Are you trying to say that you don't think there are $370bn/year in legit spending cuts possible from our present budget? That's about 10% of the budget.



republicans spent more each year than they did the year before when they controlled everything. You are either making a specious argument or are a complete retard. You can choose.

No, you just can't see past the partisanship and stupidity of the statements made in the article.

Libs are bitching for more taxes when they (AND EVERY OTHER AMERICAN) should be bitching for LESS government spending.

It's laughably transparent the vindictiveness of some of you when it comes to these topics.

There is almost as much money in the budget for "discretionary" spending as there is for defense spending and defense spending is beyond absurdly ridiculously high.

Tell the truth, do you really think that if the government has more tax dollars from "the rich" that they will put some more money into your pockets or do you think that the government will simply find more pork to spend it on?

Don't be willfully ignorant about this GC because you think you're making a point by doing so. The only point you're making is that you're a jackass.

It's fking god damn pathetic and ridiculous to be screaming for less spending and also object to taking in more money.

Of course BOTH are required.

The only idiots calling for only one of them....are "conservatives".

Point fingers and act smug all you want, it's your god damn stupidity that is causing this mess.

Walk me through it. You've got money in the treasury. Then you cut taxes.

How does that result in there being less money in the treasury without spending?
