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. 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.

It's no different to what Obama's campaign was benefiting from. It's a huge example of bias and hypocrisy. Edited by Stirlingsays (23 Mar 2018 1.55pm)

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 0 BILLION in new debt. 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. Edited by Penge Eagle (28 Mar 2018 10.05pm)

Edited by Penge Eagle (28 Mar 2018 10.05pm) 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. 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?
