obamas timid budget freeze

i read all the comments up thread...very informative, angry, and entertaining

social security, medicare-medicaid, interest on the national debt, and defense+2 wars make up the 80% of the budget obama says he wont touch

would you?

if i were the president of the USA i would.....

i would freeze social security,

i would have passed the health care bill, house version, which btw was at least 50% about cost containment...which the repubs dont want cause they want medicare to fail...so they called the cost containment death panels etc

the interest on the national debt...
well "ZIRP bernanke" is taking care of that isnt he

and finally

i would get out of iraq because the sunni shia and kurds are gonna kill each other no matter what...

and i would close 600 of the 700 foreign military bases the usa currently operates,

the rest of the military budget should be frozen as well...the usa spends more than all the rest of the nations on the planet combined...we will be ok

then

there would be a coup
