Mission Accomplished

The Republicans' revolutionary goal to bankrupt the State, that is.

 

“It’s really a federal fiscal catastrophe in coming years,” says Chris Edwards of the Cato Institute, a libertarian-oriented think tank. “With all this stuff coming up now, it’s massive, big decisions the next president is going to have to make.”As the candidates debate the nuances of their health care plans or tax cuts, consider:

 

How can you cut taxes when the government is so deep in the red? The budget deficit is projected to top $400 billion – and that was before the bailout.

 

How can you expand health care coverage when the country is broke? The federal debt is now expected to top $11 trillion by 2010.

 

How can you focus on “earmarks” and “waste” when everyone knows they make up a meaningless fraction of the federal budget?

 

How you tackle spending without a serious discussion of serious cuts to Medicare and Social Security, which account for 43.5 percent of federal spending?

 

How can you focus on anything but war, when you inherit two conflicts with outcomes that are very much in doubt? (U.S commanders say the war in Afghanistan is going worse then ever and will require many more troops to win.)---from Politico 9/28/08
