Hey Steny- you’re telling us we can’t find $80B in $3T of federal spending? Don’t you Dems get tired of lying to the American people?
How about telling us about the economic impact of endless $1T annual federal budget deficits, tens of trillions in unfunded entitlement liabilities, and endless money-printing by the Fed.
Nahh…. you don’t want to collapse things just yet, right?
