And the bill you proposed slashed how much?
Thousands of fiscally responsible wonks at think tanks, universities and private industry have outlined the steps to slash a trillion dollars from the yearly Federal budget.
Not a single elected Republican in the House has stepped up to propose a bill to reduce the real yearly budget by more than $50 billion.
This guy is starting out from a position of asking for only 1/20th of what is already available to slash... and all the legwork on the numbers has already been done... such a weak sister starting out with such a poor negotiating strategy will never get the budget under control.
i would cut every agency’s budget by 5% and continue to do so every year.
and your plan?
