Possibly a meat axe is strictly what is required, contemplating how lengthy this has been occurring.
Again in 2009, proper after Obama was sworn in as president, Democrats handed a large spending invoice of virtually a trillion {dollars}, which they claimed was an ‘financial stimulus’ invoice. In actual fact, it was cash that the Democrats would use to line the pockets of their allies and favourite organizations.
On the time, Chuck Schumer defended the spending and the entire ‘porky’ amendments within the invoice.
The New York Post reported on the time:
SCHUMER: AMERICANS DON’T MIND A LITTLE PORK
What’s fallacious with just a little pork in a greater than $800 billion financial stimulus invoice?
That’s apparently the stance taken by Democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer.
“And let me say this to the entire chattering class that a lot focuses on these little, tiny, sure, porky amendments, the American folks actually don’t care,” Schumer mentioned on the Senate ground. “The American folks care much more that there’s a proposal within the invoice, this one I pushed, that provides a $2,500 credit score to households who pay tuition to place their children by school. Nice reduction.
“They care much more about that than about some small provision within the invoice that shouldn’t be there as a result of the tax reduction from tuition prices that they’re going to get means much more to them. They care extra a couple of provision that retains the lecturers of their colleges.”
Right here’s the video:
This is a superb reminder of what introduced us to the place we at the moment are. The American folks have been calling for this type of reform for years and it’s lastly right here. Schumer has been fallacious this whole time. The American folks do care in regards to the porky spending.
