@no1marauder saidBut you and Karl object to one owning a piece of real estate?
That definition is useless for our discussion; no one objects to anyone owning a toothbrush which would fit it.

@athousandyoung saidIt becomes increasingly difficult to field so many incorrect liberal posts. I hope Thousand has not gone off to Frisbee in the park, so that he will learn the facts from this fact. Geez O Mighty. You fellers are so confused.
The Democrats have consistently brought down deficit spending over the last few decades which is necessary to reduce the debt don’t let the MAGA propaganda fool you
@metal-brain saidYes, SCOTUS has to review this. I am not versed on child credit, but we an assume this has passed the house and is thus within Constitutional limits.
@AverageJoe1
It will probably be taken to the SCOTUS.
A lower court ruled it unconstitutional, but I don't see why it would be. I get a tax refund every year and it is more than taxes withheld. If student loan relief is unconstitutional then the child tax credit is unconstitutional. It is an obvious contradiction.

Debt held by the public relative to GDP rose rapidly again in the 1980s. President Ronald Reagan's economic policies lowered tax rates (Reagan slashed the top income tax rate from 70% to 28%, although bills passed in 1982 and 1984 later partially reversed those tax cuts.)[26][28] and increased military spending, while congressional Democrats blocked cuts to social programs.[24][26][28] As a result, debt as a share of GDP increased from 26.2% in 1980 to 40.9% in 1988,[27] and it continued to rise during the presidency of George H. W. Bush, reaching 48.3% of GDP in 1992.[18][29]
Gross US Federal Debt as a Percentage of GDP, by political party of President
Debt held by the public reached a high of 49.5% of GDP at the beginning of President Clinton's first term. However, it fell to 34.5% of GDP by the end of Clinton's presidency due in part to decreased military spending, increased taxes (in 1990, 1993 and 1997), and increased tax revenue resulting from the 1990s boom.

@metal-brain saidSuper wealthy people control goobermint because the pollies have something to sell i.e. political power. Remove political power and the pollies have got nothing to sell, super wealthy people have got nothing to buy.
Wealth inequality is why super wealthy people control government. Libertarians want to make that worse. Not all of their social stances are good either. They want open borders more than democrats. They would like to eliminate social security to end the income tax, but that is not even possible since the national debt is too high.
Few people care about the national deb ...[text shortened]... argue it will save lives killing mosquitos that carry malaria. The environment is not their concern.
@wajoma saidI'm not taking sides, but one cannot ignore that rich people can get what they want. So, what is a more zeroed-on issue about that? I know some here want to get 95% of their money, ala Eliz warren, so what is the issue. BTW it is shown that their total net worth would run the country for 75 days.

@metal-brain saidThat's the natural outcome of goobermint run healthcare. Their main excuse for coming down on citizens, coercing the juice, forcing masks, closing businesses, shutting people in their homes, ruining lives and giving untold billions to mega corporations was the public health care system.
"you're an advocate for mega corporations influencing goobermint."
That is not true and you know it.
@wajoma saidThat is a good point , consider, how horrible it would be if the government was running, everything in our health world, given that they are already doing all of that just now without such license, freedom to tell us what the hell to do . Hell, this could lead to spreading wealth around. The death knell of the USA.
