don’t see this as a priority for any one including trump

Rush makes point. If you readjust taxes and still take min the revenue that’s not a tax cut. In order to reduce revenue you have to reduce spending.

I am optimistic employment will rise and that means less people on the public dole. But there are cuts that can be made and i just don’t hear the conversation

Indeed; we ultimately need 50% across-the-board cuts in all gov’t spending just to have a sane hope of eliminating the national debt.

Unfortunately, those making the decisions howl at the notion of even slightly reducing the rate of increase of spending. Have to overcome that before getting to actual reductions.
