You are wrong.
First, those are all “discretionary” dollars.
And second, most of them we would be better off with out.

What is on your list?

And everything I mentioned is "discretionary" spending. And it all goes in your scenario.

What is on your list?

I don't have one because I'm smart enough to realize that you can't balance the budget by attacking discretionary spending alone. You have to cut non-discretionary spending and there isn't a single person in Congress with the nerve to do that. If there was then there wouldn't be a need for a balanced budget amendment. Congress would just balance it.
