Speaking to reporters in Kentucky, McConnell said Republicans could support a “much more modest” approach, and one that doesn't rely on corporate tax hikes to pay for it.

But it’s not at all certain the GOP playbook that worked more than a decade ago will produce the same political gains this time around. Voters appear tired of the partisan stalemate in Washington. Many live in the country's run-down areas and are signaling they are initially supportive of Biden’s approach to governing, at least on the virus aid package.

That is, tax hikes are verboten. Moscow Mitch doesn't argue the merits (or demerits of Biden's plan. And I'd argue the demerits outway the merits, but that's another story)

And btw Reagan hiked taxes twice (at least): once purely on the deficits and again on social security. So Moscow Mitch and the Norquest gop are fulla shit.

But Reaganomics is not really applicable today. In 1980 the taxcuts provided a pool of private capital looking for investment, and we went on the biggest expansion of the latter half of the last century. And left communism and socialism in the dust, btw.

Today we have a surplus of capital and insuffiecient demand. The Fed and even Wall St. are on board with tax hikes for infrastructure - a term that is imprecise for sure.

There is NO surplus of money unless you meant FIAT money, that is an endless supply.

The real problem is the spending, they spend waaay too much on Defense as an example about 18 countries spends combined.

We have no viable defense against nuclear weapons..............

So you think we should completely gut the military?

You think LOADED QUESTIONS help you?

America spends the equivalent of the NEXT 18 nations combined on "defense" while running around in many other countries property often meddling when we should be staying out, while leaving our land defenseless against Nuclear weapons.

Don't you that is stupid?

Military spending falls under the category of defense, which is a Constitutional mandate. Welfare, Section 8 Housing, and Medicaid have no such provisions.

Should the Military Budget be cut or gutted?

Well my answer is simple and waste should be curbed and that will lower their budget...

Ha ha, you are sliding around now, you can't discuss the obvious fact that America is vastly overspending in military, a fact you can't begin to ponder since you are avoiding it.

The Constitution clearly says it is for DEFENSE of our borders, not many other countries borders.
