RE: but never cut ONE DAMN PENNY FROM ANY BUDGET!
This man had a plan for that — it’s called the PENNY PLAN. Unfortunately Connie Mack lost the elections in Florida last 2012.
But see here:

Essentially the plan is to Cut Federal Spending By One Percent for Six Consecutive Fiscal Years.
It Would Cap Overall Spending at 18 Percent of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) Starting in Fiscal Year 2018.
It Would Reduce Overall Federal Spending by $7.5 trillion over the Next Ten Years and Would Balance the Federal Budget by 2019.
The fact that Florida voted for Bill Nelson over Connie Mack just shows where the state’s voters priorities are....
I’ve heard of it. Seems a little slow for my taste but it’s better than what we get now.
