Republican House, you only have 1 power, use it.

 REPUBLICANS, REFUSE TO PLAY THE RIGGED BUDGET GAME

FREEZE SPENDING AT CURRETN LEVELS, REFUSE TO PASS ANY NEW SPENDING

The annual budget game is on and it is a tired display of Government corrupt practices. Everything is intentionally put off until a supposed emergency and then a huge omnibus budget is offered days or hours before a threatened government shut down. A budget loaded with pork and special interest spending. Of course, it is then the radical Republicans who are threatening a closing of government and are a threat to democracy. It is all a tired sick joke. 

While the republicans have a slim majority and do not control the Senate or the presidency, they have no power to pass any legislation, they have no power to cut spending and they should just realize they have only one power and then use it clearly and without any hesitation or negotiation. 

They should just pass a continuing resolution of government spending at the current level, for a month, six months or for the entire year. Then they should refuse to pass ANY additional spending or any bill that costs any additional money or infringes on the rights and finances of Americans. Sadly, they will have lots of time as I doubt that there is any such bills out there. Then it will be up to the Senate and the president to shut down or approve. In effect, they will be able to freeze spending for as long as they are in office. If they are voted out, then they will have at least shown that they tried.

They should demand that they will only change this practice, if the budget is opened up and individual items are voted on, 1 at a time, even if it takes several years to accomplish. They must realize there is no good will on the other side, and even in much of their own leadership. It is all about keeping the gravy train going.

I understand that those who took the step to end the present Speaker realize that the nation is declining, it it has a $1.5 trillion deficit, debt of $33 trillion and climbing. Interest rates and payments to service the debt are skyrocketing and the handwriting is on the wall. this whole economy is about to self destruct, if no action is taken and sadly, it may already be too late.

At least they will have satisfied their conscious about doing nothing. They are indeed a minority, most of the others just want to keep the good times rolling and hope that they will be out of office, retired on their ranch when the end comes.

The demise of Democratic socialism is destined to collapse of its own weight, promising benefits and spending for special interests, without limit to buy votes is the end result of socialism, it is destined to fail, eventually. And that eventually is coming now.
