Obama Admin. Projects 9 trillion dollar deficit increase over the next 10 years.
How do you think we should pay for all this?

Cut the defense budget drastically.

Legalize drugs.

Raise taxes on the rich to Pre-Reagan levels.

Bring in a single-payer healthcare system that'll save us hundreds of billions every year.

Not much panicing going on like when bush was in office.

Did they think you got paradise for free? :rolleyes:

Its all of their bullsh*t that cost money and their " feel good " answers are only going to drive us into a far worse econmic crisis.

Wonder who they're going to blame for putting us into a Depression?

Establish a fair tax
Cut Medicare and Medicaid to the bone
Repeal the prescription drug program
Deregulate the FDA and allow competition in drug companies
Stop cap and trade
Eliminate false green based legislation (global warming-cooling-lukewarming or whatever the flavor of the left is today) Arrest Markey and Waxman for blatant stupidity and moonbatiness in legislation proposals
Open up REAL solutions to energy problems instead of making it a political football
Cut taxes on productive citizens (the rich) to promote investment and growth
Tax citizen leeches (career and generational welfare recipients) If on Welfare for more than 3 years, you get taxed at 100% recuperation of tax-payer losses over a 10 year period. Show cause beyond 3 years to protect the truly needy from the lazy SOB's sucking off the honest taxpayer's titties.
