  I didn't read the budget, and likely you didn't read it too. We can't do all things at the same time, so we have experts to take care of things. (Say, you get a CT scan, you are not going to view it and interpret it, your radiologist will.) The same with the budget: I trust the president and the Republicans, as I take their word for it.

    "I trust the president and the Republicans, as I take their word for it." That's a bad strategy for a citizen in a democracy. If you blindly believe a party or politician you can't make educated choices.

      Nobody does blindly anything. We make choices, and that is my choice. I trust the Republicans in Congress, and I am happy with their legislative agenda. Let's respect each other choices, and not denigrate anyone for being politically blind. We all have brains, personalities, education, and we all deserve respect.

        Did you do any reading about the budget? I haven't read the whole thing but it seems pretty obvious to me that main benefits will go to the highest incomes and corporations and only a small percentage to the middle class. Unless you define middle class as people with net worth in the millions.

    Interesting you make this point, because experts seem to disagree with your belief.
