Minority Business Development Agency is toast and that's just the beginning.

Trump team prepares dramatic cuts

The departments of Commerce and Energy would see major reductions in funding, with programs under their jurisdiction either being eliminated or transferred to other agencies. The departments of Transportation, Justice and State would see significant cuts and program eliminations.

The Corporation for Public Broadcasting would be privatized, while the National Endowment for the Arts and National Endowment for the Humanities would be eliminated entirely.

Conservative House budgets have repeatedly included reforms (alternate way to say "cuts") to Medicare and Social Security, arguing they are necessary to save the programs.

The Heritage blueprint used as a basis for Trump’s proposed cuts calls for eliminating several programs that conservatives label corporate welfare programs: the Minority Business Development Agency, the Economic Development Administration, the International Trade Administration and the Manufacturing Extension Partnership. The total savings from cutting these four programs would amount to nearly $900 million in 2017.

At the Department of Justice, the blueprint calls for eliminating the Office of Community Oriented Policing Services, Violence Against Women Grants and the Legal Services Corporation and for reducing funding for its Civil Rights and its Environment and Natural Resources divisions.

At the Department of Energy, it would roll back funding for nuclear physics and advanced scientific computing research to 2008 levels, eliminate the Office of Electricity, eliminate the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy and scrap the Office of Fossil Energy, which focuses on technologies to reduce carbon dioxide emissions.

OK, there's a huge list of "tear stuff down". Where is the list of "build stuff"? And what about education?

Do Republicans think money will be coming in from all the jobs flooding back. What happens when jobs don't come flooding back?

The fed needs a massive cut. Across the board, but especially on all the offices and redundant global warming hoax programs.

This is why I'm optimistic about the future.

Rturd is going to piss and moan, predict doom and soil another mattress.

After everything is said and done and the economy is booming again, Rturd will parrot shit off democrookunderground about the success of the meat puppet faggot finally being felt.

Or some insipid shit like that.

Zuckerberg and Gates can easily cover the cost.

You have something against the 1% taking care of the poor?

I don't see a single item in those cuts that is a Constitutionally legitimate program. You have to cut, to get spending under control and the finances in order before you spending agsin.

One notes in your screed that the assumption is there HAS to be replacement funding for the reduced spending. Nowhere is even the idea that we simply can't afford to continue pumping gasoline onto the fire, hoping to put it out.

Excellent start! They should cut/eliminate the Department of Education as well.
Maybe in a second term?

At the Department of Energy, it would roll back funding for nuclear physics and advanced scientific computing research to 2008 levels

If we cut transfer payments back to 2008 levels, we'd have had a $600 billion surplus last year.
