Mine involves huge Pentagon cuts (i.e. closing virtually all bases on foreign soil and ending idiotic boondoggles like the Osprey and F-35), along with shutting down and/or devolving, to the states or the marketplace, the responsibilities of entire cabinet-level departments like the Departments of Education, Energy, Commerce, Fatherland Security'/TSA, HUD and a bunch of other agencies that just waste money and duplicate services....Ending stupid crap like the war on (some) drugs, ETOH (and most other ag) subsidies, etcetera.Izzatright?
From everything I've seen you post, you're good with acting in a fiscally responsible way, cutting spending and pork, right up to the point that a concrete proposal is on the table...The those floating the proposal are suddenly "wingnuts".
Really? Is THAT what I've done?
Can you point me to that?
Or better yet, gimme your concrete proposal.
(Mine is - and has been - 5% across the board - no sacred cows. And then we can work from there to see where else we can cut.)
The time for timid measures like 3% and 5% cuts has long since past...This nation is in deep financial trouble and bold action is the only thing that is going to save it.
