What behind closed doors?????? Something totally different! Amen, Sen. Wicker. Balanced budget is necessary. 800 days without a budget? And they blame the GOP? Seems to me I recall Mr O. denying and ignoring his own budget commission...anybody else remember that?

I agree companies don't need free money from the government. I agree that the government needs to take them away. The companies will not perish. Ethanol should be done away with. We shouldn't be growing corn to burn it when people are starving not to mention that ethanol destroys the inside of our car engines. No one tells you about that! Other bio fuels should be developed but oil and coal will always be necessary.

Schumer, You say you are working on something but one trillion dollars is nothing when you want to raise the debt ceiling by 2.7 trillion. Your "possible" budget reduction of 2 trillion is over 10 years and your original spending has  gone so far beyond that 2 trillion dollars that budget is notreduced but rather still increases! WE NEED JOB CREATION, Government can't create jobs, let the private businesses expand and new ones start-up. Stay out of the px, fix the tax code bye-bye loopholes!
