Opposite of slippery, I am the one insisting in this thread that we put the discussion on the firmest ground.

I mostly agree with you Ib. The Republican budget is largely ideological.

The point where we disagree is on the Democratic budget. Your position is that the D plan "cuts less from programs that directly benefit the poorer members of our society, cuts slightly more from Pentagon spending, and actually still KEEPS the bush-era tax cuts in effect, and still cuts the same amount of money from the overall budget".

My position is that there is no D plan, because they haven't offered one.

They say they will craft a plan "in the coming days" and we shall take a look at it to see what it offers.
