US Budget? We ain't got one and likely never will again.
I was watching Grapes of Wrath the other night, and I was reminded of just how back the leftist "big government good" goes. There are repeated scenes of migrant camps, filthy, run down, ruled by the bulls and local cops, usually brutally, etc.
Then the Joad family limps into a US Gummint camp, that is clean, has running water and porcelain bathroom fixtures, is run by a kindly grandfather type, etc. All of the subtlety of a sledgehammer blow.
I am convinced that the great American experiment is done, over, stick a fork into it, nice while it lasted. Trump, if he is elected will not be able to do a damn thing, the bureaucracy has been so thoroughly perverted (in every sense of the word) and the Pubbies in kongress so weak-spined that he will have no support from anyone other than the people who put him there - and all they can do is to continue to fund the federal lunacy. And his getting put in the WH is a huge hurdle, now that the dems have figured out how to cook the books and get away with it (thanks to a willing and compliant media). And that's assuming the dems allow him to even get to the election. The dems keep chumming the waters around Trump, I am truly concerned that some looney lefty will take matters into his/her/its/xe/xit hands and do something really awful.
Anyone ask Claire Wolfe about the time lately?
