With record deficit spending, the Republicans OF COURSE, wouldn't go along with another 70 Billion increase in spending by the feds.
That's the teaser to make you think that "we're really getting a good deal here!". But you're not, because that's not actual savings. That's vapor money that was never approved for spending, by anybody. So there is no savings - actual savings - in that proposal.
What was offered was another year of the same record spending as this year. In other words -- no savings compared to this year, whatsoever.
Yeah, that's a great compromise there, Harry!
