Cut taxes.

reduce regulation.

reduce spending.

let the housing market crash.

deport all illegals.

no more bailouts.

in fact, take back the bailout money that was already handed out. I mean all of it. Let the banks go out of business. Let the auto factories go out of business.

Eliminate MINIMUM half of all government.

In the short term, there will be increased unemployment, foodstamps, and such payments made. But in the long run, the economy will be better off.

Two choices actually:

Cut taxes, cut government, and some of us go poor.

Or wait until ALL of us go poor.

And don’t think the millionaires in our gov’t will get away then - they’ll end up worst than anything done to KSM.

Pretty stupid polls - how about cutting Govt and neither of the options offered. I ignored such a stupid poll - this is why some polls have “no opinion” - it is not that I don’t have an opinion but the choices given are stupid.

I would have chosen cut spending, but it wasn't offered as an option. Must be a Democrat inspired poll.

If increased tax revenue is the object, reduction of tax rates is the answer. Spending must be reduced as well. The government is collecting too much tax now. That is killing business and reducing tax revenue. We don't need higher taxes. Cut the spending and the tax collections can be directed toward reducing the debt.

huh?

A lot of what you have to say makes not bad sense... but the bottom line o their poll boiled down to a lacking in the relationship between debt, its interest and how its going to be paid down.... which is ultimately taxes. With what obama is doing is he is enslaving us, draining the capital and enslaving future generations. The amount of debt in my opinion is enough to bankrupt the country.

It was once written that one of the quickest and surest ways into communism and collectivism was through bankrupting the country and or the debasing of the currency which is exactly what the great destroyer Sheik Ibn HUssein osammaObamma is up to.

ANYWHO.... it was a very poorly constructed poll question.
