Multiply this by three and add one.
Domestic spending? Screw that. It's for wimps!
Republicans want more Defense money so they can bomb stuff. Democrats are like, "Whoa—hold on, dude." If the only place the GOP will drop some dough is on the military, Democrats are threatening to block the whole budget (i.e. all 13 appropriations bills). If the two sides can't broker a deal by September 30—even if it's just a Continuing Resolution—no one gets anything and the government shuts down.
Jay Newton-Small details 13 of the most contentious cuts the GOP wants to make, re-interpreted below as a simplified budgeting schema.
GOP FY2016 "Screw That!" Budget
1) Screw the sick/uninsured: let's cut Obamacare funding.
2) Screw the environment: climate change is a hoax. The EPA's nothing more than a government-funded welfare program anyway.
3) Screw cybersecurity: forget those government security breeches, upgrades can wait. That ol' grid's been outdated for decades anyway.
4) Screw education: Head Start, community learning centers, Pell Grants—who needs 'em? It's like a puppy mill for Democrats.
5) Screw the Labor Department: 'nuff said.
6) Screw vets: who cares about the VA? So old school.
7) Screw consumer protection: remember those Wall Street bailouts? Now that was livin'!
8) Screw family planning: Birth control? Teen pregnancy prevention? Just interferes with God's plan.
9) Screw infrastructure: so the occasional bridge collapses. Meh. Anyway, potholes are totally a free public safety program—keeps drivers awake.
10) Screw job training: workers—who needs 'em? If we can get that unemployment rate back up, we'll have plenty anyway.
11) Screw public safety: Wildfires, disease prevention—who cares? Maybe that drought will finally burn California to a crisp and we can take this country back!
12) Screw national parks: nature sucks.
13) Screw public health: If kids wanna eat some lead paint, let 'em. Never hurt us none.
