remember back in the 70's, after all the progress that was started with Johnson's "Great Society" was pulled back again, and republicans started running on platforms of promising to balance the budget? ( meaning make sure we get our paychecks, and cut out money that goes to the disenfranchised) do you remember how that simple and illogical claim worked? as far as what their interpretation of balancing the budget was?
lets look at what the budget is that needs balancing? what is the net worth of the United States? How many millions of acres of land, machines, buildings, assetts, etc? let's balance that. let's reduce the pay checks of all elected officials, judges, lawyers, and cops, and give 20 thousand dollars each to every inhabitant, in effect balancing out all the wealth that has been being hoarded while they pay themselves and dont share with the general republic. might that fix things?

Promises mean nothing anymore. Obviously we should try to spend our money more efficiently, but that might be askingn too much-haha.
