>> "The bulk of the black ink budget and red ink borrowing is completely on autopilot. so what do you propose that *he* propose to cut?Bureaucracy, Dem patronage jobs to include do-nothing foundations, think tanks, NGOs subsisting on fat government contracts, plum patronage projects to Unions, grants for all kinds of "-studies" majors and colossal white-elephand science projects, The Dept. of Education, The Dept. of Energy, much foreign aid (*keep giving* the aid to Israel), anti-"bullying" efforts, ...and ALL pensions for Congress and the Senate. Serving in the Legislature, like welfare, was never meant to be a career choice.
Oh, and drastically cut the EPA: and require Congress to write and vote on regulations that implement the laws, themselves, rather than delegating the task to unelected, anonymous, unaccountable, career bureaucrats."
I'm so with you on all of that and more ( shutter the EPA, EDU and BATF and consolidate all the other alphabet agencies and cut the manpower by 50% ).
But all I meant in that post you replied to is that NONE of this will matter a wit if the Amnesty cannot be blocked, and a moratorium on naturalizations put in effect, with quotas against Mexico/Central/South America/Asia and in favor of perhaps western and eastern Europe. At least for a while. The Mexican bias needs to be undone.
Or else it makes no difference because they will be back with bulletproof super-majorities in 10 and 20 years. Then whatever haircuts we gave FedGov will not matter. FedGov will become "Cousin It" !
