Hey Rob... how much more do Republicans add to the National Debt over the previous years Democrats? You can use actual dollar amounts or the actual percentage.

This was already answered in a previous post. More than one, actually.

Is gasoline cheaper when you buy 12 gallons for $35.88, or 23 gallons for $63.94?

Obviously, the gas you bought for 12 gallons is cheaper because you spent less money, right?

The point is since you are going to puss out and not do it is that the amounts more you keep talking about aren't that much more than the President before or after the Republican president. Hell, Biden was over $8+T to the debt when you were crying about seven something from Trumps first term.

So after all the posts of you denying the truth, you now come around to admitting that the Republicans are worse for the debt than the Democrats.

But now that you finally admit it, it is suddenly a nothing-burger.
Kind of funny how that works, huh?

So if we ONLY had Republican presidents adding $1.4T to the debt every term since 1913, our debt would be at $51.8 Trillion. If we ONLY had Democrat presidents adding $1.2T to the debt every term since 1913, our debt would be at $44.4 Trillion. A differecne of $7.4 Trillion dollars.

The Republicans would have us 25% deeper in debt than we are now.
Tell me again how the Republicans are better for the debt than the Democrats.

Nice try. I am not even close to saying that.

Nope. Do you think that the longer a topic goes on that eventually you can just claim the other person changed their mind?

You have no way of knowing that for sure. You are using nothing but assumptions. Ergo... POINTLESS.

Tell me how Biden (A Democrat) was better for the national debt @ $8+T over Trump (A Republican) @$7+T. Explain it.

Tell me how Biden (A Democrat) was better for the national debt @ $8+T over Trump (A Republican) @$7+T. Explain it.

Biden increased it by 30%. Trump increased it by 39%.

Who gets a better raise: The person who gowes from $100K to $139K, or the person going from $200 to to $260K?
Obviously the person who got the $78K raise, right?

NOPE. The person starting at $100K gets the better raise. It's 39% versus the 3-% the other person got.
Trump icresed the debt by a higher percentage than Biden. By 9%.
Tha means he did more harm than Biden did.

Math 101.

LOL you are simply pathetic. $8T is more than $7T but you keep on playing math games if it helps keep your delusional world going. It really is sad that you have to soften your teams **** ups to make them seem less fucked up.

"Math games". Named as such because even the most basic math concepts confuse you. Math concepts you should have conquered in grade school.

"**** ups". The Republicans are worse for both the debt and the economy, but you completely deny those truths.
You use a phrase like "the amounts more you keep talking about aren't that much more".

And you accuse ME of "softening" things? That's pretty damn funny

You have no way of knowing that for sure. You are using nothing but assumptions. Ergo... POINTLESS.

Actually, I DO know. It's this thiong call mathematics. Do the calcualtion 1,283,345 times, and you will get the same answer. That's the cool thing about math: It's infinitely repeatable, verifiable, undeniable.

You're assuming those numbers you are using would stay the same throughout time. Sorry fella, that is just an assumption. Just give up. Democrats have added more to the National Debt than Republicans overall... that means MORE MONEY. You cannot change that FACT.

 

[ThxOne Premium Member]

Since they have added more to the National Debt they are literally WORSE for the economy.

 

[RobGMN Premium Member]

You're assuming those numbers you are using would stay the same throughout time. Sorry fella, that is just an assumption. Just give up. Democrats have added more to the National Debt than Republicans overall... that means MORE MONEY. You cannot change that FACT.

Those numbers are based on the REAL averages that are derived from REAL increases.
Republicans had REAL increases averaging $1.4 Trillion per term since 1913.
Democrats had REAL increases averaging $1.2 Trillion per term since 1913.

If you want to keep insisting the Republicans are better for the debt than Democrats, there are only three possibilities: 1. You truly have no math skills beyond grade-school level. 2. You DO understand the math, and are flat-out lying to soften the truth. 3. You're simply toeing the party line and saying the Republicans are better, no matter what the facts say.

Which one is it?

Do you deny that Democrats have added more to the National Debt overall Rob?

 

[RobGMN Premium Member]

Do you deny that Democrats have added more to the National Debt overall Rob?

Of course not. It's a mathematical certainty, but it's not a relevant one.
Anyone with an understanding of math beyinbd grade school should know that, and I could literally show you dozens of examples why.

'But I'm sure you will deny them all, because they are mathematical proof that shows why the Repulicans are worse for the debt than Democrats.

 

[ThxOne Premium Member]

It is relevant. This is money that the country OWES as a whole... how can you sit there and say it is not a relevant thing???

It's not about understanding math you arrogant ***. I made a factual point and because you are you... you have to argue about it and find some way to say no, you are wrong. But I am not, Democrats HAVE added more overall. You can do what you need to do to comfort yourself for voting those big spenders into office.

I know that $10 is more than $5. I don't care how it got there, what is important is that it is there. Reducing it should be the focus but we know Dems just want to spend, spend, spend.

It is not relevant in a discussion of who is better or worse for the debt.

If you can't understand that, then you obviously don't know a thing about mathematics

Shouted from the rooftops. It's an irrelevant statistic that says nothing about who is better or worse for the debt.

The Republicans are bigger spenders than the Democrats are. Period.
Do you take comfort in voting them into office, based on the mathematical certainty that they are?

I know that $10 is more than $5. I don't care how it got there, what is important is that it is there. Reducing it should be the focus but we know Dems just want to spend, spend, spend.

Yep. But, they spend less less less than the Republicans do. On an average of $200 billion per term in office, compared to the Republicans.
