You don't get to lecture on spending when you helped to add $1.5T to the deficit, Congressman.

So if you add to the National debt you can no longer do anything to stop additional debt?pic.twitter.com/A9AySIMYxJ

If budget deficits matter so much to you then why did you vote for $1.5 trillion tax cut?
-
Because tax cuts are pro-liberty and are essential. Taxation is theft. The notion of hosing the rich is just wealthy envy.
@justinamash did the moral thing by cutting taxes & is doing the moral duty of demanding the spending also be cut. -
Thanks for your views on liberty. Getting back to Rep. Amash's tweet, it's a fact that a $1.5 trillion tax cut makes fiscal responsibility way harder.
@justinamash speaks of deficit reduction as if it's his #1 issue. Clearly, as you've helped demonstrate, it's not. -
It’s a no-brainer that you have to cut spending not increase it if you’re going to cut taxes, which is clearly the message in this tweet

Serious spending cuts needed, starting with the military.

The one place most never want to cut money is the one place it’s needed.

Perhaps the voters should stop voting for Republcans and Democrats, and look to the alternative.

Ummmmm..... didn't you just vote to increase our deficit? Why cry about it now?
-
It’s been the Ryan/McConnell plan all along. Cut taxes on the rich to create larger deficits, then use the deficit as an excuse to gut Medicare, social security, Medicaid, and anything else that helps the poor

Over 1% of the US budget ($50 billion) is foreign aid spending. This isn't aid like we would think, like humanitarian aid. This money is transferred from government to government, often to prop up puppet regimes. This should be the first thing on the chopping block imo.
-
85% of that winds up going to NGOs or US based contractors and nearly all is conditional on governments doing things that we want them to do but okay let's become isolationists in an effort to reduce our budget by literally only 1%
-
Isolationist =/= non-interventionist. The US needs to start letting up on its imperialist tendency to be world police. Other nations don't involve themselves so heavily in trying to control other nations, why is the US so full of hubris that it appoints itself to the task?

Your moral standing on this would have been greatly improved had you not voted for a tax plan that will add at least a trillion dollars more to public debt. At least.

He voted against it. One of the very few.

Amash voted yes for the tax bill
