Let’s get this in laymen’s terms. Is Ron Paul just another practioner of Voodpoo politics?
Paul is two-faced and inconsistent at best.
The whole system is corrupt. What “extra” money not allocated? Better yet - WHAT BUDGET? The automatic budgeting system set up by the DEMOCRATS to kick the lack of a budget, insane spending, down the road that automatically just jacks up spending levels each fiscal year. Of course with a system of “budgeting” like that, there is going to be “slack” - it is intentional to build in an automatic slush fund for legislators (or the President if the porker lawmakers neglect to pend it up).
The reality - what constitutional grounds is this form of budgeting? How about a budget that is limited to constitutional government, and that sets legitimate budgets, and provides no vote-buying slush fund. Unspent money should go to pay down the debt or be refunded to taxpayers (real taxpayers, not those who get taxpayer-funded bonuses).
