Go ahead and cut military and VA and have nobody serve and have your kids get drafted. Again there are major consequences once you start cutting military, VA, social security, Medicare etc. I’m not surprised soys who never served wanting to cut things that don’t affect them at a time where we need the strongest military.

Sadly the problem is that regardless of who puts forth any bill these days there are 2' of positives followed by 100' of Pork Filled Negative Crap. The problem is that its impossible to get even 1" of the 2' of positives without the other 100' of Pork Filled Crap!

Our leaders will get fired for doing what should be done.
And Trump is just like every other politician. Buying votes and adoration with our own money.

Ronbots knighting for Kevin.

But I was told, rather firmly, that Trump isn’t a politician but instead and outsider sent to drain the swamp.

Never seen you guys so worried until it involved Trump. None of this concern and cutting any other time.

Stop. You’ve already been told by someone smarter than you that heard it somewhere.
IT CANT BE CUT!!!!!

ut, I'm guessing there is some pork/military boondoggle aspects in there

What bill do you propose they pass that will do everything you want and get 60 votes in the Senate?
As many small bills as it takes instead of one massive omnibus bill. frick Trump and most of the republicans ran promising to stop passing massive omnibus bills but here we are a massive garbage omnibus bill thats not likely to pass in the senate now

quote:This is silly. All the money for those social programs comes from our economy (either now or in the future when the debt comes due). You only accounted for one side of the deal (just like democrats do!). I can make ANYTHING look awesome if we only account for hte spending side of it. Why not spend $100T? Think of how big our economy could be, if we'd only spend enough!
