Every time I read these stories about waste and subsidies I’m convinced ten average American small business owners could in 24 hours take the detail of the federal budget and produce a balanced budget. Instead we spend a billion dollars for Congress, its staff members, and consultants who do nothing more than keep adding to the debt.
The House Republicans elected in 2010 have not balanced the budget even though they have control of spending per the Constitution. If elected Romney isn’t going to balance the budget, he will “tinker” around the edges. The web woven by special interests is too strong.
At this point in time it appears the only way out this out of control spending mess is for a collapse of the entire system and the US government to lose its ability to borrow. The dictator who takes charge will have no choice but to balance the budget.
You are forgetting that we only have the House, and to get the results we want we need the entire Congress, which is the House and the Senate
April 23, 2009 was the last time that the democRat controlled Senate has passed a budget.
