The problem will not be solved by cutting billions of dollars from the current system to give tax breaks to the wealthiest one percent. So while the Senate fiddles, and Rome burns, 2018 will be here before you know it and the House and Senate will both be facing elections. Their base may be dumb and stupid but even they will be asking the question, "what have you done for ME lately.) Ford announced today that they are cutting jobs. There will be no infrastructure bill passed. No wall on the border. No NAFTA renegotiated prior to the 2018 election. The GOP will have nothing to run on since they no longer have President Obama as the boogeyman. Their base will have Gorsuch but their kids will have no jobs when they leave college, and no healthcare. Bless them.
