When It Comes To Spending, Rand Paul Is a RINO

[critter]

It's like Rand Paul said, (and anyone with a pair of eyes and ears can tell you), whichever party was the one that ranted and raved about fiscal irresponsibility, spending and debt while they were out of power, completely forgets their prior admonitions and lip service to fiscal responsibility once they get their hands on the reins.

The only difference between these two sides is skin deep. Yeah, certain folks like us that have skin in the game on a particular issue might choose one over the other...otherwise, with very few exceptions, they are all slimy creatures of the same ilk.

Hear Here! I think there's a secret prerequisite test involved, with a couple of outliers given waivers and allowed in - just to throw us off.

It is the purpose of the Democrat Party at this point in history to establish a socialist revolution. It is the purpose of the Republican Party to pretend that they oppose this. All else is theatre.

In about 15 years the service on our debt will dominate our budget and we will not be able to fund the 2 other largest items (SS/Medicare and Defense). At that time all the options will suck a giant donkey dick (think Greece but with 400,000 million guns). The math is simple but unavoidable.

I think of this all the time. If there is an economic collapse it could come to this damned near immediately.

Now every thinking person is aware of why the government wants us all disarmed.

My wife is preparing me for the inevitable by putting them in the juicer with everything else.

There's an old saying "If the bank loans you $10k, they own you. If the bank loans you $10M, you own the bank."
As long as we have nukes and the baddest military on the planet, our debt doesn't matter because nobody can "collect" without mutually assured destruction (either militarily, economically or both).
Every major economy in the world depends on maintaining the status quo, even if a superpower "defaults" on their debt it'll never be known outside of a few people.

You don't even need a military for MAD, just sell them your mortgage debt.
