Even though it was all or nothing, was still pretty easy to get it down to 184B, just a tad over revenue.

The biggest laugh is the amount that goto bureaucrat salaries... we have approx 1.5m active duty men under arms, yet their salaries are a fraction of the rest of the Fed Govt salaries.

Go figure.

That's because the average salary of a bureaucrat sitting on their ass in Washington, or around the country, in an air conditioned office is over $70,000 while the average salary of a man or woman risking their life for each of us is about $20,000. Juxtapose those numbers and we'd solve a bunch of problems.

I was able to get the expenditure down to $139B without batting an eye or cutting into military salaries, IRS refunds (which is NOT an expense, its money they should never have had) or social security. Never mind the fact that this is a very elementary exercise since we're only allowed to completely cut things rather than cut parts of them.

You don't want me to be President.

First, I would enact Martial Law, and suspend the Congress and House. Then in the next 90 days I would completely ratify and nuke every bullshit loophole porkbelly law out there and the tax codes for private and public, then finally I would embargo China and we would trade Food for debt reduction and place a fair and equitable tariff on all imports.

Then I would attack the Banks and Wall Street and remove the shell game going on in World Banking and the speculation that drives common commodities.

After that, I would address the regulation of multi-media to break the Oligopoly present and force competition in the market place and then Nationalize the backbone infrastructure to include the Power Grind, Water Services, Rail Services, Air Traffic Control, and Digital Communication.

Then I would address funding of campaigns to include a complete and total redo of the system. The Federal Government would now provide campaign funding at an equal level to include access to air time and force Candidates into actual "truth in campaign" reforms to include stiff prison sentences for those that break the code and requirements of Constitution for which they swear to uphold.

I would then decentralize our military presence all over the world and force the rest of the world and the UN to police itself in there own matters. I would counter this with a massive spending campaign on over the horizon force projection (See US Naval Fleets) which would allow for a Military presence w/o the massive redundant cost structure of the current 5 Branches of the Service we have now.

Then we would get to the real good part, a two class system. Citizen or Civilian, the decision is yours. Basic human rights and services provided to all, with advanced rights and services to those Civilians who choose to serve the Republic and EARN the right to be called a Citizen of the USA.

Finally, I would abolish the ridiculous drug laws on the books and legalize, regulate, and tax the production of Hemp and Marijuana, to include the release of all inmates serving time for only Marijuana related crimes.

weed...i knew it would be in there somewhere.

Welcome to the National Socialist Republic of Tasorinland, NAZIT for short.

Dont need to cut out whole items just tank 25% off the top of everything but the military and take 10% of the savings and put that to military wage increases.

More wars is clearly the American answer. Not just mamby pamby counter terrorism wars, I mean full on nation taking over race slaying conquestathon.

beautiful word Donk.....Conquestathon....I love it.

Why do you numbskulls think making marijuana legal and taxing it is going to fix everything? Seriously, making it legal would just open up everyone growing their own. You would have a vegetable garden and a weed garden. People would buy it and pay the tax. But many more would grow their own. Especially if was anything near expensive. I don't care if it's legal or not, I just find it hilarious that it's part of a solution that would actually make things a lot better. Sorry but it won't.
