The bills need to be paid, so reduce outflow by cutting the extreme military expenditure (and save thousands of lives), and increase revenue by higher taxes on those who can well afford to pay them and who benefit disproportionately from the country’s wealth.
The point is that the Republicans keep getting elected specifically to destroy America, and they keep not doing it. It’s very frustrating for Tea Party supporters to still live in a functioning democracy after all the effort they’ve put in.
and what about the bottles for 2002, 2004, 2006 & 2008? I guess Mike doesn’t want to remember what happened when the “fiscally responsible” republicans had all 3 branches under their control.
General George Patton Jr. once remarked that any politician who votes for a bill, and then abstains, or votes against additional tax to pay for it should be impeached and thrown out!

The new number for the Federal Debt will be changed from the FROZEN NUMBER used since March 7, 2015 ($18.1 Trillion) to the actual number, now closer to $20 Trillion.-That Debt Number was hidden from the public from March 7, 2015 until the “deal” bill is signed by Obama!-IMO this is no way to run a country!
