If you look at the gap in the chart from the article, simply freezing the spending for two years will completely eliminate the deficit. Any executive who can't accomplish that without even breaking a sweat isn't worth retaining as a potted plant. Are you listening, Mr. President.
The left never gives up, is patient in getting their leftist socialism embedded in our society. Check out the “we're all winners” type of college graduates coming into the working arena with assorted worthless “social change” degrees thinking they will blast into the job market, have everyone love them and throw lots of money at them. When reality check hits them in the face, they realize that being a guy/gal serving coffee at the local Starbucks just isn't what they dreamed of. BWAAAAA... When we sent our two to college (totally paid for by them and us) we told them to find a line of studies where you can make good money. Oh Gee - that works! Both are successful now, working very hard and have no unrealistic expectations.
Don't you all love the reaction of the Dem low-information voter who now looks at his first 2013 paycheck and is shocked, I tell ya, just shocked. Sit back and laugh. The Won has NO use for them any more. bwaaaaa. Gotta love it just a little, don't you?
And of course you are totally correct about the deficit. An intelligent solution for irrational spending.
I have always been so disappointed in the GOP for not grabbing a microphone and merely listing the waste and fraud in our government spending problems, but it apparently will disclose the waste THEY voted for.
Disgusting isn’t it?
The problem is any freeze is defined as a cut. Hell, any reduction in planned increase is considered a cut. Witness Defense spending.
