Republicans are no longer fiscally responsible
William F. Buckley was the most articulate spokesperson for conservatism, but has what he espoused been compromised?
What about the tax bill increasing the national debt by $1.5 trillion with no promise of recovery? The theory is the deficit can be restored with job creation, which may not happen with beneficiaries in business and industry having many demands for increased income.
The bill that passed Congress will cost the budget $300 billion during the next two years. Whatever happened to the Tea Party insisting on a balanced budget?
President George W. Bush entered office with a $336 billion surplus and left with a $1.3 trillion deficit. What is conservative about that? Republicans believing their party stands for fiscal responsibility should consider leaving.
