If you aren’t eliminating whole departments of government, you aren’t serious.

What’s Trump’s position on SS and Medicare?
He should slice medicaid.
Actual discretionary spending is a small part of our budget.
If SS and Medicare remain the same, there will be no balanced budget, i’m afraid
I could be VERY wrong.

Have you ever wondered why approx. 500 of the advertised “best and brightest” Can’t scrape up enough intelligence to balance a budget?
To: Tolerance Sucks Rocks
The RINO’s in congress will never cut spending. They love big govt as much as the Dems.

Honestly, I look at past times of heroism — like “the greatest generation” and I marvel at what people sacrificed. Young men with their whole lives ahead of them, and they gave it all so that others could have a bright future.
SS and Medicare? It may be a that a generation has to lose all of that. We can’t afford it. Be a hero. Say goodbye to government payments. Yes, it’s a sacrifice. But better people have sacrificed more.

Does not! It takes one second for the A/P manager to walk over and click ‘hold’ or ‘cancel’ the payee. When that payee gets the drift, he quits providing goods or services.

Right now we need a Serial Program Killer, an axe wielding maniac of budget restraint, a man who prefers governance to constitutional means over the welfare of individuals.

It Will Take An Ax, Not A Scalpel, To Control Federal Spending. It just takes the will to control it. And nobody in Washington has that.

Forget the scalpel and the ax.
Break out the guillotine.
Just a thought :-)

From the article:
Republicans must consider adopting a reform plan like that proposed by Rep. Sam Johnson, R-Texas, in the 114th Congress. Rep. Johnson's plan reworks how Social Security benefits are distributed and increases the age at which workers can collect benefits to 69.
Sounds good. Who helped Rep Johnson write this proposal? Which organizations had input?

Some grocery store gossip rag had Trump on the cover with
“TAXES CHAINSAW MASSACRE” in huge letters.
I thought that was pretty funny.

Massacre, huh? Sigh. Unless baseline budgeting has been repealed, we’re really looking at a paper cut.

Good idea. Start sending chainsaws to the White Tower.
