I think you started a very useful thread. I also think it should be kept alive or another Going Galt type thread needs to be started, where folks can add their cuts, their savings/advantages and ideas.
Most folks are going to need to make cuts, they might as well get ahead of the game.
Free Republic needs the ability to ‘sticky’ a thread...reading these posts is actually make me feel better...time to sh*tcan Rush, Beck, O’Reilly, all the rest. We can starve the beast ourselves...don’t spend one damn dime that you don’t have to...sorry, kids...no stuffing for the turkey this year...Obama voters stole it!
