Bush Budget Plan a Headache for Congress
I’m in favor of cutting many of the government’s pet subsidization programs. However I’m for budget cutting the other pet programs too (The Pentagon, Homeland Security, etc…).
I’ve got a really original idea, instead of more social engineering via the tax cuts, what if the Federal Government stopped thinking up new and exciting ways to spend our money? Then maybe taxes could be lowered because they just didn’t need the money.
Which brings me to an interesting point. We need a conservative party. The Republican party has strayed so far from being a conservative party that the two can barely be mentioned in the same sentence. For the past nearly 20 years the closest we have been to a conservative president was Clinton (who was so by virtue of being a moderate, not because he was a Democrat).
