clinton did then why in the hell is the dept level also at all time highs in both amount and rate of increase now lets see an actual answer instead of more of your typical spin. lol it is hard to say where the surplus went how could there ever have been a surplus when by your own figures spending exceeded revenue every year clinton was in office. you are still in complete denial and will never ever admit the truth even when faced with it from your own figures. are you big enough to admit there was no surplus how is that possible if bushy baby is so conservative. bush is no conservative. never has been. then why did the republican party nominate him for his current postition are they just a bunch of idiots or did they need a fall guy while they rape the middle class to feed the rich who knows where the money went do you the graph does indicate that the rate of increase was substancially reduced during the clinton years which you also refuse to look at lol. instead of admitting you are wrong about the existance of any surplus you try to water it down spin it a bit as above. i told you months ago that the rate of increase was reduced not the deficit. your response was more ranting about a surplus and how i was wrong. well tbone you ready to admit that there was no surplus so we can move on to other subjects how do you think the drop in the rate of increase happened without a surplus that is not what i asked. what is the need for these planned communities existance and btw more than one boat can be used. i see. in the perfect liberal world there will be no growth in any region because its not needed. communities are built because of the demand for them. more people = the need for more housing. back to the liberals fault cry again huh miles how lame. now you are saying that all planned communities are formed out of need do you really think that we are all this stupid or is it just you while true need is one reason it is more like some developers building inexpensive housing up there because of the low cost of land no impact fees and little to no cost for inspections and the low price drawing people up there there is a big difference between supplying needed housing because of a shortage and building to draw people to another area because of cheap housing. again why build there and if people want to live there then they should deal with the situation the way it is or raise the money through state and local taxes. why should my money be used for crap like that. so you admit to being greedy with your money. do you drive on the highways around your area that were paid for by federal $s oh ya they were all state funded huh youre a dang liberal hypocite tbone. lol get real miles. every state is allotted money for highway and bridge programs based on the population and size of the state. this is just a political pork barrel spending to make the representitive look good and is a complete waste of my money. of course you dont see it that way because it is money being used to make the rich richer at the cost of the poor and to you that is fine and dandy. i am not talking about anchorage but even there how many outdoor swimming pools do you see in peoples back yards. what does that have to do with anything are you saying people shouldnt live in alaska tell us tbone what is it you are trying to say about growth in alaska no what im saying is that despite your bullshit the weather there is not shangri-la as you would have us believe and the added need for heat over other areas in the country will further increase our dependence on foreign oil. what is your definition of rapidly and if the area is rapidly growing then the cost of the infrastructure needed to support it should be paid by the people benefiting from it in the form of local taxes and builder impact fees. what complete bs. every state in the country gets federal highway funds yearly. the vast majority of this countries highways and bridges are built with the help of federal $s. i ask again what is your beef with growth in alaska vs. anywhere else sorry miles but this isnt the same thing and you know it. i have no beef with the growth but the cost of that growth should be supported by those benefiting from it such as the builders and the owners. btw there is a big difference between federal aid and the free ride that this bridge is. why should i support this growth how does it benefit me in actuality it hurts me in the higher cost of fuel. if people want to live their they should pay for the infrastructure themselves or deal with what is currently there. there you go again with your own greed. lol what a case of pkb. spend only if it benifits tbone. yea right. at is more to your tune just like this bridge federal tax dollars to make the rich richer and a right wing politician look
