, calculate the budgetary cost of–bills that impact government spending and tax revenues respectively (both Krugman and Bouie wrongly write CBO scores tax bills, when in fact JCT does). ....For example, a higher tax rate would bring in more revenue, but it would also cause people to work, save and invest less because their incentives for doing those things decreases with higher rates. The reduction in those productive activities would reduce the amount of revenue the tax hike would raise because the economy would produce less income than it would have in the absence of the hike.

But in static scoring, analysts would only look at the increased tax revenue the higher tax rate would bring—and illogically would assume that everyone would work the same amount, thus over-estimating the actual amount of revenue the tax increase would raise."

We are a lot more alike than I thought. I inserted the differences above.

 

Models have a hard time with water vapor. Which is a major cause.

Btw, I'm not denying, just pointing to how they have to use their assumptions in their math.

 

Your life isn't living proof of anything about me, it's living proof about you

 

Good for you. That's great, but it still doesn't remove the fact that you have yet to address my original post with any substance. Do you or do you not agree with the Republicans moving to alter the way the CBO calculates math?

Up until Tuesday there were absolutely no black representatives serving in the house or the senate from the republican party. now there are three. if this is your proof that the Republican party isn't "white and right" then it is also the evidence against you. Geez....it's like arguing with a third grader sometimes.

 

This is laughable. I am actually laughing out loud while reading this comment. You guys amaze me. I asked someone, anyone on this forum to defend the Republicans changing of the way the CBO scores economic legislation and, to date, not a single one of you have been able to successfully do so. So now you want to call me a bad guy, a meanie pants. Well guess what, this is online debate forum. If your skin isn't thick enough to handle it when someone rubs your own stupid policies in your face then maybe you need to find a different political party to support. I am looking for an honest debate but you guys have yet to and, I must assume, unable to give me that honest debate. You tried with this lame thing about the JCT using macroeconomic effects and that somehow was supposed to be justification for forcing the CBO to do the same. But when I called you on it and explained the way our budgetary process works you have since flailed around, struggling to find ground to stand on.

This is my problem with Republicans. They've claimed for years that Obamacare would be a colossal failure and after the technical hiccups they took a victory lap as if all of their predictions had come true. Now, statistics from independent groups like Gallup have found that the uninsured rate is dropping dramatically now that people have access to healthcare and the rising cost of premiums have indeed began to ebb due to the law. Like I said independent experts agree that this is the case, not Democrats. But do Republicans admit that the law is working? Of course not. Just the other day Paul Ryan was railing against the "failure" of Obamacare. Four years ago Republicans nearly blew their tops claiming that the Fed's easy money policies were going to send inflation through the roof and only make our situation worse. Now, here we are four years later and when is the last time you heard anyone talking about run away inflation? Republicans have claimed for the past six years that Obama's policies were going to cripple the economy and send the debt through the roof. But now that the economy is improving and has been improving at a significant rate for almost an entire year, those same Republicans are quiet as a mouse. Mitch McConnell tried to take credit for the improving economy on the Senate floor the other day by suggesting the economy started improving when the Republicans won back the Senate. This is laughable. My point is that Republicans have a problem with facts. On their preferred media when something doesn't fit into their story, they call it a liberal bias and move on to the next thing. Guess what? There is no liberal bias in the truth. Republicans seem to have a problem with the truth.

And what do they do when you call them on it? What do they say when you come back after all that time to rub it in their faces? You're being mean....you aren't looking for an honest debate. Well guess what, I am going to keep rubbing it in your faces because you deserve to have it rubbed in your face. Anyone who can stand there and keep repeating the same shit over and over needs to have it rubbed in their face when it turns out they are wrong again and again.

 

Sure it is.

According to you, republicans are "white and right" and want to keep it that way. We hate gays and women and poor people.

There is no point in a debate with a person with this mindset.


If you could string together any response with out labeling an entire group, then maybe we could have a discussion.

But in your mind, all republicans are bad. So like, what's the point???
