I think we're on the same wavelength. The budget should be balanced, responsibly (i.e. with spending cuts), and entitlement spending (Medicaid, Social Security) must be brought under control.

Bush needs to veto some spending. Hell, he needs to veto SOMETHING!

Yes! And get serious about sealing the border. Probably wishful thinking.

One thing that will help bring spending under control is to first make the costs of government obvious to taxpayers and make sure everyone pays taxes as well.

THEN we'll see some voter action to curb the runaway (and sometimes hidden) spending that we now have. And there's a tax system that will do this.

It's time for the FairTax!!!

There are huge bundles of information available about it and it is the most thoroughly economically-studied tax plan ever put before congress.

Heres the bill itself, HR25.

And here's the website with extensive economic data - the FairTax website.

There's lots of helpful information there on many, many different topics. Check the FAQs and Rebuttals for example.
