Would you love to vote for him if he promised to balance the budget after his 1 term? Let's see that would be 4 years. Do you think this can be balance before then? And btw were you a supporter of Perry's before?
We're many trillions in debt. As long as we continue to spend more than we bring in (i.e. budget deficits) our total debt will continue to increase.
By not having a balanced budget til 2020, Perry has just promised to increase the national debt during every year of his Presidency.
If you were spending more each month than you were earning how many months would it take you to cut back on your spending??? 2 months, 3 months, 4 months?
Perry says it will take him 96 months.
Can you support that???
