That’s only $400 billion per year. You need to cut $1.5 trillion per year.

I've read the posting through # 38, and for the most part, the FReepers that are ranting about, this not being enough of a cut, or one that wants to cut $ 4 trillion this year, do not acknowledge how the feds are currently constructed.

If the USA adopts the budget that Ryan proposes on Tuesday, as is, he should be made KING FOR LIFE, and all his children should be made princes and princesses.

Wait until it is released and watch how the demonRATS go berserk and you will start to appreciate how good Ryan's budget proposal really is.

Fire Ryan? NO, CROWN KING RYAN.

The trouble with saying you’ll save 4 Trillion over the next decade is you can’t be sure what the next congress (House) two years from now will do. If you can’t make permanent cuts THIS YEAR, you’re just guessing at how much you will save (aka lying)

This is a step in the right direction. The Democrats will propose phony cuts and things will just get worse, rather than better.

The Republicans need to get control of the Senate as well as the White House.

Otherwise, just shut down the government...

If we don’t cut spending and I mean now, there’s not going to be anything left.

Funny that the complete obvious is radical and extreme.

This Congress can’t pass the budget for the Congress ten years from now. This Congress should focus on cuts that can be made this year or next. This Congress should be measured by the cuts it makes to current spending.

Reminds me of the GOP push to pass a Balanced Budget Amendment to the Constitution in the 1980’s-1990’s.

Still waiting on that. And we’ll be waiting on this as well. The solution? Forced austerity. See tagline....

What good are empty promises when all we really need is REAL CUTS, NOW?

This long-term “planning,” of which everyone knows it is just hot air, is really starting to -iss me off.

Well lets see...

The budget is short more than a trillion dollars a year for as far as the eye can see and they want to cut $400 billion a year.

Gee, that’s only short at least $600 billion a year of a balanced budget...

That’l fix things...

I would urge us to ct a trillion a year— not 4 trillion for 10 years although it is at least a start.
