        Wait so are you saying if you cut revenue and leave spending the same, that results in bigger deficits and more borrowing? What happened to magical, trickle-down pixie dust?

        do homework before before thinking you solved the budget http://ssa.gov "Social Security's total income is projected to exceed its total cost through 2021, as it has since 1982. The 2016 surplus of total income relative to cost was $35 billion. "https://www.ssa.gov/oact/trsum/

        Here is an Alternative to help improve the GDP. It has shown that GDP & daylight savings has on average, an inverse relationship. The less daylight savings the higher GDP gets.pic.twitter.com/1gXCDliQ51
