Republicans have always stood for smaller government in economic affairs, and they will do whatever it takes to get there. If it proves too difficult to achieve this through a frontal assault on entitlement and discretionary programs, they will simply focus on cutting taxes ad infinitum and getting rid of federal regulations while allowing spending in the interim to continue. They will let the federal budget deficit and debt soar to unsustainable levels until the dam inevitably breaks, by which point they can then ruthlessly focus on gutting the federal government of any function they feel is not explicitly sanctioned by the Constitution (constitutionally-sanctioned functions include national security, which also encompasses homeland security), all the while depriving Democrats of the ability to begin new initiatives through lack of money.
Correct!
