Certainly not the legislators who passed the deficit-breaking tax breaks and the giant military bills, they'll all be long gone and sitting on a beach sipping their drinks or whatever. They're the ones causing this whole mess and will be out of the room when it all comes down.

It'll be us to take the consequences, suffer the fates of their actions done, not on our behalf, but the billionaires who received the giant tax breaks.
