We have a slate of Presidential candidates who have no plan for dealing with this problem. There is only one economic plan out there that balances the budget. One. 's plan, for instance, would increase the debt by $6.5 trillion through 2021, and doesn't anticipate an actual balanced budget until the middle of the century. That's 40 years from now, folks. The Ryan Plan, the best to come out of Congress, is slightly "better", envisioning a balanced budget by 2040. To think that we can continue to kick this can down the road without severe consequences is very naive.

I don't understand how this is acceptable to Conservatives. It is failure.
