Same old smoke and mirrors.  "We won't overspend any more than we already overspend".

Abolish the federal reserve, don't forget who is behind the debt, a paper ponzi scheme.

@kingediii Well said!!! How bout they give their own money to all those freeloaders and keep their hands out of my pockets. My Mother taught me that was stealing. In this country we all have every opportunity to succeed, but it takes work, that's the rub. And by "work" I don't mean walking to the mail box to collect your "gubment check". If you want more money get off your lazy as s and get a job, open a business, invent something, improve something, improve your job skills, etc, etc.

@henleythecat @henleythecat simple answers? seems pretty simple to me - stop spending so bloody much money or that big number is going to keep going up and we're screwed. The simple minded are those who think that fact is going to disappear by ignoring it.

Protests, riots, violence, etc. are spreading. There are wars and rumors of wars. Politicians, the economy, big or small government are not the answer. The return of the Lord Jesus Christ is fast approaching. Prepare yourselves and repent. Seek the Lord while He may be found, call upon His name while He is near.

@henleythecat How long did it take you to come up with that? I am sure you are a genius. Here is a simple concept. Within a few years, 100% of all US money will go to paying for the interest alone.

The Republican Party.... Simple answers for the simple minded.

TRADE when you take from defense you make us defensless. We make better products and stop the bull and we will make money. Asia is growing that is where you can make money.

@Magz405 A freeze is a cut...

But I agree we need to cut more especially from defense/military.

[dgallegos4201]

If 800$ billion in "stimulus" (slush fund) didn't get us anything, what are we going to lose with 100$ billion in cuts? Nobody can defend this obama on the issues and merit.

So many lazy free loaders in these comments. If you feel like a loser in life, chances are it's your own fault, not some rich guy. Stop trying to get the government to steal from those that work hard to get ahead.

62% of the US budget is defense. Homeland security was the biggest expansion of the US government in a long time. Want small government? Want to spend less? Really?
