I know this is not news to people who read this blog, but the point is that people who claim to care the most about the deficit - and who our ridiculous media take at their word as being "deficit hawks" - don't care at all about the deficit. 90% of what they care about is cutting taxes on rich people, and 10% of what they care about is making poor and middle class people suffer as much as possible. Deficit hawks are narcissistic sadists who want tax cuts for themselves and suffering for everybody else.
