I'm sorry if I'm going to offend anyone but... You stupid idiots!!! You're burning our food jacka$$!!

Ok ... I may have to stand corrected. Re-reading, if this is the correct version of the amendment they're voting on: http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/D?c112:2:./te...

Section 5 looks like it addresses the threat of arbitrary tax increases to cover overspending.

Section 5. A bill to increase revenue shall not become law unless two-thirds of the whole number of each House shall provide by law for such an increase by a rollcall vote.

The balance budget amendment is a farce! We can not limit Congress' spending if we don't also limit the amount of taxes they can impose. Just what do you think will happen under this new amendment being proposed if the federal budget is 30% of GDP and taxes 20%? Do you really think they would cut 10% of the budget? Hell no, they would impose taxes to make up the difference.

Spending AND Taxes MUST be capped together!!

This latest round of budget nonsense is just that, nonsense. They're arguing over reducing the deficit by 1.2T over 10 years. That's 120B per year at a time when the annual deficit is predicted to be around 1.3T. So, while we're adding 9-12T to the debt, we're looking for ways to pat ourselves on the back for offsetting 1.2T. WOW!!!

I hate to say it, but I think this is a hoax.
