2) Explode deficits
3) Use the debt as an excuse to demand cuts to vital programs that help millions.

Just saw and heard a significant protest march in Long Beach, CA. We are working and cannot join at the moment, but I am in deep support of all non-violent protests against the cynical, cruel ICE raids in this state.
