No one really wants to balance the budget. They each want to save their sacred cow that brings in the re-election campaign dollars, and they point their fingers at the other sacred cows.Yes, that's the point. But for 16 years, we've not had anyone who can get a deal. The question for the Trump supporters is how can Trump to the art of the deal when not all of the participants actually want a deal that the other participants are willing to accept. He says "I'm the guy who can get them all in one room." Well, they didn't go into a room when W was potus, and they've been in a room with Obama, and the result was Obama got reelected, and they fired Boehner.The budget could be balanced in the blink of an eye just by banning tax expenditures once and for all.
Not only would the budget be balanced, we would be able to lower EVERYONE's tax rates immediately.
Congressmen, to a man, are the most dishonest people on Earth.
