[quote:Anonymous Coward 483402:MV83NDc3ODNfMTE0NzExMDhfMjMwQTMwNUM=] Ugh! CANT GET YOUR NEWS STRAIGHT?! Its... HALVE THE DEFICIT. Meaning, halve the depth we get into debt every year. We will STILL be getting deeper into debt. We aren't even in surplus territory like we had at the end of the Clinton years [where everyone in Congress was falling all over themselves to "SPEND THE SURPLUS" without talking about doing anything about the debt].

Ok, so he plans to do this in 4 years. Please if you are a believer tell me how. He plans to pay back 500 trillion dollars in 4 years. Now it has been studied and shown that they could collect 100% of all salaries of every person in america that makes over $75,000 (as they pay almost 70% of all income taxes), and it would not even cover the governments budget for this year.
The math just does not add up. I am sorry but this is absolute fuzzy math. It is mathematically impossible to do what he is saying.
What makes you believe him?
