conix, Nope. The point was in the heading, "Republicans lack credibility on deficit." It's fair common practice to remind all of that.

You would well know that for years part of your disingenuous game has always been to create a strawman, as you just did in your

"So--the answer to that article is that--"Hey, what about the Republicans and their deficits historically?"
Fundamental difference. Talking about the present and the immediate future .... and the past.
Which is more important to me? The present and the immediate future.
Some here are stuck in the past."

imagination there. Then totally ignore all of the content of the post. So here, for kicks, is a bit for you to ignore again

"Let’s look at the numbers. Biden’s infrastructure proposal would spend $2.65 trillion over ten years, with most funding ending after eight years. At the same time, his tax increases would raise $2.75 trillion over 15 years. So within 15 years, the Biden plan would be fully paid for. And after 15 years, it would actually cut the deficit, eventually by a large amount. While all the spending is temporary, the tax increases are permanent. That means the tax increases would continue cutting deficits and promoting fiscal restraint for years to come.

Republicans complain that Biden’s plan would take too long to recoup costs because the taxes fail to pay for the spending within a ten-year “budget window.” First, there’s nothing magical about a ten-year budget window. Over history, the so-called length of these budget windows has varied. Second, the bridges, roads and tunnels the plan would fund will benefit us not just for ten years but for many decades to come. Anyone borrowing money to make a long-term investment like buying a home understands the concept of repaying the mortgage over several years or decades throughout the life of the property. "

That is present and since you said, "Which is more important to me? The present and the immediate future. Some here are stuck in the past." YOU should have been more interested in it than you were. In your games and your disinterest in the present there, it looks like you are the one stuck in the past.
