Republicans are treating state and federal budget crises by chipping away at a tiny percentage of the budgets. No way do they want to take on SSI/Medicare or the DoD.
It's like treating a multiple gunshot wound victim by removing a splinter from his foot.
Oh no, they'll only get to go on 3 vacations this summer, not 4. This is a crisis!

The House can only do so much the Senate needs to be more involved. Though I do wish the House would cut all foreign aid.

'Foreign aid' is how the US secures overseas resources. They basically call 'aid' money they give to other countries to support US corporations and projects. So, yes, I'd love to see the US cut back on that.

The Federal Debt is currently a smaller percentage of GDP than it was in the glorious 50s. The crisis is manufactured. Politicians are chanting big numbers at you, hoping you'll get scared, but the facts are that just as richer people can carry more debt, so can richer societies.

I just don't know if young people these days care about Social Security. They don't write thank you notes, they wear their pants hanging down and their baseball caps backwards, and they listen to their Enemaman and their Snoopy Snoopy Poop Dog. I just don't know if they care.
GDP is fabricated! What does the US export anyway?????
Oh, maybe the federal debt is nothing,
What about the trade deficit????

Jobs. Thirty million since 1995. Have you noticed the sands washing away under the three-card-monte table called Wall Street since 2008? The chickens are coming home to roost. The country is running out of wealth for the Jew bankers to suck out of us. How long before it's Mad Max time? Sooner than you think.
