“ObamaCare is still intact, our national debt has grown by $3 trillion, and Republicans have capitulated to Democrats on every issue from the debt ceiling to the budget.”
Don’t have the votes in the senate to repeal obamacare, the house has voted to repeal it over 50 times.
The national debt grew by 3 trillion over 4 years which is less than half the 3.2 trillion over the 2 prior years.
The deficit is now under 800 billion, a huge drop from 1.6 trillion prior to 2011.
Regarding the debt ceiling, you can’t go cold turkey from 1.6 trillion deficits to zero deficit in one day. And I mean one day literally.
Even the loony Ron Paul acknowledged in the debates that, despite his hatred of federal spending on welfare payments, that he would not recommend chopping them off immediately--it had to be gradual.
I am 100% BEHIND holding feet to the fire and destroying the culture of dependence that the Democrats and RINOs are perpetuating--but doing it smart, not necessarily FAST, is the right way.
We need a true conservative Senate and President to begin the process more fully. And we need an educated electorate.
