Rand Paul has the floor and he's fired up.
Exactly, he just wants to cut spending that helps poor people. That’s the thing, none of these people actually care about the deficit it’s just a strategy to stop the expansion of social programs by the other party. Hilariously though there are even people on here who think they do.LOL. He's a hypocrite. He was nowhere to be found when they blew 1.5 trillion on tax cuts.

He was out there laying into Republicans' hypocrisy, so with that, he unlocks the meta-hypocrisy achievement.

Rand Paul. Smart person. Exactly what this country needs: A fiscal conservative.

Having said that, his one point about why deficits under Obama are awful but A-Okay if its a Republican President in office is spot on accurate and one that the lamestream media should be asking Goopers like Ryan if they had any nuts (they don't).
Well what’s important here is that debt doesn’t matter when Republicans run the government and give away trillions to the rich and the military, but debt is SO vitally important when Democrats run the government that we have to impose austerity and stop spending on superficial luxuries like health care and education and unemployment insurance and poverty assistance. Though of course we can’t ask the rich to pay more taxes to make up for revenue shortfalls because that would be Scary Atheist Communism.
I’m sure that’s what a smart, ethical society does with its resources, and if US quality of life has fallen from #1 in the world to somewhere in the 30s, well, at least the Koch Brothers are happy.
Gee Willakers-that sounds like Rand Paul's screed from yestwrday.
Exactly. The creation of huge deficits is just a strategy that works really well for republicans, they basically can use it to block the expansion of social programs like medicaid/SS that would undoubtedly be both beneficial and popular and keep dems in power AND they can pay off their corporate mega donors with tax cuts.Except where he conveniently forgets about The Heist and refuses to raise taxes on the rich back to a fair level.
Rand Paul is just another thief; he just has a slightly different grift.
thank god the nightmare is over and the us can spend again!!!!
