Eric Cantor: We need to cut entitlements!
Paul Ryan: We need to cut entitlements!
Joe Scarborough: We need to cut entitlements!
George W. Bush: We need to cut entitlements!
Berry Goldwater: We need to cut entitlements!
This refrain coming from current as well as Republicans out
of the past is getting boring. I am sure the President will address this point in his SOTU address; he will do it a non confrontational way. His answer will be, no we don’t! Social security pays for its self. We sent our young
people into battle and now that they are wounded, we need to take care of them.
We have mentally challenged people who would starve in the street if we didn’t
care for them. WE have people who have lost their jobs and need assistance
until they can find another job. We are a rich country and can easily afford those
programs we want to afford, which is exactly the dynamic the Republicans want up
set. They run up the debt with an unwanted war and many other crazy spending
programs. They let the infrastructure
crumble so that we do not feel save driving over bridges, or riding on outdated
trains, and have children going to substandard schools.
This is exactly what Republicans are doing to destroy the
Post Office; over burden it, by demanding they pay a long-term debt (75 years
of pensions) in one year. They used Darrell Issa’s legislation to create a debt
crisis in the Post Office. Their solution is to destroy the post office by
turning it over to private business, which just happens to be what the delivery
service lobby wants. As just explained, they built up a huge federal government
debt, which Obama has cut dramatically in the last four years, and are now
demanding we pay off all of that debt
all at once. The plan; pay off the
debt by cutting entitlement programs. No more taxes only cuts to
entitlements, which they call welfare. After
all, it is a debt crisis; no it’s not!!! There
is no need to cut entitlements!
