both GOP candidates are gaming the calculator: They've proposed tremendous cuts, but without knowing who will pay for those cuts

The concept of "paying for tax cuts" is profoundly illogical. Allowing taxpayers to keep more of their money requires no expenditure. What libs really mean to ask is this: how will the lost revenue be recovered? Essentially, they're frightened to death of the gov't cutting entitlement programs for the welfare leech class. Aka, the Democrat base.

That is correct, you pay for the tax cuts by cutting government spending.

No more of the supply side garbage!

Of course they are. The gibmedats gang is their guaranteed voter base. It's all about numbers/demographics now; issues no longer matter. There's a social compact between the RATS and the gibmedats: we give you free stuff and, in return, you show up at the polls once or twice a year. (not a bad deal, actually).
