Ted Cruz asks Treasury to approve $200 billion tax cut without Congress - Lemmy.World

Do you think congress may have forgotten how their job works? Like I remember learning the importance of congress in middle school. Power of purse and all that. Why is the congress petitioning the president for legislation? Can we please replace the congressmen who don’t understand what their job description is? Every day in the news its just “Legislator asking someone else to do their job” “Legislature confused on how laws are made” “legislator claiming the presidents office is just better at making laws”

Do American care about another few hundred billion in debt? The interest on past debt is a trillion dollars, Biden proposed a 4T inflation reduction bill, which the interest would be more than 200b on.

Every politician takes on more debt than the last, so I assumed Americans don’t care about debt loads.

You really don’t see the difference between this and Biden’s infrastructure bill?

Are you for real?

I do, I just see a lot of debt either way. Surely if you wanted balanced budgets at least one party would support them.
