ISSUE #2 -Spending What We Can Afford

In 2007, Congress passed the Pay-as-you-go budgeting also known as "Paygo." It is where people can only pay for what they can afford. People feel that this knew budgeting bill will not help out the country because it will cause taxes to be raised in order for the Government to be able to afford there fundings. Americans also feel that it will make a big dent in the economy. They also think that since the families of America will follow the purchase what you can afford the government should follow.

I think that this new Paygo budget will not work because the government will not be able to follow its own rule of purchas what they can afford so they will be forced to hike up taxes like many Americans think. I also think that because of this it will hurt the economy also because Americans will be forced to spend more on the taxes and not into other goods that help boost our economy. I believe it will also restrict on our spending of National Emergencies because the government will not be able to afford it. http://www.gopac.org/
