Federal Budget
We hear talk of trillions over here and billions over there, of government shutdowns, of cutting $100 billion from domestic, non-defense, discretionary spending. What the heck is that anyway? You might be thinking “Wait, I might actually like that stuff… is a $100 billion cut going to hurt?” We’ll find the answer and tame the budget beasts in “Budgets and Deficits and Debt, Oh My!”
Then we’ll compare two different budgets and visions for America — the progressive People’s Budget and the GOP’s austerity budget.
