Absorbing published probabilities of the Democrat platform spurs a combination of frustration and pity for what is apparently a majority of those on the left. Primarily because they haven’t the knowledge, education or exposure to appropriate information to understand that what they are being “sold” by their party representatives can’t possibly be delivered.

And the reason for non-deliverability has absolutely nothing to do with political belief, party affiliation or any other philosophical aspect of government. Non-deliverability predicates from nothing more than simple affordability. In the same way that a husband and wife sit at the kitchen table with a listing of their incomes, available cash from other sources and whatever other funds are available to them, they determine whether or not they can afford a new car, home or any other major expenditure.

Thus, someone like Trump whose primary expertise stems from managerial experience doesn’t approach the nation’s budgetary requirements by assessing which expenditures will please the most voters. His background, education and intuitive business sense quite naturally lead him to spending analysis as the primary consideration. While something like free health care for illegals might sound wonderful to an entire segment of voters, it might also be perceived as enormously humane. However, to a realist, the first question arising would be “how will we pay for this?”

If nothing else, Trump understands that the United States budget is huge by itself paralleled by enormous existing debt. At the same time, funds are needed for myriad additional expenditures. So, question one becomes: “where’s the money going to come from?” In that way, the decision to lower corporate taxes had nothing to do with political bent or favoring the “rich.” The decision was made because lower corporate tax rates permit higher corporate profits, which in turn drive investment and business expansion, leading to overall growth and development, ultimately increasing cash paid in taxes to drive and support the entire economy.

While the complexities of the nation’s budget management and tax regulation are enormous, no financial expertise is required at all to grasp the positive impact of Trump’s economic rationale. Lower taxes and decreased regulation stimulate business growth, which in turn promotes expansion thereby increasing hiring opportunity across the economy. Increased hiring provides opportunity for individuals of all types and persuasions regardless of ethnicity whatsoever. And what is the result? Every minority in the nation saw an increase in job opportunity, not because Trump appealed to those individuals within their particular ethnic or religious persuasions, but because metaphorically speaking, rising tides raise all boats.

What’s more, is that without having to sit down and specify funds be allocated toward any particular interest or endeavor, overall economic growth is far more likely to provide required financial wherewithal across the board. Therefore, instead of politicking against the evil, greedy business community, allowing and supporting their growth is a far better means toward attaining budgetary success. While those on the left might prefer to close their eyes, ears and whatever intellect they perhaps possess to the simplest of financial premises, the nation’s only alternatives to a stifled business sector are either additional debt or a huge Lottery win.

Bringing us back to the unfortunate basis for today’s stream of thought and the enormous differences between unrealistic, undeliverable political promises to an uneducated electorate versus practical realities managed by individuals capable of the task.

That’s it for today folks.

Adios
