It’s all for show and designed to B S the public. Whatever he comes up with will not affect the disastrous course he and the Democrats have set for the country.

– Revert to the original 4 cabinet agencies. The rest get eliminated.
– All troops come home. The Pentagon budget gets reduced by 75%.
– Auction off all federally owned land and buildings to the highest bidder.
– Slash pensions and benefits for the entire public sector. A parasite shouldn’t be bigger than the host.
– Repeal all legal tender laws.
– Eliminate all capital gains taxes.
– Make those receiving welfare of any kind ineligible to vote in the next election.
– Eliminate witholding.
– Repeal the 16th and 17th Amendments.

Whatever we do, the country is going to be in for a world of hurt very soon. Get ready.

Which is why calls for tax cuts are currently moronic. We need spending cuts and need them badly – phase out the Department of Education, Housing and Urban Development, Agribusiness subsidies – bring most of the 250,000 troops home – and we would still have a defecit of over $ 5000 per taxpayer just for this year. Bush and Obama so messed up the nation’s finances, it is hard to explain just how desparate the situation is. We are heading to a dollar bubble which will make the housing bubble look like a Sunday School picnic.
