If it isn't in their best interest, they'll want to put the barrel in their mouth and pull the trigger themselves. Being smart enough isn't a fair test for Muricans. The stupid is very wide and extends very deep.
Considering this is basically the same budget that Ryan offered in 2010 & 2012 & they both went down in flames, I'm hoping it won't come to that. People are starting to wake up & smell the plutocracy.

Won't someone think of the children?
