When pressed for details on where they would implement spending cuts and what that would mean to people and the economy, they get flustered.
Or they answer it on your blog and you get flustered.
They may talk a good game about cutting the budget but even your most hard core base member won't cut defense, medicare, or social security...AKA where most of our money is being spent. What they will cut is taxes to make it seem like the government will just have to make do with less money. The result of this is an increase in deficit and debt which is sort of like putting out fire with gasoline.
So you've finally agreed that our deficit and debt is a spending problem? Glad you've finally worked that out.
