Bowles/Simpson question
They are charged with the job of cutting the budget deficit and paying down the debt.

And they say to cut taxes further on rich people and corporations.

:shrug:

How's that work?.

Why does it seem you lose more money on mutual funds when the market is down than what you earn when the market is up?

2. If that is what they are told to do.

I would ask who are they listening to and why.

:shrug:

Then after doing that, you think on it for awhile you see its effects, and if those effects are the goals, you can see what is probably the source.

There is an argument that hardship is created for people because they are not 'holy' and the hardship will get them to turn to God. In my situation I did get some spiritual help after I was wrongly given hardship by some types like that, but it is also possible I always had that help and the enemy was just attacking me more as I was helping people, so I don't give any credit to those that create hardship since I know my entire life.

There is a delusion that tries to get people that hurt people to think they are doing God's work.

Here's the thing, those that did not look for him were found. And I really think there is help for many based on their hearts not how they show worship, that seems like pride for God to need worship, although if worship is for sharing of love with God, then it is something different and also makes sense.

As I said years ago, a God that only wanted to be worshiped would not get my respect, hence why I think helping and loving people is what is honoring God, and a way to show love and respect to God. It makes sense of the 'knowing of the heart' and speak to God in your secret place, and why I think the works of God are done through so many people of good heart in so many places.

Maybe I am wrong, I don't have any beer and travel money, and haven't been around people to be able to be nice to or help people in awhile, but :shrug: it makes sense.

Maybe I am right? Not knowing lets me think and feel on it and decide what to do, based on who I want to be.

4. Exactly the way it did during the GWB administration.

Also Reagan's tenure. Remember, he tripled the national debt. Junior doubled it.
