I just posted a comment to this person regarding this (a later post than yours). I think yours may have gotten his/her attention better with the larger print and the bold style. I’m tired of hearing these people crying about McCain voting against the tax cut when that is not the truth.
Congress will never produce a bill that has reduced spending in it, other than for national defense.
The entitlement programs are the third rail.
So the only thing to do is take away the money.
Lower taxes and they have to quit spending. Deficit spending only goes so far and then the settlement day arrives.
Saying that there was no provision for spending cuts is a cop out. In short, it is BS.
Correction: he DID vote against the tax cut. That IS the truth. You are merely justifying his reason for doing so- A position I don't share btw.
