        Eliminating needed social services while aligning fiscal policy in favor of your wealthy donors isn't our first choice, try again.

        Balancing the budget would require reducing all spending not just social programs. He has wanted balanced budget long before he had donors.

        And what is the human and environmental cost of this balanced budget? Not everything is about $$ #mn02 #cd2cares

        The human cost is that a great number of lives will improve and more jobs that bring ppl from lower to middle class.

        There is a big difference between rhetoric and reality. The cuts in this budget will take toll on elderly, poor, disabled.

        not giving huge tax cuts to top donors and actually working to help people would be a start.

        Fighting to bring down the deficit/debt is worth it,regardless.We're addicted to spending and people don't even see it. Cuts are the answer.

        Once we get billionaires to pay their more than their secretaries, then I'm willing to talk about cuts.

        By cutting Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security and increasing defense spending beyond allowable caps. Seems like funny math to me

        Under 44 it grew almost 1 trillion/yr. Some cuts wouldn't bring it to pre Pres Obama levels

        Point taken but somewhat misleading given Republican control of House after 2010 midterms.

        And misleading because of the fucked up economy inherited from GWB and his staff economic geniuses.

        I have no problem with this, but cutting medicaid and social security is a morally corrupt way to do this. #moralresistance #vote2018
