Martini after reading your comments I think you may becoming a Paulitarian:
- We believe in the wisdom of the founding fathers that created a federal
government with limited and enumerated powers.
- One of those and the
only one relegated solely to the federal government is the national
defense. It is the first and most important responsibility. So if you
ask me where the cuts should occur I would instantly say in all the
areas of federal government that go beyond its true purpose and if we
did that we not only would be able to significantly cut taxes but also
pay for as much national defense as we wanted. Unlike Rick Perry I
would have no problem giving you a list....in fact, I would give you the
list of agencies I would keep......it will be shorter.
- while we continue to spend $4 trillion on entitlement programs and other
discretionary spending that were never intended to be the role of the
federal government.the elephant in the room which is out of control federal spending on
entitlement programs and federal agencies that should have never been
created in the first place.
I dare say Ron Paul may be the only candidate who would agree with you on these statements.
