re: Would you vote for a candidate who ran on a “major cutbacks to lower deficit” platform?

quote:

---

A candidate who promised to:
Make significant cuts to military spending.
Reel in Social Secirity spending.
Stop the practice of using tax returns as a handout.
Tax reform - flat tax or some variant - that closes all loopholes.
A likely necessary across-the-board tax increase.
Gov aid only to those unable to work.
No more private industry incentives.

Even if a President got elected on that platform, most of that could never get thru Congress. We are in a debt spiral with no escape
