You guys are not focused on the right thing.

The Senate proposals have far LESS deficit increase than the House has specified (increase of $4T vs Senate $2T).

The Senate’s version will be more conservative than the House, if you call conservatism lower debt or deficits.

The big determinant is, of course, the Trump tax cuts, which the Senate has approved of, though not in their entirety.

People heads up. This is math. It’s not politics or particular politicians. It’s math. When one says there is no solution, that doesn’t mean no easy solution. It means no solution.

Dude. Your continued doomposting is getting old.

Fine, let’s pretend there is absolutely zero chance of getting out of this mess.

Should we stop trying?

Let’s say nothing can stop the trainwreck.

Isn’t it best to slow things down and at least get a few more years?

Quit with the pearl-clutching, fainting couch routine for once in your life.

Do you think raising tax rates increases revenue?
