I doubt that there would be much clapping going on
if government spending were reduced by 17% in one year.

There might be if the populous could be made to see the damage
that deficit spending is doing to the "Children and GrandChildren"

Try cutting out 17% in one year from this budget. Our revenue barely covers the entitlment programs, other so- called mandatory spending like unemployment benefits and food stamps, and debt servicing costs. And remember that 10,000 people a day are retiring and will continue to do so for the next 20 years. By 2030, one out of every five residents will be 65 or older, twice what it is now.
