Lies, Incoherence and Rage on Tax Cuts

[Moral Compass]

4. The goal is to create a funding crisis

There’s even more at work here.

The reason for the psychotic intensity is that the ideologues know this is the Tax Plan Two Step.

First, you drop the rates sharply on the corporations (corporations are people too...) and the extraordinarily wealthy.

Then that creates a funding crisis. Since the defense budget is a sacred cow that leaves “entitlements”: Social Security and Medicare/Medicaid.

This is the Holy Grail of libertarian/objectivism/Bicherism. They can see the promised land from here.

That is the goal—to turn the clock back to before the New Deal. That’s why they’re exploding at the slightest push back.
