The Paul Ryan budget IS a far right budget.

Hey moron...that wasn't "Obama's" budget. It was a Republican budget, entered into the Senate by a Republican, with Obama's name on the cover. Man, you guys are lame.

Where's the American far left? You don't even have a centre left.

You have a far right, and a centre right

That's it.

Your real left wingers aren't in a mainstream party, and are likely labeled communists and unpatriotic

Tax cuts for the rich don't stimulate the economy. There are been 2 amnesties on money kept overseas to avoid taxes, and neither time had significant effects on the economy

Boosting govt spending provably works

The golden era of USA has high taxes, regulation and big govt. Fact.

why would they get votes if no one heard of them from the media?

Obama's budget got 0 democratic votes !!! So you could say Obama's crappy budget met with absolute denial by the Democrats.

Rachel is being incredibly misleading to her viewers, plans from the far left or right will not be considered as they wouldn't have the votes to pass them.

[Kent McLaughlin]

Dems had four years with no budget, five if you count the Senate. The foolishness of pretending it's the other sides fault is at an end, the result of what we do is gonna hurt, already has. Tax cuts historically hurt the economy worse than government cuts, tax laws are insane, wars that bring no benefit to our homeland are insane, the system is broken to the point that Bachman is a candidate, Maddow is an "expert" and the two party system will give us more far left and right to choose from.

A budget that makes sense? It will never be on the table nor get much coverage.

Even Obama's crappy budget met with absolute denial by the GOP, a budget that actually make sense would just be ignored.

[Dave Roselle]

this makes too much sense for it to work.

[IncDeathCreed]

republicans just want to send this country back into the stone age.
