Pass this on to Rand.

“I see some self-described libertarians siding with lefty bureaucrats at CBO who claim the Big Beautiful Bill will “explode the debt.” This is based entirely on CBO claiming that extending the current tax rates (not raising them) will “cost” the government $4 trillion in revenue.

Since when have libertarians argued that NOT raising taxes “costs” the government money? Private money yet to be earned does not “belong” to the government. This is a Democrat-collectivist argument and I’m shocked to see libertarians deploying it.

Under this ludicrous theory, one could raise taxes to 90% on everyone and declare the deficit solved.

BBB cuts taxes, cuts spending, reforms welfare and *ends mass migration*.

On the last point, anyone serious about limited government and improving America’s financial health would understand that ending mass migration is the prerequisite for every other problem we wish to solve.

Of course, true libertarians don’t believe in borders at all…”

Anyone serious about limited government would be looking to make significant cuts to the out-of-control spending and debt accumulation. We have to borrow almost a third of the money we're spending to prop up our massive government. That's nuts.

He’s 100% correct.

And he is 50 times smarter than all the negative Nellies in FR who sound like panty waist Dems.

Trump is trying to reverse DECADES of complete inaction by Congress be they conservative, liberaltarian, or lazy.
