The current budget will cause many of American poor people to suffer. How can you justify buying more Bombs to kill people, over putting food on poor people dinner table.!!??The increase in military spending is not the best thing America can do right now. I thought the president was going to bring the jobs back from China,??!! Everything I buy now is made in China.!!??!! What happened to made in the U.S.A ??!! What is this president doing.!!??
So here's the thing.
When you have tax revenues which are less than what you spend, you get a deficit. Then you have to borrow money from China and other places, increasing our total debt.
The Republican Party, being the party of fiscal responsibility, decided the answer to this dilemma is to decrease the amount of tax revenues coming in even more by extending the "Trump tax cuts".
Then it occurred to them this would actually increase the deficit by an extra trillion dollars.
These days, we toss around "a trillion dollars" as if its just bells and whistles.
Now the Republicans were confronted with a real poser. How to cut spending while still bringing in less revenue.
They could not let the tax cuts expire on the rich. The rich also need all the subsidies and tax deductions, credits, and exemptions they paid good money to our politicians to get.
If our politicians want to stay in office and have all that campaign cash rain down on them which gives them a literal 98 percent chance of being re-elected, they had to keep their mitts off the rich.
After all, George Soros needs every penny he can get to wage war on Mom and apple pie.
Then the deficit hawks came up with a brilliant plan.
"Let's take our spending overruns out of the low-income strata! These negroes, hillbillies, rednecks, and the elderly are leeches on society!"
Nevertheless, the party of fiscal responsibility is going to add $5 trillion to the debt, and they haven't even been in office for six month!
Of course, the MAGA cult will yet again turn a blind eye to this rank hypocrisy.
Because Republicans.
They will also try to ignore their own stench.
And since the Democrats have uniformly and unanimously voted against this "disgusting abomination" (- Elon Musk), the Republicans and Fox News will correctly blame them for it.
