In other news..........

On Friday afternoon, the national debt of the IOUSA hit another major milestone, officially soaring past $21 trillion for the first time ever. That's larger than the size of the entire US economy.
More worryingly, debt is growing 36% faster than the economy.
And these are 'the good times'!

Hmmm...........

No you probably didn't as it seemed to disappear very swiftly, even though it wasn't offensive. A bit petulant perhaps but that's what I thought you were being with the edited post, rather than replying and subsequently putting what you did about name calling when I said I thought it was quite t***tish.

I'd rather it stood and took a yellow if I wanted to offend someone but that wasn't the case here. Anyway never mind, you usually post in a decent manner which was why I persued it. Other posters that almost always reply with nonsense I'd have just ignored them.

You were right about Coulsdon North. I'd never known about it hence me being confused about, and questioning, whether you meant Smitham, now Coulsdon Town, which you didn't .

Beautifully Partridge this, mate.

Yep , just a reminder that all may not be quite as rosy as it seems.
Interesting times ahead.

Edit: I see the Dow's having another 'blip'. Can't wait 'til next week.

It's no different to what Obama's campaign was benefiting from.

It's a huge example of bias and hypocrisy.

Hang on, when Obama's campaign used these tactics and won he was a genius. Trump's campaign does it and he's evil. That is the media bias.

From what I understand, what Cambridge Analytica did was gather data from personality tests on Facebook which is perfectly legal. Did this really swing the election? I doubt it.

But the Democrats won't accept that they put up an awful candidate in Hillary and lost. It's sour grapes and they will blame everyone else for their defeat. It's also part of a wider clampdown on conservatives on Facebook and they want to make sure it doesn't happen again.

Just this week, the US government is issuing $300 BILLION in new debt.
Debt upon debt upon debt.
And no, this has nothing to do with Trump or anyone who happened to be POTUS at this time, it's the real state of the economy.

I don't agree with Trump's signing of the 1.3tr dollar omnibus spending package. Happily agreed by both Democrats and Republicans.

But your point about debt levels is not wholly accurate when judging an economy. At least quote the ratio of net debt to GDP instead. Most economists judge an economy on growth, jobs and standard of living, while others feel increasing debt can help the economy. Personally, I prefer a nation to reduce debt but you can only do that with a growing economy with increased tax receipts and cut back on govt spending.

As you are probably aware, the tax cuts are partly intended to encourage US corporations to "repatriate" the trillions of dollars they have sitting in off-shore tax havens and invest the money in US business.

While this has been a failed policy in the past (Bush jnr tried something similar in 2002) it has pushed back the impending recession until probably 2020/21, by which time it is exceedingly unlikely that Trump will still be president, so he won't have to take the rap. He'll most likely go after the mid-terms later this year, as the results will lose Republican control of at least one of the houses, maybe both!

Either way, US debt will rise astronomically with the ratio to GDP reaching totally unrealistic levels. But Trump has run his businesses on the same"too big to fail" debt mountain for years,so why should he run the government any differently?
