re: #79 Pete(Detroit)

Can we start w/ a 10% whack across the board, starting from 2007 levels?
For a freakin START?!?!

Can we at least agree that the gov’t is too effing HUGE?

If not, there is not a place to even start

>sigh

No, we cannot. Cutting Medicare and Social Security by 10% is not something voters would want. Nor would I be willing to cut the funding of the Marines while they are at war, nor the funds of the FBI that protects us from terrorists here at home. I’m sorry, but your proposal is fatally flawed.
