Any responsible American understands how a budget works. You can’t spend more than you take in. If you do, you have to spend less, or you’ll lose everything in the long run.
Somehow, the people we send to Washington D.C. — supposedly with superior intellects and our best interest in mind — haven’t learned that lesson. Every year we elect people who promise to balance our budget and release us from the constant threat of increasing debts, and nearly every year those very people go to Washington and spend more money, and put us deeper into debt.
All but one, it seems. One Republican legislator is finally trying to create real consequences for members of congress should they fail to balance the budget, and for once they, not the American people, will be the ones hurting should they fail.
To see the legislation, continue reading on the next page:
President Clinton didn’t balance the budget he just signed the Bill the congress at that time balanced the budget!
Trump in 2016!!!!!
Work 40 hours a week or don’t get paid. Stop the campaining and do your job.
Far too long overdue…will bill get through?
Something else slick Willie did that most have forgotten. Added a .05¢ tax per gallon on gas. Soon as they supposedly had a surplus, instead of paying off debt it was”What can we spend it on?”
Stop army, stop imperialostic wars.
put that on Nov. ballot, let the people decide.
Well needed.
Or make them all live on 11 bucks an hour oh let’s not forget taxes!!!!!
The surplus was there when Bush took office so instead of keeping things balanced he used it all up
