Another thing....tax cuts do not increase the deficit, it’s runaway spending that accomplishes that dubious goal.

When Reagan took office in 1981, the IRS was taking in $500 billion per year. When he left office eight years later, the IRS was taking in $950 billion per year. And the democrats controlled the House the entire eight years.

Bingo! We hear about tax cuts, Continuing resolutions, debt ceiling increases and so forth....where are the CUTS?

Every agency, every department, every bureaucracy should be hit with a 10% reduction in budgets with exception of critical constitutional requirements such as defense and perhaps veterans affairs.

We simply cannot continue to spend at this rate. Crazy stuff.
