Well Genius... you freeze Government spending at a minimum. You don't hire anymore Federal employees. I'm sitting in meetings everyday right now talking about sequestration and the SES bosses keep saying how terrible things are going to be and then in the same breath say that there is no hiring freeze and to keep the process going. I run a small office of just 6 people and was just told last week that two more positions were funded making $90-110K per year! Let’s see... how about we eliminate the countless programs that just don't work. How about we eliminate entire Departments that the Federal government has no business running in the first place... we'll start with the Department of Education. How about we stop aid to foreign countries... and I'm not talking about just the countless poor third world countries where we don't want them to harbor terrorists; let’s stop aid to Ireland and Spain. Yeah, we give foreign aid to effing Ireland and Spain!!!
How about this novel concept... "What did we spend last year? Hmmm... let’s not spend as much this year!" Saying you will take money from the Military and give it to some Green Energy company instead isn't cutting spending. When what you spend next year is billions of dollars more than what you are spending this year, you did not cut spending!!!
