Now at least that is a start to real cost cutting along with Debt and Deficit reduction.

Only a fool would believe that.

The only budget cuts that are valid are those contained in any current year budget.

To repeat, the only budget cuts that are valid are those contained in any current year budget.

One of the keys to lessening the power of the arrogant elitists in DC is the repeal of the 17th Amendment.

Agreed. I thought perhaps Coburn might start a real debate and not the crap continually going on.
I have been preparing myself for the worst. I am a baby boomer and I am not planning on Social Security or Medicare to be there in any form.
You are right the 17th Amendment was terrible. The States themselves gave up that which they had to keep things in check. Wonder what the how and why of that being passed was.
