Candidates need to talk about the deficit
How do they plan on lowering taxes, revising the tax system and at the same time increase spending on strengthening the military, building giant walls to keep people out of this country, free college for all students that qualify, increase medical for all that don't have insurance.
Great sound bites for someone trying to get elected, but get real.
What about the federal deficit of $18 trillion? The politicians never talk about how they plan to reduce this deficit. The debates never seem to bring up the deficit. Why not?
Can you imagine buying an expensive house, car and jewelry and not paying for them? You would go to jail for sure.
