without effective fiscal policy measures to reduce government spending

But, but, but, but - Kevin McCarthy and Chuck Schumer and Joe Biden cooked up a deal in June that they would not increase the national debt by more than 4 TRILLION dollars in 19 months.

4 TRILLION Dollars in 19 months. Good thing Kevin McCarthy is such a strong conservative or the increase agreement might have been for more. Of course, they have to actually get there, but how hard can it be? After all, this country, founded in 1776, took 210 years to run up the first 4 Trillion debt, so the spenders have improved their game considerably since then.

Does Moody's think those illegals are all going to walk here for free? And what about the sad story of little Zellie needing more dollars and weapons to wage war against Putin? Of course not!

The debt is disgracefully bad to be sure, but our Unfunded Liabilities are 6 times what the debt is!
