"After voting" (without even reading it) "for a federal stimulus plan that cost nearly $1 trillion, U.S. Rep. Charles Wilson Jr. has announced his support for legislation requiring any new government spending be matched with budget cuts or savings elsewhere."
It's a little late now!
This bill is a smoke and mirrors circus trick.
"Also exempt from paygo is discretionary spending, which in 2010 is expected to account for 40 percent of the federal budget, with the House Appropriations Committee just approving a 12 percent increase in non-defense discretionary spending.
Congress also can take steps to exempt other spending from paygo. For example, the 2010 budget resolution passed last week reclassified as discretionary spending a $2 billion increase in heating assistance for low-income households, thereby making it exempt from paygo."
His votes for massive increased deficit spending will be a tax on us, our kids and our grandchildren (increased tax and inflation), but now he wants to be (viewed as, if people fall for this joke of a bill) fiscally conservative.Seems pretty disingenuous.
