If I wanted to be descriptive, I could write you five paragraphs on the subject and all that jazz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ub3rman123 Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 End the pork system. Stop rewarding politicians for spending money on pointless things because it's their home state. Don't pay out to projects based on who's going to vote for you next round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeyYou Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 End four wars. Stop sending money to countries that hate us. Stop sending money to countries that merely tolerate us, and don't even need it. Stop spending money to rebuild things that we blew up earlier, because of the "war on terror". Wanna hide terrorists? Fine, we will expend the ordinance to blow up their bases of operation, and then we WON'T come in and spend billions rebuilding your country. Stop giving tax breaks to folks from a specific region, when the immigrate here. It stinks of racial bias, and defeats the purpose of competition. Handing out advantages to new immigrants, gives them better opportunities than the folks that were born here. End Tax breaks for "creating jobs in developing nations." Which translates literally to "MOVING jobs TO developing nations." Do away with a fair few corporate subsidies. End corporate welfare. Have a long hard look at the various projects, both military, and civilian, that are going on. If they are way over budget, and look like they are going to continue to be. Shut 'em down. ESPECIALLY those that aren't going to deliver what was promised in the first place. End lifetime benefits for folks that serve in washington DC. Model it according to private industry. If you work there for 30 years, THEN you get some good retirement. Not after merely four years, and get a package that is better than anything the private industry offers, even after 50 years..... That should do for a start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pyrosocial Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 Instead of cuts why don't we charge higher taxes for big corperations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marharth Posted June 26, 2011 Author Share Posted June 26, 2011 Instead of cuts why don't we charge higher taxes for big corperations?Yea, you need to do cuts as well though. Taxing them more won't do much until you close the loopholes anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kendo 2 Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 Instead of cuts why don't we charge higher taxes for big corperations? Because no amount of taxing or taxes will affect the soaring US debt or stop runaway spending. The Feds could take George Soros' entire stock portfolio (est $6420 million) and it would cover about an hour of US spending. Taxing won't address the spending or even make a dent.
