But definitely FCC. The FCC has to be at the TOP of the cut list. Even before Departments of Energy and Education.
Congress’s $860,000 tab on bottled water targeted as wasteful spending

“If they are appeasing the TEA party, a one time cut isn’t going to make us happy. The only way to survive as a nation is to cut spending way below tax revenues to allow us to retire debt.
Lat year we overspent by 1.5 trillion dollars. Can you DC people do the math?”
Asking a politician to cut domestic spending is a bit like asking them to cut off their own political arm. Its hard because most all of that domestic spending ends up buying votes for them and thus indirectly their own reelection.
I’m sure they can do math, but the last and only time this federation retried its debt was in the 1830’s and it was by selling off land acquisitions. Even then it only lasted for a short time.
We should begin to accept the probability that congress is structurally incapable of maintaining a balanced budget.
