If rich limbs want this stuff, they can pay for it.
I would love seeing PBS cut off.
Praise God!
Thank you, President Trump.
I’d love to see NPR, PBS and the whole damn lot of LEFT-wing media cut from our (taxpayers’) funding!
Does this include NPR?
..won’t put a real dent in our growing debt.
A dent here, a dent there, pretty soon you're talkin' real money.
More importantly, it'd chop off a couple heads of our internal communist hydra.
Bingo!!!!!
Well, then, I guess we really can’t start doing anything to reduce the budget unless we first wait until Congress passes cuts to SS.
Let’s just party until that happens, as Mr. Sexton would seem to state.
NPR is just a laundry for the DNC so why should we pay for it?
FU BIG BIRD
What I really don't like is when they spend nearly 3 weeks working their Beg-a-thon and I miss the shows I like - This Old House, Nova and Nature.
Left wing propaganda arm. Nothing but an army of Leni Riefenstahls.
NPR would undoubtedly continue under private leftist funding, but DON'T LET THEM KEEP THE NAME. The government owns that name. There will be nothing "national" or "public" about a privately owned propaganda outlet.
Zero out all this crap (welfare for the left).
...and hear the lamentations of their pajama boys. (suddenly unemployed, and thrust into the real world)
Taxpayers shouldn’t be forced to subsidize Leftwing bias and opinion. Either mandate balanced representation, or limit the content to classical music which I’d prefer 24/7.
Ideally, funding NPR should be an option on tax returns.
They need to quit calling social security an entitlement as though it is welfare. It isn’t. And if they ran it like they were supposed to it wouldn’t be part of the budget. It is paid for as a separate item by employees and employers. It should not be part of the debt, deficit or budget.
What it is, as they run it now, is a giant ponzi scheme.
Force them to shut down and liquidate - not just drive on with Soros subsidy.
Let’s see which Dem tries to put them back into the budget and how hard they’ll fight (or what they’ll concede) to keep them. I’m thinking that’s not the hill they want to die on but they haven’t been very rational lately.
Libs flip out in 3, 2, 1....
Defund the Left!
Put them all out on the streets at once - Soros can’t hire them all. They will have to get (shudder) REAL JOBS!
When you cut these Government Agencies, it not just the salaries and their mischief that you save, some of them pass through ten times more money than they spend to operate their Agencies, in grants to leftists outside of Government.
Many more leftists forced to find real jobs!
Virtuous ripples will extend throughout society...
Yup.
We can’t touch popular entitlement programs.
The list of programs targeted for elimination can be done better by the private sector.
What has to be asked: does a program serve a lot of people? If it doesn’t, it shouldn’t be funded.
The deficit can be addressed with a scalpel, not with an ax.
