GOP lawmaker stresses urgency of party's agenda: 'We got serious work to do'

To the GOP... This is not the time to play your political games or to seek some kind of power in DC. You better pay attention to the message voters sent in November.

“Beef up defense?” We’re spending almost a trillion a year on defense and have been spending the same amount, adjusted for inflation, since 1945. The DoD can’t pass an audit but this guy wants to give them even more. China only started spending $25 billion on defense a few years ago. They had no economy to fund it before. We see Russia’s pathetic excuse for a military yet this guy thinks a trillion a year isn’t enough. He has military bases in his district, right? That’s why. Same old BS.

Since we are over budget why do we need tax cuts for less revenue, just stupid? Only helps the rich. Balance the budget before tax cuts.

[@OriginalWhiteDevil]

The federal government took in record tax revenue after the Trump tax cuts. It's not a tax revenue problem. It's a spending problem. The government could tax everyone at 100%, and it wouldn't make a difference.

[@FosterTravis1071]

​@OriginalWhiteDevil cutting taxes (trickle down), only affected the wealthiest of the Americans. The middle class was left behind to become working poor. Crack open the history book and see how much it's truly costing Americans to be a trickle down nation.

[@gen_z_hippichikk]

​@@OriginalWhiteDevil in reality, receipts were increasing already at annual record levels every year, and all Trump's tax cuts did was slow the rate at which receipts were growing. 🤔

[@troutman-sw9qc]

​@OriginalWhiteDevil So you are saying that if I make less money I will have more money to spend? That's stupid.

[@Jimmy-yu9xy]

@@OriginalWhiteDevil Wrong! Revenues are 2% below Trump’s prediction for 2024/2025. The rich got richer and the revenues received dropped 2% cumulatively. Tax reductions add to the national debt. However, budget reductions will help our future debt burden.

The main thing is to get Congress sorted so it can vote on President Trump's promises to the lower paid who voted for him. And put him in office. Promises made will be promises kept. Mainly cutting our taxes (funded by the rich and wealthy who can all afford to pay more), lowering the cost of living and cutting Gov spending to reduce our ridiculous National Debt.

*Senator Bernie Sanders on Economic Inequality in America* 1. Wealth Distribution: "A nation will not survive morally or economically when so few have so much, while so many have so little." 2. Political Power: "Are we prepared to take on the enormous political power of the billionaire class or do we continue to slide into economic and political oligarchy?" 3. Middle-Class Struggles: "For 40 years, the American middle class has been disappearing. Millions of people are working longer hours for lower wages despite a huge increase in technology and productivity. And what we have seen during that period is a massive transfer of trillions of dollars from the middle class to the top one-tenth of 1 percent of America - massive wealth and income inequality, where you have 99 percent of all new income today going to the top 1 percent." 4. Corporate Greed: "In the United States today we have the most unequal wealth and income distribution of any major country on earth -- worse than at any time since the 1920s. This is an economy that must be changed in fundamental ways." 5. Collective Action: "Let us wage a moral and political war against the gross wealth and income inequality... let us understand that when we stand together, we will always win." 6. Economic Justice: "This is what income inequality means in America, and why the gap between the very rich and everyone else is growing wider. According to a recent study, CEO pay is now 295 times more than the pay of a typical worker. In 1965, the differential was 20 times. We must create an economy that works for all, not just the top 1%." 7. Systemic Change: "Now is the time to alter our government. Now is the time to stop the movement toward oligarchy. Now is the time to create a government which represents all Americans and not just the 1%... No more excuses. We must all become involved in the political process." 8. Societal Dysfunction: "Today, the United States is No. 1 in corporate profits, No. 1 in CEO salaries, No. 1 in childhood poverty and No. 1 in income and wealth inequality in the industrialized world." 9. Unsustainable Economy: "Today, the top one-tenth of 1% owns nearly as much wealth as the bottom 90%. The economic game is rigged, and this level of inequality is unsustainable. We need an economy that works for all, not just the powerful." 10. "Message to the billionaire class: You can't have it all!"
