For every ten dollars that the federal government collects in tax revenue, it is borrowing about
seven dollars.
And just to put that into perspective, if you are a family making fifty thousand dollars
a year, that would be like borrowing $35,000 every year.
Now you might be able to do that for a year, or even a few years. But eventually that debt
is going to come collapsing down on you.
And that's where we are in the federal government.
We are on an unsustainable course, and we have to get our fiscal house in order.
The House Republicans have put forward a serious and responsible approach.
And we are challenging and we are urging our colleagues on the other side of the aisle
to join us in this effort.
It is critical to America.
