During an appearance on CNN's The Arena, Senator John Kennedy humorously addressed the chaos surrounding the House budget negotiations. He pointed out the absurdity of the situation, likening it to Kafka's works, and stressed the importance of not letting perfect solutions hinder practical progress. Kennedy highlighted the urgency of extending tax cuts to prevent a potential $4.3 trillion tax burden on Americans. His light-hearted yet pointed remarks served to remind his colleagues to stay focused on their ultimate objectives amid the budget breakdown.
In 300,000 years of human history, nobody's ever calmed down when they're told to calm down, so I'm not going to tell my House friends to calm down.
If we do not extend the tax cuts, on December 31st of this year, there will be a $4.3 trillion increase on the American people.
You have to remember that when you're dealing with really important issues like the House is dealing with, members of Congress tend to not be like most teenagers.
Don't make the perfect the enemy of the good in trying to resolve the budget dispute.
