a $3.5 trillion dumb idea
October 5, 2017
Rick Nolan just can’t help himself. Despite representing a district that overwhelmingly voted for Trump, he continues to move dangerously left.
The Bernie Sanders single-payer warrior just voted for the Progressive Caucus Budget.
What does this vote do? Other than seriously endanger his chances for reelection?
- Increases spending by $3.5 trillion
- Allows Minnesota to implement single-payer health care
- Hikes up the death tax on small business owners
- Gives DC bureaucrats a pay raise
- Literally guts defense funding for the war on terror
- Adds a carbon tax on hardworking Minnesota families
- Increases prices at the gas pump…for hardworking Minnesota families
The Good News: Radical Rick will stay in the good graces of his mentors, Nancy Pelosi and Bernie Sanders.
The Bad News (for him): actual voters in the Iron Range would have roundly rejected this budget…much like they will do to Rick himself next November.
