Those are my thoughts, too.
I haven't forgiven Kasich and Newt for throwing away Reagan's growth paradigm in favor of "balanced budgets". Predictably, Dems joined in that call, and have been using it ever since to cast themselves as the fiscally responsible party. Of course, that means TAX INCREASES.
Those budgets Kasich still brags about were phony, too. They counted Social Security revenues twice, and kept trillions off-budget.
Still, better than any Dem you can name.
I, too, believe in balanced budgets....but, figured after the income and outgo are tallied. In short, that means I believe in low spending such that it never has a chance of exceeding income.
I’m a low spend/supply sider. I wouldn’t give you a piece of dirt for any budget-projection that I’ve ever seen.
Until this nation realizes the wisdom of low spend/supply side, it will not truly catch up and get ahead.
Necessities over luxuries. Pelosi’s caviar cruises are criminal and should be prosecuted.
