USA The Republican budget joke
Quote:
AT LEAST the graphic designers put some thought into the budget plan released by US House Republicans last week. The 19-page document features attractive typography, and it uses simple lines and circles to link concepts such as "increases energy exploration" with images of solar panels.


The ideas end there. Despite its billing as an alternative to President Obama's spending proposal, the plan - dubbed "The Republican Road to Recovery" - fails at the basic function of a budget: to spell out where money should go.
Whatever its merits, Obama's budget makes clear how quickly he intends to move on healthcare and renewable energy, and how he would pay for it. The House Republicans, instead of proposing any numbers, offer a vaporous collection of Sunday gab-show talking points.

The GOP's Pretend Budget
