Where would you cut the budget?
1- Libraries -- close them all. Currently a shelter for the homeless.
2- Parks -- same as above. 3- War on Drugs -- make it legal. Save on prisons as well. 4- Allow Euthanasia. Most humane way to save money. 5- Cut 30% of check to seniors who drive a car. That's a luxury. Promote bikes and trikes. 6- Cut 30% of salaries to every bureaucrat out there. Politicians can afford 50% when they do a bad job. 7- Cut 30% of military expenditure. Let the private industry --Big Oil-- pay for it. 8- Bring doctors from Cuba. They are way cheaper. But I'm sure you have some brilliant ideas of your own. My wisdom is not infinite. ------------------------------------------------------------- http://webspawner.com/users/BANANAREVOLUTION |

Turn it back over to the states. Cut Congressional Salaries by half. Change their Health Care to Medicare. Cut Administrations Salaries by half. Cap salaries of Staff to the average American Wage. We're not granting "rich and famous" contracts to clerks, cooks, pages, and everyone tagging along an elected Politician's coat tails. Air Force One should be downsized to an adequate corporate jet. Again getting elected is not a "rich and famous" contract. Politicians are supposed to go to Washington to serve America. Not herd it nor change it. If you go to Washington you will immediately notice that every thing is overpriced because of the flood of our tax dollars to Government and Elected Officials, and huge contributions of the Corporate world. This is preposterous. Again going to Washington is not a "rich and famous" contract. They have made it that way though. We the People had no such intentions, nor voted for, nor approve of it. When America is in such an economic depression Washington is flooded with our money. Washington, Adams---Lincoln--on through Eisenhower did not have "rich and famous" contracts. Those seeking to turn us into serfs of the Supply Side State or change America granted themselves "rich and famous" contracts. Turn all elections into publicly funded only. No more one dollar one vote by the Corporate World. It will save us billions of dollars, in the long run and restore our will, as government. Stop subsides to huge Agri Business, Foreign or Global Oil, etc. Quit bowing and genefluxing to our enemy around the world and cut off the spigots of money to them. If they want our money they listen to us and are friendly. Wall Street gives China plenty. China doesn't need our tax money. Put Americans back to work on the American space program not sending money to code pink and other groups to buy more malt liquor. Stop the insane and hugely costly Obama Care. If we are goingto have national health care. Use Medicare as the framework. Anyone that passes or votes for fining and jailing Americans that don't enter the commerce stream loses is out the door. that violates the Constitution. All those Foreign/Global Corporations doing business will be required to pay US taxes just like American Citizens and Main Street. That will put them on the level playing field with American Companies and make American Companies competitive, in America. Stop making rules and laws for the Global Economy. Success of America's Economy and Business is supposed to be Washington's purpose. We are not a subject state of the UN or Wall Street. Get the h out of the UN.we don;t change our Laws to conform to the UN. Close the border with Mexico and sned home all Illegals befroe California becomes Mexico. It is almost accomplished yet Washington is stupid or blind enough not to see it. This will save America trillions, of dollars and restore hundreds of thousands of US jobs. Mexico is not friendly nor a 51st State nor do we face Mexico City and pledge allegiance. |

In other words, "they" will be the same as the rest of "us." Not they act like the masters, even at the local level. Every immigrant that comes into America must learn the language or get the hell out. Don't let people who don't have a clue about the American system or the language cast a vote. The elections in 2000 were decided in Dade-County by a bunch of old Cubans who are now buried deep under the ground. In other words, they voted Republican and left the couch potato for us. |

Never mind. Open every project out there --road construction, bridge building-- to criticism and scrutiny. Don't let them dump the money in projects that means juicy contracts but have questionable benefits. |

Sorry, but that won't work unless driving tests are designed in ways which cleanse the roads of lousy drivers. This should be easy, since at least 90% of drivers have no business being behind the wheel. Until the tests are fixed, it will never be wise or safe to ride a bicycle on public roads. |

I'm all for it. That "license to kill" is questionable, to say the least. The problem is nobody messes with the seniors because they tend to vote. I have to think of a solution. How about taking the right to vote away from them? |

Oh no trust me, I'm anything but a Republican and THERE'S A LOT OF WASTE. Some inherited from Republican administrations. I think THEY ARE SORT OF TRADITIONS. Nobody can answer me why we have a war on drugs, for example. The war in Iraq and Afghanistan were totally unnecessary to begin with. |

It's about money: CHEAP LABOR. Let the bosses pay HEFTY FINES for hiring illegal labor. THE LEFT IS WRONG IN DEFENDING A POSITION THAT BENEFITS THE RIGHT. We must also support a revolution in Mexico. Let them legalize marijuana and all. Drop Mexican politicos as we dropped Mubarak. |
