      Ro Khanna Retweeted Warren Gunnels

      I will be voting NO on the Rules package with #PayGo. It is terrible economics. The austerians were wrong about the Great Recession and Great Depression. At some point, politicians need to learn from mistakes and read economic history. @paulkrugman @StephanieKelton @RBReichhttps://twitter.com/GunnelsWarren/status/1080318713331617792 …

      Ro Khanna added,

      Warren Gunnels @GunnelsWarren
      In order for #PayGo to go into effect, it needs to pass the House. If some 18 Dems vote no, it fails. The vote will take place on Thursday. Will enough progressives have the courage to vote no on the first roadblock to #MedicareForAll, #GreenNewDeal & #CollegeForAll? Let's see. https://twitter.com/ddayen/status/1080291053930856448 …

      I thought it willfully shackled us to not making us go bankrupt. Also, can’t they waive it in any case they deem neccessary? That’s how I read it.

      Replying to @MacMargi @mediajunkie and

      Margi, the theory behind why PayGo is bad is that 1) the government can't go bankrupt, since it issues the currency, and 2) Republicans ignore debt/deficit spending anyway, so PayGo just means that their priorities get funded and ours don't.

      Ok I hear your theory but it doesn’t sound like a concrete truth. I’m not saying Paygo is wonderful, I’m saying it’s a red herring or a McGuffin in the so called “more progressive than thou” wing of the incoming DEM freshmen. Let me find that article again to double check.

      Honestly, it would prevent large parts of the progressive agenda. (The #GreenNewDeal is nearest to my heart.) I don't think progressives want to exclude anyone or appear "holier than thou." We welcome everyone!

      Green new deal will not happen without DEMS being in charge of all 3 branches. I hope everyone gets that. We’re talking 2022.

          I can’t take people who say “Corporate Dems” seriously. You’re really just an Independent trying to scam DNC money to support your Independent candidate in presidential elections. I won’t name any names.

          I can't take people who think corruption is ok seriously. You're really just paid to support the status quo and keep the money flowing into the pockets of people that work for corporations and not voters. The planet doesn't have time for you.

          Are you saying that my clients for my landscaping company are paying me to support the “status quo” whatever the fuck that is? Or is it the people who pay me to work my 4 part time jobs in the winter? I can’t understand your attack on me, personally. It’s nonsensical.

          Thanks. But since Glenn Greenwald owns the Intercept I consider it a biased publication. Cheers for the effort though!

          Didn’t know that. The article was in a tweet from R. Reich. It gives an overview of the rule, some of its history. I didn’t look into the founding of the journal before reading article.

          Fwiw I don't trust The Intercept is because Glenn Greenwald founded and runs it. Greenwald is notoriously intellectually dishonest (debating strawmen and mischaracterizing critical arguments): http://nymag.com/intelligencer/2013/06/glenn-greenwald-is-ralph-nader.html … and has become an apologist for Russia:http://nymag.com/intelligencer/2018/02/how-glenn-greenwald-made-the-russia-scandal-disappear.html …

          We only need control of two branches of gov.: the executive and legislative branches, & only for ease. At any rate, good policy can prevail if the vast public is for it. Look what happens when ACA is supported by a majority of the public despite a majority power in opposition.

          I would argue that even if the progressive bills don't pass, we will have the votes on record. With that knowledge we can primary candidates who don't agree with our progressive agenda. Then as you said in 2020 we can vote out the corporate shills.

          They said the same thing about the new deal to FDR. They said something similar to teachers in the US about wages this year. They said something similar to France last month. THEY. WERE. WRONG.
