	Bjorvald posted: Why were we borrowing money from SS when it was more expensive than the open market? And it's hard to make the case that interest rates were not affected by keeping trillions of borrowing out of the market. With that reasoning we are also keeping trillions worth out of the market. -----signature----- "Okay...

	I would cut as many programs as possible. I would also close unneeded bases that are only there because of political pull. Nothing would be "too important" to escape my knife. What was left would be reformed so they work and the dead wood chopped. I would do my best to prevent future "empire building". Perhaps a rule that if your program grows more than some percentage that the leader is given a slightly lower job. Anyone who is not seeking work, I mean really looking, will get cut off. All programs that force a state or person to do something would be cut. Inspectors will be restricted as to what they can fine for. They can advise and re-inspect but only repeated violations would get a fine. No more, "do this or you will have a nitpick inspection on your hands". No more, "our board is not the right size, give us money. This broken jack in your repair pile was not labeled correctly, give us money." The inspector's job will be to help, not scare. No one should be scared of the government. I want a government that is welcome, not feared. -----signature----- There are three kind of liberals; Stupid, ignorant or evil The result is always evil but the intent is not always evil.

	Massive cuts to defense, raise taxes by removing most all the loopholes corporations and rich people use, try to find areas to cut out of social programs. Everyone must do with less -----signature----- I keep my eyes fixed on the sun! A change in feeling is a change in destiny.
