What party responsible for national debt?The Republicans are refusing to fund our outstanding debt by trying to hold future budgets hostage. Under Joe Biden, the debt has grown at a rate of 8.79% so far. Under Donald Trump, it grew 40.43% due largely to an unfunded tax cut. Under Barack Obama it grew at 69.98% and under George W. Bush 105.08%, the latter due to another tax cut at the same time as starting two wars. Under William J. Clinton it grew 31.64% and under George H.W. Bush 54.39%.
Tim Steller’s coverage of the April 18th meeting was disturbing. Since when have bad manners been a way to be a participant in a democracy?

Government is subsidizing TEP and the “underground coalition” by passing off these “undergrounding’ costs to all ratepayers, the majority of whom, gain nothing but increased fees. Passage of proposition 412 will lead to increased profits for TEP, increase property values for wealthy homeowners, and increased energy bills for middle and low-income families. I’m voting “NO” to ensure TEP and the “underground coalition” pay their fair share.
