As I recall Rand Paul released a suggested budget that balanced in just a year. That is the kind of thinking we need. These plans to make cuts in 5-10 years are fairy tales that the politicians have told one time too many.
Obama will save $500B just by bringing the troops home, no cuts needed.
As a matter of fact, two candidates have mentioned cutting out $1 trillion. Ron Paul. And Gary Johnson has proposed cutting $1.6 trillion. Talking about anything less than trillions is not even beginning to address the current problems and shows nothing more than a lack of understanding of the issue and rank cowardice. At least two men have the balls to address it. The others haven't got anything.
If they've seen FEMA in action, then they probably know how useless it is.Honestly, I don't see anyone senators or congressmen from a "hurricane" state agreeing to discontinue FEMA for example. Do you think this is realisitic? (Yes, I agree that it would be good, but realistic?

Has ANYONE said they can take a trillion out of it? Seriously, lets get out of our perfect world caps and back into our real life hats. If he can't or won't do it thats one thing, if he does do $500 billions that has to be considered a win, I think.
