I heard; no tax hikes at all and 1 trillion reduced over the course of 10 years.

Anyone hear differently...?

So this is non-cut cuts, basically, right?

That is less than ZERO reduction, it is additional debt by about 2 trillion.

Landrieau was just on Greta talking tax hikes,defense cuts,and some discretionary cuts and no two step process.Either she’s using some quality pharmas or Boehner got rolled big time.

Let's see...Obama had hardly been in office one year when he happily sent close to 1 trillion down Alice in Wonderland's rabbit hole and called it "stimulus." Took a few weeks to do but ten years to undo? With no accountability whatsoever? "Off with their heads!"
