Quote:Sen. Rand Paul gave a fiery speech on the senate floor Wednesday, blasting his own party for wanting to pass a budget that would add trillions to the national debt all in the name of repealing Obamacare.

“The more things change, the more they seem to stay the same. Republicans won the White House. Republicans control the Senate. Republicans control the House,” Paul began.

“And what will the first order of business be for the new Republican majority? To pass a budget that never balances […] To pass a budget that will add $9.7 trillion dollars of new debt over ten years,” Paul said.

The budget passed 51-48. Rand Paul was the only GOP no vote. They crammed the budget into the motion to open debate on repeal of ObamaCare to try to bury their misdeeds.



Alright Trump train'ers ... you gonna spin this into some great news somehow now that it is Team Red posting up trillion dollar deficits? Or are you going to raise just as much hell as if a Democrat did this garbage?

GOP legislatures do dumb things

It's part of draining the swamp I think

The Republican party has never been interested in reducing debt. They run on that platform because it sounds nice. They just want to spend money on different things.

I stand with Rand.

This is ridiculous.

I was so busy oppressing women, minorities and Big Gay I barely even noticed.

I hope the GOP screws us all to hell and the Democrats do nothing but sit back and watch the dumpster fire. Burn baby burn.

Now this is what I call winning.

I don't. Real people, you and I included, suffer if someone ***** things up. I will never root for economic or social destruction in the name of the party I more closely associate with winning elections.

At the end of the day, I just want to make a good wage and enjoy life.

If he costs us the repeal of Obamacare, I hope Kentucky has a recall provision.

Yep.

The problem is Republicans want to spend money to give to corporate welfare or to give to other country, and not spend the money where it is needed. For the people of this country and for infrastructure upgrades.

Here is my question for you. We have the highest corporate income tax rate in the developed world. We are losing jobs offshore. And that hurts the poor and middle class. But if we try lowering the corporate tax rate to world levels, you seem inclined to scream that we are giving money away to corporations.

So what's your solution?

How about we audit the Fed?

The solution is for Jacksonville State to join CUSA, obviously.

Do you believe anything the establishment says? Actually, the EU countries have a much higher corporate tax rates than us. Many of the wealthy and big corporations have so many tax loopholes to were they pay below 10% of taxes. Some found ways paying no taxes.
