This has always been the GOP's strategy:
1) Cut taxes for the wealthy & corporations by claiming they'll pay for themselves.
2) Explode the deficit.
3) Demand cuts to Social Security and Medicare.
4) Repeat.
Don't let them get away with it.

The corporations and the GOP have been fighting FDR's economic policies for almost a century.
Made progress with Reagan, but its taken the corporate takeover via lobbists of the congress' and state legislatures' law-writing, ALEC, the creation of the right-wing media ecosystem, etc., to push forward.
