List of Programs Proposed for Cuts in Trunk Budget |
2011-02-16 |
Link to a list of the programs proposed to be terminated by H.R. 1 and save $100 billion this year. Only a few are identified with Climate Change [snicker] and I'll manage to get along without high-speed rail in this country ($5 billion). |

#2 Roll the budget back to 2008: $3.7 trillion -> $2.9 trillion. Let Obama explain why he needs so much more money then in 2008. Particularly, since the recession is "over". |

#1 Actually, Bobby, it's $55B or so. And you know darned well that with all the inefficiencies and siphoning it will end up being $155B and a yearly burden after that since nobody wants to pay for even the $55B even if it's a bit faster. |
