So, you are also admitting that as long as the 2 trillion dollars would help the poor, you're perfectly fine with adding 2 trillion dollars to the national debt. That's all I'm asking. Don't hypocritically blame Republicans for adding 2 trillion dollars onto the national debt when you would be perfectly fine with doing it yourself. You need to make it a rich vs poor thing instead of complaining about adding 2 trillion dollars onto the debt, which you would be OK with.
I never said that -- but thanks for putting words in my mouth. What I was saying, was that doing nothing at all, eliminates that extra $1.5 trillion the Republicans think is fine to add to the national credit card to give rich people tax cuts. In other words, if this bill fails, the nation wouldn't be adding that $1.5 trillion to debt; the middle class would pay lower taxes than with this GOP plan and the rich would have the same tax-rates they have now, which aren't so high in the scheme of things.
