2. "You don't have a plan...

3. I always respond with theCongressional Progressive Caucus Budget.
Here's some of the left's plans that the right keeps saying we don't have...

On the Wisconsin level...

Here's the JS "coverage" (Saturday opinion piece, thanks "librul" JS)....

And more coverage from Express Milwaukee

On the national level, here's the Progressive Caucus Budget (the Peoples Budget)...

Here's what The Econonmist has to say about it...

http://www4.economist.com/blogs/democracyinamerica/2011

..snip..

"...Republicans are refusing to raise the national debt ceiling even though their own budget raises the national debt by $6 trillion over the next decade...The Progressive Caucus's plan would (by its own claims) balance the budget by 2021 by cutting defence spending and raising taxes, mainly on rich people"

The Republicans offer the same cure for every ailment: slash social services. You call that a plan?
