    Tomorrow I will also vote No on the rules package, which is trying to slip in #PAYGO. PAYGO isn’t only bad economics, as @RoKhanna explains; it’s also a dark political maneuver designed to hamstring progress on healthcare+other leg. We shouldn’t hinder ourselves from the start.https://twitter.com/rokhanna/status/1080472399123042304 …

    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.

        Paygo is simply fiscal responsibility. Spending without limits is extremely irresponsible. This might put a damper on certain bills, but the facts are simple. New legislation must also be effectively budgeted for.

        Make it a constitutional amendment so REPUBLICANS ALSO have to adhere to it. There is no point in one side hamstringing itself while the other side goes full bore every time it can.

        Both parties overspend. Obama and Dems just went bat shit crazy for 8 years. Republicans haven't done much better but Republicans are enacting positive economic policies unlike Obama. Fact is the economy would get even better if both sides would stop intervening.

        OH! My old major economics, Okay let hear the "positive economic policies" coming from the right in the last 20 years! Last I checked the only thing between us and a 2008 great depression was the new deal and great society programs. But I digress, I'm sure you will enlighten!

        Non-war, non-economic crisis, deficit spending is a Reagan and after invention the has ONLy been done by Republicans. Clinton ran budget surpluses, Obama had to clean up W's economic mess.
