Quick history lesson....
The mantra "Deficits dont matter - we'll grow our way out of debt" was first sponcered by Dick Cheney and the GWB administration. That was their reasoning behind the first wave of tax cuts that blew up the debt.
THen they said it again when they passed a second round of tax cuts along with free prescription drugs for seniors all of which was unreconciled and blew up the debt even more.
Then Trump and Paul Ryan said the same thing about their tax cuts in Trump's first term which proceeded to blow up the debt even more.
And guess what? They're saying it again now. Trump and a non-stop parade of Republican senators on TV. And why shouldnt they? I mean - people like Tom, Boilerman, and Charles all fell for it the first three times so why not again now?
And the best part is this - when the bill comes due and the budget looks like the bedroom after a Sean Diddy freakoff - you can bet all those budget busting politicians along with their constituents on Las Vegas Message boards will all blame the debt on Food Stamps and Medicaid.....oh, and salaries of National Park Rangers.
