They are all guilty, every last one of them....The budget could be balanced today, but these clowns refuse to do it. What must be asked is “what is stopping them?”

Their defenders will say “but but but 60 votes in the Senate! We don’t have 60!”

I reply “that would not stop the Democrats from ramming it through or changing the rules”

They always forget the filibuster is not in the constitution and can be changed by a simple majority.

#1 politicians can’t run for reelection if no balanced budget in place.
#2 all raises for politicians must be voted on by the people.
