national debt

Almost all Americans agree that the process to pass a federal budget has become more difficult than scaling Mt. Everest.

In 2018, all federal appropriation bills (with bipartisan support) have passed out of their respective committees.

How debt is shaping up to be our undoing.

President Donald Trump has proposed a trillion-dollar plan for infrastructure investment. 

Now that 2017 is in the books, Americans across the country are working to keep their New Year’s resolutions so that 2018 might be better than years past.

Global debt levels reached an astronomical $217 trillion in the first quarter of 2017.

In Washington, D.C. – the Turkeys are most certainly organized. And have been for s VERY long time. And the American free market economy – is under constant arial assault therefrom.

Trump’s “skinny budget” may not be passed into law verbatim, lawmakers should work with the president to do the right thing and keep intact the intent and spirit behind the budget outline.

President Trump has issued his preliminary federal budget proposal looking to next 2018 fiscal year. What it shows very clearly is that there will likely be no attempt to reduce the size and cost of most of the American interventionist-welfare state.

Once again the United States government is rapidly approaching a fiscal debt ceiling: After March 16, 2017, Uncle Sam will not be legally allowed to borrow any more money to cover its budget deficits, unless Congress votes to raise the debt limit.

Control of the White House is shifting from the hands of President Barack Obama to celebrity television personality Donald Trump, potentially bringing huge reforms to the way the federal government does business.

President Barack Obama has doubled the national debt – from $10 trillion to $20 trillion. He’s added more debt than all of his forty-three presidential predecessors combined.

Public opinion polls show that 70% of the public believes the electoral college should be eliminated and replaced by a national popular vote. No change should be made without first understanding why the electoral college was created.
