Righties and Lefties: Where would you cut or tax to align spending with revenues

Total Revenue: 3.3 Trillion.
Total expenditure: 4.1 Trillion.
To cut: 800 Billion.

Feel free to go as in-depth as you want, with reasons and explanations. Try to make it as politically palatable as possible from your standpoint. You can even add revenues and expenditures for a program you think should be added. For instance, medicare for all. Just provide your political alignment.

I'll go first:
Me: Far Right Wing.

Cuts:

Defense by $323 Billion, down to $300 Billion from $623 Billion.

Reason:
I don't trust congress and any president not to use a huge military
more money does not mean better forces, it just means more expensive ones
We can re-arm with plenty of time if another World War, because geography
this would still put our military spending ahead of China's.

DoEd and associated grants to 48 billion and 99 billion, reducing from 68 billion and 129 billion respectively (total of 50 billion saved)

Reason:
It's important to help families and kids go to college, but we don't have the money.
Overfunding of these programs is causing college to become bloated with cost
College is not the right path for a large minority of the people who go there.

Social security by $100 Billion, down to 882 Billion. This is done by simply pegging the retirement age to the average life expectancy, allowing it to rise as people get older on average.

Reason:
It's the largest outlay in the budget.

15% reduction in spending for all other discretionary spending, going from 442 billion to 375 Billion. (reducing by 66 Billion)

Reason:
Its an across the board cut back to spending from only a few years ago.

539 B down, 261 to go.


Medicare & medicaid cut by 10% total. That's a reduction of 97 Billion, down from 971 Billion to 874 Billion.

Reason:
Spending here is bloated enough, and we have to start negotiating price with the medical industry.

Now Revenues:
2% increase in income taxes across the board. That's a revenue increase of 34 Billion.

Pin Payroll taxes to the expediture in SS and Medicare, so that as expenditure goes up or down, it matches exactly. This increases it from 1.2 trillion to 1.756 trillion, an increase of 556 billion.

Reason: if we are going to have these programs, we have to pay for them.


This leaves us with a net surplus of 426 billion to go to paying down the debt. If we started next year, we could have it paid down in 53 years, or by 2073.
