Public Expenditures

THE TRUTHLESS RECONCILER has been recently admonished to write about big bird, and so write about big bird the truthless reconciler shall. Big bird, of course, appears on semame street, on the public television system, which the amero fed gov has either already eliminated from its funding, or soon shall.

there is a movement afoot, evidently, to find a way to keep big bird, while ditching the rest of pbs.

and so be it. may PBS proceed and thrive, big bird and all. but let it happen with donations from proviate citizens, as it basically already does. with a government sixteen trillion in debt, it is time to start finding ways to cut the budget, revitalize the currency, increase government revenues, and spend them wisely.

Everything else should either by frozen, or cut, including entiltements and the military. Everything. That'll bring down the national debt, eh? Stop all social security increases, and put a limit on medicaid and medicare, or perhaps even combine them into one, aimed at poor people. If you are old, rich, or just plain well off, what need have you of medicare?

Means testing for social security would reduce payments to the wealthy, even though they deserve higher social security payments, since they paid in more.  yes, this is redistribution of wealth, pure socialism. but what of it? we already have socialism in america, and it works well.

we can have our cake , and eat it too, but we  must first bake a cake that works.
