@RonDeSantis They love to play with numbers. Real cuts are now, not in a decade! Time to start slashing the waste.

When Congress talks about “cutting” $1.5 trillion, that represents the proposed reduction from current spending projections over a ten year period…

It is not a reduction in spending by $1.5 trillion compared to current year expenditures.

Also, “cuts” over a ten year window…

AND this is assuming no recession over a decade or major world events, which essentially never happened in history.

The statement is part of a public discourse on government spending and budget cuts. It suggests that immediate spending cuts are necessary to address inflation, engaging in a broader debate about fiscal policy.

  1. Principle 1:
    I will strive to do no harm with my words and actions.
    The statement does not directly cause harm but implies urgency in addressing inflation through spending cuts.
  2. Principle 3:
    I will use my words and actions to promote understanding, empathy, and compassion.
    It lacks detailed explanation or empathy towards those who might be affected by spending cuts. [-1]
  3. Principle 4:
    I will engage in constructive criticism and dialogue with those in disagreement and will not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments.
    The statement is a response in a dialogue but does not engage in personal attacks. [+1]
