Rush Confronts Pence Over Budget Deal

Rush feels the budget bill is a bad deal:

In a Tuesday interview with Vice President Mike Pence, conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh criticized the $1 trillion bipartisan budget deal reached by Congress on Sunday, asking Pence, “what is the point of voting Republican if the Democrats are gonna continue to win practically 95% of their objectives?”

Limbaugh joined a chorus of prominent conservative media personalities in attacking the budget, which they argue is a giveaway to Democrats.

Pence defended the bill, which will fund the federal government for the next five months, calling it a “clear win for the American people” that delivers on President Donald Trump’s top priority, defense spending.

“The number one priority of President Trump is to rebuild our military, to restore the arsenal of democracy,” Pence said. “And I gotta tell you, to get Democrats in Washington, DC to agree to a $21 billion increase in a short-term budget bill … it’s no small accomplishment.”

Pence added that the budget includes the biggest increase in border security funding in a decade and a “down payment on a border wall.”

There are certain realities which are not going to change. The economic system is going to collapse. If you build an economic boom off of a credit expansion, you are leveraging the future to produce a boom in the present. Given the size and the extent of the boom, and the psychological deterioration that precludes the will to do anything about it, the collapse is practically a given.

If I were President Trump I would view my job as managing the landing. To that end, I think you would need a strong Armed Forces, since war normally follows economic contraction. I would also see securing the border as vital, to keep disease and crime at bay to the south when the havoc began. Diminishing the size and intrusiveness of regulatory government and extraneous offices would also be important, so when the collapse hits there is not an additional shock of massive government layoffs. Finally, maintaining, or even expanding private ownership of firearms would also be vital, so the overwhelmingly good populace can keep the criminality at bay.

If I were President Trump, and I were able to do all that, I would have no problem maintaining spending at present levels. I might even increase it, so as to make sure the crash happened toward the end of my term – and to make sure that when it hit it was a doozy, which would force a hard K-reset and eliminate the r-selected environment the rabbits need to perpetuate their treason.

The collapse is coming. All we can hope for is to come out of it in one piece. Everything else is meaningless by comparison.

Tell others about r/K Theory, and until we see any indication of leftism, trust in the Trump
