    WAR is the conservatives business along with death and low taxes for the wealthiest 1%

      Conservatives believe the Dept. of Labor is a slave control office.

        They would because they never worked an honest days labor in their life

          Yup, and these are the same Idiots that want to do away with SS disability benefits.

    “Paul jumped in, saying that Rubio’s economic plan was not truly conservative since it adds a major childcare tax credit and increases military spending.”
    Yeah, that childcare tax credit will be the death of our economic system.

      Congratulations. that is the first government spending chart that I have seen in a long time that does NOT include Social Security programs. The Republicans are always including SS programs into these charts so as to distort the over bloated military spending. Social Security programs are an independent, Stand alone program and are not part of the general budget spending. But, Republicans always throw it in with the general budget spending charts to distort them. Military spending has been over half of the government budget process for way too long. We are NOT the World Police Force. Thank you William for an honest presentation.

        The GOP forgets that SS is funded…..
        unlike two middle east wars.

          There are a lot of facts and provisions in SS that most people do not know about or understand. It is by far the most successful program ever put out by government. A friend of mine was complaining one day that he and his wife did not have enough to live on. I asked about their SS. He said his was okay but his wife could not get it because she had always stayed home and never worked. I just shook my head and set down at his computer. I explained the spousal benefits to him and in about 20 minutes we increased their income by 50 %. Some people. Another thing is the first year income exemption limit. It helps people retire in mid year and not go over the annual extra income limit. I have helped several people with that one.

    I think I have a good idea to let the conservatives put their money where their mouths are; have a tax solely for military expenses, ALL of them…including veteran benefits and health care.

    WOW, Liberal military spending. Now there’s a new one. I think Paul got one right on this but he’s still an Idiot. ” I STILL BELIEVE IN HILARY ! “

    15 years as a non productive member of american society – what blsht credentials.

      He was productive, doing the deeds of his financial backers. He got away with it in the Florida Legislature, but in the Senate, he was a completely empty suit. His only productive efforts were involved in immigration reform, but once his backers and minions found out about it, he ran like a skeered little weasel.

    When Rand is the one voice of Reality on the stage, we can all see how frightening this entire cadre of buffoons actually is.
