The new GOP budget envisions a "$4 trillion increase in the debt limit", so yeah, $3 mil here and there do not really compare to the amount being "spent" (income lost in future budget compared with existing) on tax cuts.
Wasn't the GOP just recently hell bent on stopping an increase to the debt limit because it was so utterly awful already that the country was on the verge of collapse?
You're wasting your time if you are trying to find any consistent logic to their stated positions other than "we will say and do whatever we want to reduce taxes on he rich".
Isn’t the US GDP relative to debt all that matters? The USA is nowhere near broke or collapse (from a fiscal perspective). The GOP seems to create a boogeyman, repeat it, then use it to advance their agenda.
