• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Who are "we;" and who taught y'all that?
Americans we, and the tax code has demonstrated that Trump has raised taxes: Above-the-line deductions have been reduced or moved to below-the-line, so that you can't use them unless you itemize.

The White House is constantly spouting propaganda at our expense. "Zero inflation" is a lie, and taxpayers know it.

That's why Trump's approval rating is tanking: he's a complete failure less than a year in.

Speaking of propaganda, Musk has programmed Grok to praise his "physique".

Just wondering, did DOGE cost more than it supposdly saved?
That seems more plausible than not.
It's not impossible. Hopefully the CBO will be able to hold some sort of accounting once all the dust finally settles.

Considering the national debt has risen by almost 2 trillion since Trump took office I think it's fairly obvious that DOGE did not accomplish anything of substance and cost the US a lot.

Debt rising is obvious.
I wonder what has happened to the deficit thus far in this adminstration? That'd present a clearer picture of the effectiveness of DOGE, would it not?

A fallacy of generalization, occurs when a conclusion is drawn about a whole group based on insufficient or biased evidence from a small sample. Your teacher needs to be educated.

What was the topic of this thread again? Oh, that's right, it's DOGE.

DOGE is not Trump; and Trump lowered my taxes.

Trumpwins law fulfilled.

Tell that to the American public, who have concluded that Trump and DOGE are failures.
What was the topic of this thread again? Oh, that's right, it's DOGE.
Which has failed.
DOGE is not Trump;
Oh, but they are.
and Trump lowered my taxes.
You need to check your math.

Random nonsense sentence fragment.

DOGE only affected the spending side of things, it had no effect on tax revenues.
Most tax and spend Liberals realize that taxing and spending go hand in hand.

Kind of hard to know that when the administration cancelled the release that information now. What are they hiding?

There are other sources though. Doesn't look good.
