| + | *'''The debt deal does not cut spending enough.''' Moran: Debt Deal Not Good For America | ||
| + | [http://www.ksallink.com/?cmd=displaystory&story_id=18486&format=html Jerry Moran, Sen R-KS. "Debt deal not good for America." KSALLink.com. August 2nd, 2011]: "This plan may be considered a good deal in Washington, D.C., but it is not a good deal for the future of America. There are virtually no spending cuts in this bill – in fact, it only slows slightly the growth of spending. The amount of spending that is reduced is about $21 billion next year. Given the fact that we borrow $4 billion more each day than what we take in – those savings will disappear in less than a week. It’s unfortunate the country has been through this long drama about raising the debt ceiling and it’s even sadder that the accomplishments are so few.” | ||
