Fifty-nine percent (59%) of U.S. voters worry that Congress and President Obama will increase government spending too much in the next year or two, according to a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey.

Only 17% have the opposite concern and are more worried that Congress and the president will cut taxes too much.

Sixty-three percent (63%) of voters expect government spending to go up under the Obama administration, while just 13% think it will go down.

We need to start cutting spending First let us cut all Agriclutural and loan programs and guarntees to the Farmersif they need money they can sell some of their real estate holdings. Should not hurt us livestock producers to much. Now let us close the Department of eduction did not have it at one time so could do without it. Maybe Homeland security could be tossed and go back where we were before. Cut off all loans to Isreal and all forgien aid. Do away with the Department of Enegry do not need it the enegry companies run in anyway Do not fund the United Nations. Roll back all government employees and elected officials salaries by 25%. Raise the fighting mens salary this would only apply to enlisted non-commissod personell and not any commissiion ones. Dept of health could be done away with, we know what we want as far as healthcare, and that is leave us alone to take care of ourselves. Do not fund any more highway programs if the roads get to bad people will not use them and stay at home. Get more money from oil leases grazing fees and timber and other resources on government land. Quit subsidizing the railroads, and airports, if they can not stand on their on then screw them. Let the ones that use them pay for them. No more pork spending if some locals want a museum then let them pay for it. Give every welfare pregnant person $5000 for every aborted fetus, this would be cheaper in the long run. One thing though do not mess with my social security and medicare. after all I have all ready drawn way more than I paid in. Do not mess with my ox. I say let the young people keep supporting me with their payment into Social Security and Medicare, after all I am living on a fixed income and they are not they are young and can get another job to to support us old gray headed farts. I know I saw a lot of us at the tea parties. (ironic isnt it)

That should help what do you think. I am not serious about some of this and some I am.

how many students does the Fed teach?

solution for winding down the failed education department... divide the money by the number of US citizen students in the US, and give each state a block Grant to use to improve their education, ... cut the grant by 5% every year until it is gone..
