Economy House Republicans release Budget resolution with increased deficit spending

[DoctorTaco]

A budget resolution is more the goal posts for an actual budget.

The details aren’t in it yet. Once they vote and settle on a resolution, then they would decide where the (if this was chosen as the final version) 4.5 tril in tax cuts would come from and where 2 tril is trimmed off of last years budget to result in a net 1.9 tril deficit spending bill.

The goal posts is to add debt?

"At the same time, House Republicans plan to pursue deep cuts to Medicaid, the health care program that covers nearly 90 million Americans. The plan instructs the Energy and Commerce Committee, which oversees Medicaid, to come up with at least $880 billion in cuts, more than half of the reductions laid out in the budget outline"

They're not even hiding it anymore. Cut taxes for the rich, and pay for (some of) it by cutting programs for the poor. Disgusting.

president musk and the first felon are gonna gut your health insurance, your social security, and your public education just to help fund tax cuts for their billionaire donors.

this is what you wanted. this is what you voted for, all under the prospect of cheaper eggs. but i'm sure that it will all be worth it just as long as you get some mean tweets out of it. just try not to get sick or injured or anything. the billionaire boys club ain't gonna care about any of you peons. they'll be too busy counting all the extra money they'll be making that will never trickle down to you.

The Republican Balanced Budget = Cut all Medicare and Social Security, give all tax revenue directly to Israel.

Apparently. I get it’s not gonna go back to the Bill Clinton days of a surprlus in the first year, but a conservative government should at least lessen the deficit spending from their liberal counterparts.

4 year plan to get to a neutral budget would have been nice, but they gotta give corporate handouts

They are trying to cut medicaid. They are too cowardly to cut medicare because of the geriatric revolution that would follow.

 

[Dalarna3]

Yeah, fiscal responsibility is kind of a pipe dream in modern day America.

Sounds like a great deal for the you sound poors who voted for Trump. They've already lost money on Trump coin, Trump sneakers, Trump bibles made in China; and if they're older, Trump steaks, Trump University, and Trump Vodka. At this point, they likely couldn't care less that healthcare and social security are taking a hit here. They likely welcome it. He's doing it for them.

Weird, could have sworn I just saw a thread around here titled "It pisses me off that Liberals do not want to cut the budget AT ALL"

It’s different because of (R)seasons? ( am I doing it right cuckservatives?)

Why add to the deficit though? At some point we have to address it. I'm more curious in the senate budget bill as those guys usually do better.

Lmao

The Senate already showed their belly. They are cowards.

They approved Tulsi and Hegseth, there's no hope for sensible leadership from the Senate.

They just tend to be more accomplished peeps. I have never liked the house. Its where all the wild ideas usually pop up. But they are trying to implement Trump tax cuts so I don't know it will be drastically different. Let's see.
