In fact, some of the Budget Committee\u2019s Republican members have told reporters in recent days that they want their plan to be deliberately vague, allowing them to avoid the criticism that was leveled on the Ryan budget when it was released last Congress. These members don\u2019t want to own a budget that proposes tax reform that would dramatically shift wealth from the middle class to the ultra-rich. And they don\u2019t want to be forced to defend a budget that strips health insurance from tens of millions of Americans, putting working families one illness away from financial collapse.<\/p>\n<p>However, it is clear the Republican budget would do all that and more.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>This article has a link to the report on The <a title=\"Senate Budget Committee Blog\" href=\"http:\/\/www.budget.senate.gov\/democratic\/public\/index.cfm\/\" target=\"_blank\">Senate Budget Committee Blog<\/a>.\u00a0 Who knew there was a blog?\u00a0 It appears to be something invented by Bernie Sanders.\u00a0 I am impressed by how he is using social media very effectively to get his message out without having to depend on the lame stream media.\u00a0 One might actually be able to\u00a0 run a successful presidential campaign in 2016 wwith the help of these techniques.<\/p>\n<p>By the way, here is a <a title=\"Link to the report posted on the blog\" href=\"http:\/\/www.budget.senate.gov\/democratic\/public\/index.cfm\/blog?ID=b5809bf3-e391-4395-a8fd-44f9387265e1\" target=\"_blank\">link to the report of the report<\/a>.\u00a0 Here is a link to the actual document <a title=\"PDF version of the actual 10 page report.\" href=\"http:\/\/www.budget.senate.gov\/democratic\/public\/_cache\/files\/c0ac2507-0cf5-47c6-a303-54457c82e666\/enzi-budget-reaction.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">ROBIN HOOD IN REVERSE: HOW THE REPUBLICAN BUDGET PLAN IS A GIFT TO THE BILLIONAIRE CLASS AND WILL HURT THE MIDDLE CLASS, SENIORS, AND THE ENVIRONMENT<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Politicus USA has the article In Blistering New Report Bernie Sanders Exposes The Gimmicks And Fraud In The GOP Budget.
