How the hell can they cut taxes? We're already in debt to the tune of about $20 trillion. We need to stop fucking spending money, first.

That's why I find it so absolutely fucking OUTRAGEOUS that the so-called party of "fiscal responsibility" want to spend even more on the MIC which is shown time and time again to be outrageously wasteful and inefficient, full of Congressional pet-projects, cronyism, and outright corruption.

The sad truth is that neither party is for smaller government anymore.

W didn't even run on reducing the size of government. He ran on slowing its growth.

If the money is there it will be spent. It's way too easy to spend other people's money.

Our government is bankrupt, has been for decades and it's time to admit it and try something different.

The money isn't there. It isn't anywhere. We owe more than the entire GDP of the country, and the GDP calculation includes shit that the government funds.
