Senate bill adds $1.3 trillion more to national debt than House version.

One issue that cannot be entirely attributed to decisions made by the Senate parliamentarian include the revised bill’s outsized deficit impact: “The bill violates the House framework of $1 of tax cuts for $1 of spending cuts (with 2.6% economic growth), increases the deficit by $761 billion without interest and more $1.3 trillion with interest after changes were made in base text and a wrap-around amendment was adopted,” the memo says. “This was not what Leader [John] Thune and Speaker [Mike] Johnson promised.”

Keep ping ponging it between the House and Senate until it doesn’t even resemble what was intended.

Merkowski and Collins are killing us.

These fricking clowns. Thats why we need individual bills. It’s so nice to spend other people’s money while your pockets get lined.

McConnell’s boy Thune doin’ work …. typical GOP sellouts …. extracting their requisite indulgences via their cabal. Same cabal that Turtle was running, including Murkowski and occasionally Collins

In this case it’s the green new deal lobby and the medical industry.

We can barely get 51 votes. 60 is never happening with this senate.

Ok, so all the spending bills fail and the people win.

House Bill: bad
Senate Bill: worse
Massie Bill: Democrats win and rape your wallet and your children
Congrats to all of our useful idiots who are falling for the commie, cuck, and ronbot propaganda.
Your sons and daughters (or more likely grandsons and granddaughters because this board is mostly boomers) thank you for their future severed genitals and aborted TdA fetuses.

Learn how money works. The house and senate bill are a huge increase in the amount of wealth that will be stolen from the American citizens.
Since Trump is claiming to "cut taxes" while increasing spending, it means he has a policy of inflation to pay for it. Meaning, everything you buy is going to get more expensive and your cost of living is going to increase again.

Do you retards seriously not grasp the concept of 60 votes?
It is posted here a dozen times a day.
I’ll dumb it down.
What happens when we put 1 bill at a time up and it needs 60 votes?
Hint: it doesn’t pass
Individual bills is a relic of the 1990s.
The sooner you retards comprehend that the better.
Your next thought should be, okay, how do we get 60 votes or get rid of the filibuster? Because that is how you “fix” the system. Not by melting like a bitch and posting Massie and Rand memes.

Nope. The house formula works. The senate has a few holier-than-thou greedy fricks that don’t want to let go of the green new deal incentives.

Plenty of Republicans in office would love to have a vote to extend the current tax brackets, it fails because we can’t get to 60 and then complain that it’s the Dems fault and we did all we could.
Meanwhile we all get screwed.

No it doesn't work, it increases debt - by a lot.
