Fiscal responsibility: suppose the govt "doesn't spend money it doesn't have."

OK, first and foremost NAOS seems to have created this thread based on a quip I made in the another thread about not spending money you don't have or quit spending more than you make or something to that effect. He and a couple others took it to mean that I advocate a stop on all excess spending immediately. Of course that's ludicrous and would be disastrous.
so you ARE in favor of the government spending money it doesn't have, exactly the opposite of what you recommended in the other thread. "simple" you said.

I honestly stopped reading that last thread, I scanned who posted in it and skipped most of it after a while. Could be why I failed to answer the question.

If any of you posters out there that went on a mission ever ran into Jehovah's Witnesses that "wanted to talk to you" and had that experience, that's what this "conversation" turned into to me. Instead of arguing with know it all jerks and turning into one myself, I decided it's better not to bang heads with people that are more interested in an argument than a conversation.

If the thread and the question is not naos being an Angler, I don't know what is.

Why don't you do it? It's a dumb question anyway .. right up your alley.

you were the one advocating this course of action.
The OP was directing the question towards you and your side, not me.
It is a quality question, not dumb at all.
 
Okay. Thanks spazz .. thanks for opening my eyes that I've been being trolled all this time. At least I feel better knowing people aren't as stupid as they pretend to be.
 
anyway, as fuzzy as the responses are, it appears that the right here does not really want to have the government stop spending money it doesn't have after all. They don't know what would happen, but the consensus is, it would be bad.

you weren't being trolled, you were being given an opportunity to explain your position in a respectful constructive manner.
you have failed.

I don't know about consensus .. but I want the massive waste to stop. Then, once we know where we REALLY are, re-evaluate tax rates, if need be,
 
well, your comrades appear to think that your recommendation would be disastrous. No details more than this have been given, so there is not much to work with, but I don't see any support from anyone else for this course of action.
